CONNECTING THE COOKTOP TO THE GAS SUPPLY
The gas connection fitting (fig. 2.1) is made up of:
• the floating nut;
• the elbow;
• the gaskets;
• the conical pipe fitting - to be used for the United Kingdom only or if requested by the
applicable local regulations. In this case, before connecting the appliance to the gas
supply, fit the conical pipe fitting to the elbow interposing the gasket. If the conical pipe
fitting is not supplied with the appliance it can be purchased by contacting the After-
Sales Service.
The gas connection must be carried out by an authorised person according to the
relevant local standards.
• If using a flexible hose, make sure it does not come into contact with moving parts.
• The rear of the chassis is recessed to provide a channel for the appliance inlet pipe.
• The gas connection fitting can be turned in the direction required (but never in a vertical
or horizontal position) after loosening the elbow and floating nut connection.
• Never attempt to turn the elbow without having first loosened the floating nut.
• The supplied gaskets guarantee a good seal for the gas connection. We recommend
that you replace the gaskets on the slightest sign of wear, deformation or imperfection.
• After connecting to the gas mains, check that the couplings are correctly sealed, using
soapy solution, but never a naked flame.
FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM ONLY
Before connecting the appliance to the gas supply fit the conical pipe fitting (if
not supplied with the appliance it can be purchased by contacting the After-Sales
Service) to the elbow interposing the gasket.
The installation of the gas appliance to Natural Gas or LP Gas must be carried out
by a suitably qualified, registered installer. Installers shall take due account of
the provisions of the relevant British Standards Code of Practice, the Gas Safety
Regulations and the Building Standards (Scotland)(Consolidation) Regulations
issued by the Scottish Development Department.
