! If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or
if the cooker must be installed according to the
conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1 appliances
(installed between two cupboards), the flexible steel
hose must be used instead (see below).

Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
pipe to a threaded attachment

Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with
current national legislation.
To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on
the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance
is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).

! Perform the connection in such a way that the hose
length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres,
making sure that the hose is not compressed and
does not come into contact with moving parts.

Checking the connection for leaks

When the installation process is complete, check the
hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never
use a flame.

Adapting to different types of gas

It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas
other than the default type (this is indicated on the
rating label on the cover).

Adapting the hob

Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off
their seats.
2. Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket
spanner (see figure), and replace them with nozzles
suited to the new type of gas (see Burner and nozzle
specifications table

).

3. Replace all the components by following the
above instructions in reverse.

Replacing the nozzles on separate “double flame
“ burners:
1. remove the grids and slide the burners from their

housings. The burner consists of 2 separate parts
(see figure);

2. unscrew the burers with a 7 mm wrench spanner.

The internal burner has a nozzle, the external
burner has two (of the same size). Replace the
nozzle with models suited to the new type of gas
(see table 1).

3. replace all the components by repeating the steps

in reverse order.

Adjusting the hob burners’ minimum setting:
1. Turn the tap to the minimum position.
2. Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory
screw, which is positioned inside or next to the tap
pin, until the flame is small but steady.
! If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas
supply, the regulatory screw must be fastened as
tightly as possible.

3. While the burner is alight, quickly change the
position of the knob from minimum to maximum and
vice versa several times, checking that the flame is
not extinguished.

! The hob burners do not require primary air
adjustment.

! After adjusting the appliance so it may be used
with a different type of gas, replace the old rating
label with a new one which corresponds to the new
type of gas (these labels are available from
Authorised Technical Assistance Centres).

! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in
accordance with current national regulations relating to
“regulators for channelled gas”.
