c) If the hood is installed below a wall cabinet, the latter

must be at least 700 mm (millimetres) above the sur-

face of the hob. Cabinets installed adjacent to the hood

must be at least 420 mm above the hob, as shown in

Figures C and D.

Making the Gas Connection

he appliance should be connected to the mains or to a

gas cylinder in compliance with current directives. Before

making the connection, check that the cooker is regulated

for the gas supply you are using. If not, follow the instruc-

tions indicated in the paragraph “Converting to Different

Types of Gas." On some models the gas supply can be

connected on the left or on the right, as necessary; to

change the connection, reverse the position of the hose

holder with that of the cap and replace the gasket (sup-

plied with the appliance). When using liquid gas from a

cylinder, install a pressure regulator which complies with

the National Regulations.

Important: Check that the supply pressure complies with

the values indicated in table 1 “Burner and Nozzle Char-

acteristics” since this will ensure safe operation, correct

consumption and ensure a longer life for your appliance.

Connection with a Hose

Make the connection using a gas hose that complies with

requirements set forth by the current standards. The in-

ner diameters of the pipe are as follows:

- 8 mm for liquid gas;

- 13 mm for methane.

When installing the hose, remember to take the following

precautions:

• No part of the hose must come into contact with parts

whose temperature exceeds 50°C;

• The length of the hose should be less than 1500 mm;

• The hose should not be subject to twisting or pulling,

and should not have bends or kinks;

• The hose should not touch objects with sharp edges,

corners or moving parts, and it should not be crushed;

• The full length of the hose should be easy to inspect in

order to check its condition.

Check that the hose fits firmly into place at the two ends

and fix it with clamps complying with current standards. If

any of the above recommendations can not be followed,

flexible metal pipes should be used. If the cooker is in-

stalled in compliance with the requirements for class 2,

subclass 1, it is highly recommended that the gas con-

nection be made with a flexible metal pipe in compliance

with current safety standards.

Connecting a Flexible, Jointless, Stainless Steel

Pipe to a Threaded Attachment

Remove the hose holder fitted on the appliance. The gas

supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male

attachment. Use only pipes and seals that comply with

current National Regulations. The full length of the pipe

when installed must not exceed 2000 mm. After the con-

nection has been made, make sure that the flexible metal

pipe does not come into contact with moveable parts and

that it is not crushed.

Checking the Seal

Important: Once the installation has been completed,

check to make sure that the seals on all the connections

are tight, using a soapy solution (never a flame).

Connecting the Power Supply Cord to the Mains

Install a normalised plug corresponding to the load indi-

cated on the data plate. When connecting the cable di-

rectly to the mains, install an omnipolar circuit-breaker with

a minimum contact opening of 3 mm between the appli-

ance and the mains. The omnipolar circuit breaker should

be sized according to the load and should comply with

current regulations (the earth wire should not be inter-

rupted by the circuit breaker). The supply cable should be

positioned so that it does not reach a temperature of more

than 50°C with respect to the room temperature, along its

length. Before making the connection, check that:

• The limiter valve and the home system can support

the appliance load (see data plate);

• The mains are properly earthed in compliance with cur-

rent safety standards and regulations;

• There is easy access to the socket and omnipolar cir-

cuit breaker, once the hob has been installed.

N.B.: Never use reducers, adaptors or shunts since they

can cause heating or burning.

Converting the Cooker to Different Types of Gas

In order to convert the cooker for use with a type of gas

different than the one for which it was factory set (indi-

cated on the label attached to the lid), the following steps

must be taken:

a) Replace the hose holder mounted on the appliance

with that supplied in the bag of “cooker accessories.”

Important: The hose holder for liquid gas is marked 8,

the hose holder for methane. In any case, always use a

new sealing gasket.

b) Replace the burner nozzles on the hob:

• Remove the grids and slide the burners from their

housings;

• 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”).

• Replace all the components by repeating the steps in

reverse order.
