Installation
These instructions are intended for the qualified technician
installing the appliance in order to insure that the installation,
adjustments and maintenance procedures are performed
correctly and comply with the regulations currently in effect.
Important: the hob must be disconnected from the
power supply before making any adjustments or
performing any maintenance, etc.
The gas hob is not provided with a combustion product
discharge. It must be installed in a sufficiently ventilated space,
in terms of the laws in force.
The amount of air which is necessary for combustion must
not be below 2.0m
3 / h for each kW of installed power.
The gas hob can be fitted into a worktop as illustrated below.
These measurements must absolutely be observed in
so far as improper installation can cause the surrounding
surface areas to overheat. It is recommended that the
hob be installed at a distance of at least 55mm from the
back wall or other vertical surfaces to ensure that the air
circulates properly over the cooking area and to avoid
overheating the surrounding surfaces. A seal or gasket
is provided with the hob, make sure that it adheres
properly to the bottom part of the frame of the hob.
The seal must fit properly around the entire hob frame
and especially along the corners in order to create a
seal between the work top and the hob itself so as
to prevent spills or splashes from leaking into the
cabinet below.
The hob must be fixed into the worktop using the fixing
clamps (see diagram).
It is essential to install the hob on a totally flat surface. Any
damage caused by incorrect fitting may alter the characteristics
or impair performance.
Insert the hob into the hole, pressing firmly around the frame
to make it adhere to the counter top.
DO NOT overtighten screw 'A', one turn maximum will
be sufficient, after correctly fitting shaft 'B' into place
(as shown above). Ensure that the supporting surface
is perfectly even. Fit the appropriate expanded seal.
The hob must not be subjected to strains caused by
uneven supporting surfaces.
GAS CONNECTION:
Connect the hob to the gas cylinder or to the mains,
according to the prescribed standards in force. Ensure
beforehand that the hob is compatable to the type of gas
available.
Otherwise refer to section: 'Adaptation to Various
Types of Gas'.
Check that the feed pressure falls within the values
described in the table: 'User Characteristics'.
Rigid or Semi-Rigid Metal Connection:
Carry out the connection with fittings and metal pipes
(even flexible pipes) NB.When the installation is complete,
check for perfect sealing of the entire system by using a
soapy solution.
ISO 7/1
Adaptation to Various Types of Gas:
Should the hob be pre-set to a different type of gas to that
required/available, proceed as follows:
- replace the injectors with those for the type of gas to be
used (see table: 'User Characteristics'.
- to adjust to the minimum, use a screwdriver on the screw
placed on the tap, after turning the tap to its minimum
position. For LPG (butane/propane) screw tight.
