Gas Connection - Miele CS 1013-1 Operating And Installation Instructions


According to the Gas Safety
(Registration of Gas Installers and
Gas Contractors) Regulations, any
gas installation work including the
installation of appliances and
connecting tubing, must be
undertaken by a registered gas
installer who is registered for that
appropriate class and is employed
by a registered gas contractor. The
installer is responsible for ensuring
that the appliance functions correctly
when installed.
Use approved gas tubing for
connection to appliances.
The gas connection must be
installed so that connection can be
made either from inside or outside
the kitchen unit. The isolating valve
must be easily accessible and visible
(by opening the kitchen door if
necessary).
Check with your local gas supplier
about the type of gas its calorific
value and compare this information
with the type of gas quoted on the
appliance's data plate.
This hob is not connected to an
exhaust flue.
When installing and connecting the
appliance please observe all relevant
installation instructions and ensure it
has adequate ventilation once
installed.

Gas connection

Connection to the gas supply must
be carried out in strict accordance
with current local regulations. Every
appliance should have its own easily
accessible isolating valve and test
point.
Any special local conditions relating
to gas installations as well as
building regulations must also be
observed.
Gas connections, pipes and
connection cables can suffer
damage if exposed to heat from the
hob.
After installation make sure that
neither the gas pipe nor the mains
cable can come into contact with hot
parts of the appliance and that the
gas pipe and connections on the hob
cannot come into contact with hot
gas exhaust.
Flexible gas pipes can be damaged
by incorrect routing.
Attach flexible gas pipes in such a
way so that they do not come into
contact with any moving kitchen
parts (e.g. a drawer) and are not
exposed to mechanical stress.
The hob must be set for local gas
conditions and the gas connection
must undergo a leakage test.
