Once the connection has been performed, make
GB
sure that the hose:
• Does not come into contact with any parts which
reach temperatures of over 50°C.
• Is not subject to any pulling or twisting forces and
that it is not kinked or bent.
• Does not come into contact with blades, sharp
corners or moving parts and is not compressed.
• Is easy to inspect along its whole length so that
its condition may be checked.
• Is shorter than 1500 mm.
• Fits firmly into place at both ends, where it will be
fixed using clamps which comply with current
national regulations.
! If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or
if the cooker must be installed in accordance with
the conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1
appliances (installed between two cupboards), the
flexible steel hose must be used instead ( see
below ).
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
pipe to a threaded attachment
Make sure that the hose complies with current
national regulations and that the aluminium gaskets
comply with UNI 9001-2, or the rubber gaskets
comply with current national regulations.
To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on
the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance
is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).
! Perform the connection in such a way that the hose
length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres,
making sure that the hose is not compressed and
does not come into contact with moving parts.
Checking the connection for leaks
When the installation process is complete, check the
hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never
use a flame.
Adapting to different types of gas
It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas
other than the default type (this is indicated on the
rating label on the cover).

Adapting the hob
Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off
their seats.
2. Unscrew the nozzles using
a 7 mm socket spanner ( see
figure ), and replace them with
nozzles suited to the new type
of gas ( see Table of burner
and nozzle specifications ).
3. Replace all the components
by following the above
instructions in reverse.
Adjusting the hob burners' minimum setting:
1. Turn the tap to the minimum position.
2. Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory
screw, which is positioned inside or next to the tap
pin, until the flame is small but steady.
! If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas
supply, the regulatory screw must be fastened as
tightly as possible.
3. While the burner is lit, quickly change the position of
the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa
several times, checking that the flame is not
extinguished.
! The hob burners do not require primary air adjustment.
! After adjusting the appliance so it may be used with a
different type of gas, replace the old rating label with a
new one which corresponds to the new type of gas (these
labels are available from Authorised Technical Assistance
Centres).
! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in
accordance with current standards EN 88-1 and EN
88-2 relating to "regulators for channelled gas".
