Connecting the gas hose
• Have your appliance connected in a
way that it will be close to the gas
connection and avoid gas leakage.
• Plastic hose to be used must not be
longer than 125 cm.
• Install the clamp to the hose. Soak one
end of the hose (15 mm inner diameter)
into boiling water for one minute to
soften it.
• Then, slip the softened end of the hose
completely onto the sharp hose end of
your appliance. Finally, tighten the
clamp with a screwdriver.
• Repeat the same procedure for the
other end of the hose and complete
the gas bottle connection.
• Never forget to make the gas leakage
control.
DANGER
Risk of explosion and
suffocation!
LPG bottles must not be stored in
the house.
• If you need to use your appliance later
with a different type of gas, you must
consult the authorised service for the
related conversion procedure.

appliance are turned off. Make sure
that the gas supply is on. Prepare
soapy foam and apply it onto the
connection edge of the hose for gas
leakage control.

leakage. In this case, inspect the gas
connection once again.
Important
Never use a match or lighter to
check for gas leakage.
