The labels on the Hob indicate the types of gas that can be used.
It is possible to use other types of gas after carrying out simple modifications.
Warning: If gas can be smelt in the vicinity of this appliance turn off the gas supply to
the appliance and call the engineer directly.
Do not search for a leak with a naked flame.

Adapting the hob to different types of gas

To adapt the Hob for use with different types of gas, carry out the following instructions:
— remove the grids and burners
— insert the hexagonal spanner (supplied) into the burner support (Fig. 5)
— unscrew the injector and replace it with one suitable for the gas to be used (see

Table below)

— regulate minimum flame and flame combustion (see nexts chapters).

Regulating the minimum flame

After lighting the burners, turn the control knob to the minimum setting and then re-
move the knob (this can easily be removed by apply a gentle pressure).
Using a small «Terminal» type screwdriver the regulating screw can be adjusted as in
Fig. 8. Turning the screw clockwise reduces the gas flow, whilst turning it anticlockwise
increases the flow – Use this adjustment to obtain a flame of approximately 3 to 4 mm
in length and then replace the control knob.
If GPL (cylinder) gas is being used, turn the screw clockwise right to the end of the
travel of the by-pass.

REGULATING THE BURNERS

Flame Combustion

For maximum efficiency from the burners, the correct combustion of the flame is necessary.
A good flame must be well aligned and without yellow tips (Fig. 7/B). If there is insufficient
air the flame will be uneven with yellow tips (Fig. 7/A). If there is too much air, the flame
will be very short and bright (Fig. 7/C). In these cases the combustion must be adjusted by
re-fitting the carburation tube to the Venturi (where there is insufficient air) or removing the
carburation tube (in the case of too much air). To position the carburation tube, the fixing
screws must be loosened, and retightened when the satisfactory combustion is obtained.
Standard regulation values are stated in fig. 6 and following table.
