Adapting the cooker to different types of gas

In order to adapt the cooker to a different type of gas with respect to the gas for which it was produced (indicated on the label attached to the lid), follow these steps:

a)replace the hose holder mounted on the appliance with that supplied in the bag of “cooker accessories”.

Important: the hose holder for liquid gas is marked 8, the hose holder for methane gas is marked 13. Always fit the sealing gasket.

b)Replacing the burner nozzles on the hob:

remove the grids and slide the burners from their housings;

unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner, and replace them with nozzles for the new type of gas (see table 1 “Burner and nozzle characteristics”).

replace all the components by repeating the steps in reverse order.

c)Minimum regulation of the hob burners:

• turn the tap to minimum;

• remove the knob and adjust the regulation screw, which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady.

N.B.: in the case of liquid gas, the regulation screw must be screwed in to the bottom.

• check that the flame does not turn off when you turn the tap quickly from high to low.

d Regulating the primary air of the burners:

The primary air of the burners requires no regulation.

Important

On completion of the operation, replace the old rating sticker with one indicating the new type of gas used. This sticker is available from our Service Centres.

Note

Should the pressure of the gas used be different (or vary) from the recommended pressure, it is necessary to fit a suitable pressure regulator onto the inlet pipe in compliance with current National Regulations relative to “regulators for channelled gas”.
