 Make sure that the gas supply pressure is

consistent with the values indicated in the Table of
burner and nozzle specifications (

see below

). This

will ensure the safe operation and durability of your
appliance while maintaining efficient energy
consumption.

Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose

Make sure that the hose complies with current
national legislation. The internal diameter of the hose
must measure: 8 mm for a liquid gas supply; 13
mm for a methane gas supply.

Once the connection has been performed, make
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”.
