Before connecting to the power supply, make sure

that:

• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant

with the law.

• The socket can withstand the maximum power of

the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate.

• The voltage is in the range between the values

indicated on the data plate.

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the

appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the

plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. Do

not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power

supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily

accessible.

! The cable must not be bent or compressed.

! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced

by authorised technicians only (see Assistance).

! The manufacturer declines any liability should these

safety measures not be observed.

Gas connection

The appliance should be connected to the main gas

supply or to a gas cylinder in compliance with current

national regulations. Before carrying out the

connection, make sure the cooker is compatible with

the gas supply you wish to use. If this is not the case,

follow the instructions indicated in the paragraph

“Adapting to different types of gas.”

When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a

pressure regulator which complies with current

national regulations.

! 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 pipe (copper or steel)

! Connection to the gas system must be carried out in

such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on

the appliance.

There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting on the

appliance supply ramp and this is fitted with a seal in

order to prevent leaks. The seal must always be

replaced after rotating the pipe fitting (seal provided

with appliance). The gas supply pipe fitting is a

threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.

Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe

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 the tightness of the connection

! When the installation process is complete, check the

pipe fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never

use a flame.

Adapting to different types of gas

To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other than

default type (indicated on the rating 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 their

seats.

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 following the above

procedure in the reverse order.

4. Once this procedure is finished, replace the old

rating sticker with one indicating the new type of

gas used. Sticker are available from any of our

Service Centres.

• Adjusting the burners’ primary air :

Does not require adjusting.
