GAS CONNECTION

Before connecting the appliance check that the
data on the rating plate affixed to the cooker,
correspond to those of the gas mains.
A label on the back of this handbook and at
the back of the cooker gives the appliance
adjustment conditions, that is, the type of gas
and operating pressure.
Once the cooker is installed, check there are no
leaks using a soapy solution (never a flame).
The appliance's gas inlet fitting is a threaded 1/2"
male cylindrical type, in compliance with the ISO
228-1 standards. If gas is distributed through ducts
the appliance must be connected to the gas mains with:
• a rigid steel pipe, in accordance with standards,
whose joints must be made using threaded fittings
in accordance with the UNI-ISO 7/1 standard. The
use of hemp with suitable adhesives or Teflon tape
as a sealant is allowed.
• copper pipe, in accordance with the standard,
whose joints must be made using sealed fittings in
accordance with the standard.
• a flexible stainless steel, seamless pipe in
accordance with the standard, with a maximum 2
metre extension and seals in accordance with the
standard.
• a flexible rubber hose in accordance with the
standard, with an 8 mm diameter for LPG and 13
mm for natural gas or town gas, maximum 1500
mm in length, firmly secured to the hose fitting with
a safety clamp as per the standard.
If the gas is supplied directly from a gas cylinder,
