* Replace the sealing washer/s on the slightest sign of
deformation or imperfection. The sealing washer/s is/are the
part/s which guarantee/s a good seal in the gas connection.
* After connecting to the mains, check that the couplings are
correctly sealed, using soapy solution, but never a naked flame.
* To fix the parts it is necessary to operate with 2 spanners (fig. 2.9).
* The connection with rigid metal pipes must not cause stress or pressure to
the gas piping.
* The rigid or flexible pipes must conform with applicable local regulations.
The flexible pipe shall be of the correct construction for the type of gas
being used.
* Make sure the flexible pipe can easily be inspected along its entire length to
check its condition; it must be replaced before the expiry date (marked on
the pipe) or if it shows signs of wear or damage. Make sure the flexible pipe
does not come into contact with sharp edges, corners or moving parts.
* Use a single flexible pipe only; never connect the appliance with more than
one flexible pipe.
* Make sure the flexible pipe is not under tension, twisted, kinked or too
tightly bent, neither while the appliance is in use nor while it is being
connected or disconnected.
* Make sure the flexible pipe does not exceed 2000 mm in length or 750 mm
for a rubber hose (or refer to applicable local regulations).
* If using a flexible pipe which is not entirely made of metal, make sure that it
does not come into contact with any part of the appliance with a surface
* temperature of 70°C or above (or refer to applicable local regulations).
* When using a rubber hose for the gas connection, make sure it is as short as
possible, without twists or kinks. To avoid any possible abrasion, make sure the
hose does not come into contact with sharp edges, corners or moving parts.
* Make sure the hose is not subject to excessive heat by direct exposure to
flue products or by contact with hot surfaces.
* The rigid or flexible pipe must be replaced if it shows signs of wear or damage.
* The rigid or flexible pipe must not be exposed to cleaning products (to
avoid any possible corrosion).
* The customer must be informed that the gas shutoff valve ahead of the
appliance should be closed when the product is not in use.
