 Intensive or prolonged use of the appliance could

mean that extra aeration is needed, such as the

opening of a window or a more powerful fan.

 If there are other fuel burning appliances in the

same room, B.S. 5440 Part 2 Current Edition,

should be consulted to determine the requisite air

vent requirements.

Fitting the appliance

The appliance can be installed next to furniture units

which are no taller than the top of the cooker hob. The

wall in direct contact with the back panel of the cooker

must be made of non-flammable material. During

operation the back panel of the cooker could reach a

temperature of 50°C above room temperature. For

proper installation of the cooker, the following

precautions must be taken:

 The hob may be located in a kitchen, a kitonen/diner

or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower

room.

 The furniture standing next to the unit, that is higher

than the working boards, must be placed at least

600 mm from the edge of the board.

 The minimum distance combustible material can be

fitted above the hob in line with the edges of the

hob is 420mm. If is fitted below 420mm a space of

50mm must be allowed from the edges of the hob.

 In the event the cooktop is not installed above a

built-in oven, a wood panel must be inserted as

insulation. This panel must be placed at least 20

mm from the bottom of the cooktop itself.

Ventilation

When installing the cooktop above a built-in oven, the

oven should be placed on two wooden strips; in the

case of a joining cabinet surface, remember to leave a

space of at least 45 x 560 mm at the back (see

picture).

 The hob can only be installed above built-in

ovens provided with cooling ventilation.

Electrical connection

The cooktops fitted with a tripolar electrical supply

cord are designed to be be used with alternating

current according to the indications on the rating plate

located under the cooktop. The earthing wire can be

identified by its yellow-green colour.

In the case of installation over a built-in electric oven,

the electrical connections for the cooktop and oven

should be independent, not only for safety purposes,

but also to facilitate removal of one or both in the

future.

Electrical Connection for Gas Cooktop

Fit the supply cord with a standard plug for the

demand rate indicated on the rating plate or connect it

directly to the electrical mains. In the latter case, a

single pole switch must be placed between the

appliance and the mains, with a minimum opening

between the contacts of 3 mm in compliance with

current safety codes (the earthing wire must not be

interrupted by the switch). The power supply cord

must be positioned so that it does not reach a

temperature in excess of 50°C above room

temperature at any point.

 The installer must ensure that the correct electrical

connection has been made and that it is compliant

with safety regulations.

Before making the actual connection, make sure that:

The fuse and electrical system can withstand the

load required by the appliance;

That the electrical supply system is equiped with an

efficient earth hook-up according to the norms and

regulations prescribed by law;

That the plug or switch is easily accessible.

 The wires in the mains lead are coloured in

accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not

correspond with the coloured markings identifying the

terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the Green & Yellow wire to the terminal

marked E or or coloured Green or Green &

Yellow.

Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked L or

coloured Red.

Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked N or

coloured Black.

 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 cooktop should be connected to the gas supply

by an authorized installer. During installation of this

product it is essential to fit an approved gas tap to

isolate the supply from the appliance for the

convenience of any subsequent removal or servicing.

Connection of the appliance to the gas mains or liquid

gas tanks must be carried out according to the safety

standards currently in force, and only after it is

ascertained that it is suitable for the type of gas to be

used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the

section entitled, Adapting the Cooktop for Different

Types of Gas. If the cooktop is to be connected to

tanks containing liquid gas, use pressure regulators

that comply with current safety standards.

 To insure that the appliance operates safety, the gas

is regulated correctly and your appliance lasts over

time, make sure that gas pressure levels comply with

the indications given in Table 1, Nozzle and Burner

Specifications.

Gas Connection to Non-flexible Pipe

(copper or steel)

 Connection to the gas source must be done in such

a way as to not create any stress points at any part of

the appliance.

The appliance is fitted with an adjustable, "L" shaped

connector and a gasket for the attachment to the gas

supply. Should this connector have to be turned, the

gasket must be replaced (supplied with the

appliance).

The gas feed connector to the appliance is a

threaded, male 1/2" connector for round gas pipe.

Gas Connection to Flexible Steel Pipe

The gas feed connector to the appliance is a

threaded, male 1/2" connector for round gas pipe.

Only use pipes, tubes and gaskets that comply with

current safety codes. The maximum length of the

flexible pipes must not exceed 2000 mm. Once the

connection has been made, ensure that the flexible

metal tube does not touch any moving parts and is not

crushed.

Check the Seal

 Once the appliance has been installed, make sure

all the connections are properly sealed, using a soapy

water solution. Never use a flame.

Adapting the Cooktop for Different Types of Gas

To adapt the cooktop to a different type of gas than

that for which it was designed, (see the sticker under

the hob or on the packaging), the burner nozzles must

be changed, as follows:

1. Remove the pan supports and slide the burners out

of the cooktop.

2. Unscrew the nozzles using a 7mm socket wrench

and replace them with those for the new type of

gas. (See table 1, Burner and Nozzle

Specifications).

3. Reassemble the parts following the instructions in

reverse order.

4. On completing the operation, replace the old rating

label with the one showing the new type of gas; the

sticker is available from our Service Centres.

Regulation of Air Supply to the Burner

The burners do not need a primary air regulator.

Minimum Regulation

1. Turn the gas valve to minimum.

2. Remove the knob

and turn the regulator

screw (positioned either

on the side of the top or

inside the shaft)

clockwise until the flame

becomes small but

regular.

3. Make sure that, when the knob is turned rapidly

high to low, the flame does not go out.

4. In the event of a malfunction on appliances with the

security device (thermocouple) when the gas

supply is set at minimum, increase the minimum

supply levels using the regulator screw.

 In the case of liquid gas, the regulation screw must

be fully screwed in (clockwise).

 Once the adjustment has been made, apply sealing

wax, or a suitable substitute, to the old seals on the

by-pass.

GB

 If the gas pressure is different than that prescribed, a

pressure regulator must be installed at the source, in

compliance with national standards governing the use

of piped gas regulators.
