Adapting The Hob To Different Types Of Gas; Regulating The Minimum Flame; Using The Gas Burner; Maintenance And Cleaning - Hoover 4Gas-L1-STD Notice D'emploi

IMPORTANT: carry out a final check for leaks on the pipe
connections using a soapy solution. NEVER USE A FLAME.
Also, make sure that the flexible pipe cannot come into contact
with a moving part of the cabinet (eg.adrawer) and that it is not
situated where it could be damaged.
Warning: If gas can be smelt in the vicinity of this appliance turn off
the gas supply to the appliance and call the engineer directly. Do not
search for a leak with a naked flame.
2.3. ADAPTING THE HOB TO DIFFERENT
TYPES OF GAS
To adapt the Hob for use with different types of gas, carry out the
following instructions:
•Remove the grids and burners
•Insert on hexagonal spanner (7 mm) into the burner support
(Figure7)
•Unscrew the injector and replace it with one suitable for the gas to be
used (see gas type table)

2.4. REGULATING THE MINIMUM FLAME

After lighting the burners, turn the control knob to the minimum setting
and then remove the knob (this can easily be removed by applying
gentle pressure).
Using a small «Terminal» type screwdriver the regulating screw can
be adjusted as in Figure 9. Turning the screw clockwise reduces the
gas flow, whilst turning it anticlockwise increases the flow – Use this
adjustment to obtain a flame of approximately 3 to 4 mm in length and
then replace the control knob.
When the gas supply available is LPG - the screw to set the idle flame
must be turned (clockwise) to the end stop.
When you have carried out the new gas regulation, replace the old gas
rating plate on your appliance with one (supplied with hob) suitable for
the type of gas for which it has been regulated.

For best results, use cooking vessels with a flat surface. The size of
the surface should match the gas burner side as follows. Table A.
Ø pan/pot
Burner Type
AUX Auxiliary 10 - 18
SR Semi Rapid 12 - 22
R Rapid 16 - 26
DC 4 kW Mono 16 - 26
DC 4,2 kW Mono 16 - 26
DC 4,5 kW Mono 16 - 26
The gas burner should be regulated so that the flame does not overlap
the base of the pan. Vessels with a concave or convex base should not
be used.
WARNING: If a flame is accidentally extinguished, turn the knob
to the off position and do not attempt to re-ignite if for at least 1
minute.
