 Check that the pressure of the gas supply is
consistent with the values indicated in Table 1
(“Burner and nozzle specifications”). This will ensure
the safe operation and longevity of your appliance
while maintaining efficient energy consumption.
Connection with a rigid hose (copper or steel)
 Connection to the gas system must be carried out
in such a way as not to place strain of any kind on
the appliance.
An adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting is found on the
appliance supply ramp; it is fitted with a seal in
order to prevent leaks. The seal must always be
replaced after rotating the pipe fitting (the seal is
provided with the appliance). The gas supply pipe
fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male
attachment.
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
hose to a threaded attachment
The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas
cylindrical male attachment.
These pipes must be installed so that they are never
longer than 2000 mm when fully extended. Once
connection has been carried out, make sure that the
flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts
and is not compressed.
 Only use pipes and seals that comply with current
national regulations.
Checking for gas tightness
 When the installation process is complete, check
the pipe fittings for leaks using a soapy solution.
Never use a flame.
Adapting the hob to different types of gas
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other
than the default type (indicated on the data plate at
the base of the hob or on the packaging), the burner
nozzles should be replaced as follows:
1. Remove the hob
grids and slide the
burners off.
2. Unscrew the nozzles
using a 7 mm socket
spanner, and replace
them with nozzles for
the new type of gas
(see Table 1 “Burner and nozzle characteristics”).
3. Reassemble the parts repeating the above
procedure in the reverse order.
4. Replace the old rating sticker with one indicating
the new type of gas used, once this procedure is
completed. Stickers are available from any of our
Customer Service Centres.
• Adjusting the burners’ primary air:
No primary air adjusting is required.
• Burner minimum setting
1. Turn the tap to minimum.
2. Remove the knob
and turn the adjustment
screw, which is in or
next to the tap pin, until
the flame is small but
steady.
3. Check that the flame does not go out when turning
the knob quickly from maximum to minimum.
4. Some appliances have a safety device
(thermocouple) fitted. If the device fails to work
when the burners are set to minimum, increase
the flame setting using the adjustment screw.
5. Once the adjustment has been made, replace the
seals on the by-passes using sealing wax or a
similar substance.
 If the appliance is connected to liquid gas, the
adjustment screw must be fastened tightly.
 Once this procedure is completed, replace the old
rating sticker with one indicating the new type of gas
used. Stickers are available from any of our
Customer Service Centres.
 Should the pressure of the gas be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet pipe (in
order to comply with current national regulations).
