Instructions for the Installer

9. GAS CONNECTION

Before installing, check that the local gas main (type and pressure) and the appliance's settings are compatible.

There are 2 ways to connect the appliance to the domestic gas main:

1- Make two branches with a pipe or steel hose and unite them with a T- fitting just downline of the gas main fitting, or

2- Unite the two gas fittings on the appliance itself with a pipe and intercept the gas main fitting at the T-fitting.

In both cases, all pipes connected to the gas main must be equipped with a safety shut off valve.

The connection to the gas mains may be made using a copper pipe or a continuous-wall steel hose in accordance with the relevant regulations. When installation is complete, check for any leaks with a soapy solution, never with a naked light. The appliance has been tested for G20 (2H) natural gas at the pressure of 20 mbar.

For use with other types of gas, see point. "10. ADAPTING TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS".

The gas intake connection has an external ½" gas thread (ISO 228-1).

Connection with copper pipe: The connection to the gas supply mains must be made so that no stresses or strains of any kind are applied to the appliance. The connection can be made using the adapter unit C with two conical elements, always fitting the gasket A supplied.

Connection with steel hose: Use only continuous wall steel hoses which comply with the relevant regulations, and always fit the provided gasket A between the hob fitting and the hose itself B.

When connecting with a hose, ensure that the total length of the pipeline is not more than 1.5 metres; also ensure that the hoses do not touch moving parts and are not crushed.

9.1Bottled gas connection

Use a pressure regulator and make the connection to the gas cylinder in accordance with the relevant regulations. Make sure that the gas supply pressure is as stated in the table in point "10.2 Burner and Nozzle Data Tables".

In this case as well, use a copper pipe or a continuous wall steel hose.
