Electrical connection
An electrical 10 amp socket needs to be within 1 m of
the hotplate to allow electrical connection. The socket
must remain accessible after installation of the
appliance.
Important notes:
This appliance is connected to the mains (240 VAC)
■
by means of the connecting lead which must be
fixed to the kitchen unit to prevent it from coming
into contact with hot parts of the cooktop (or an oven
installed underneath) and remain accessible after
installation of the cooktop.
When making this connection make sure that the
lead cannot come into contact with hot parts of the
cooktop.
This appliance must be earthed. When connecting
■
the cooktop ensure that the earth wire is connected
first and that all wires are connected to the correct
terminals.

Installation and connection
Gas connection
During the planning stage, consider the position of
supply connections.
The cooktop must be connected to the gas supply with
upstream connection of an isolation valve in
accordance with the respectively valid regulations. We
recommend that the isolation valve be fitted prior to the
cooktop to enable isolation of cooktop from gas supply.
The valve must be easily accessible at all times.
To find out the factory set gas type, see bottom of
cooktop next to gas connection.
Remove plastic cap from gas supply line prior to
installation.
Fit regulator (N.G.) or a test point (Propane) directly to
the R 1/2'' connection.
Direction of gas flow is indicated on the rear of the
regulator.
Position of the inlet connection:
Use pipe compound or thread sealant, properly
threaded pipes and careful assembly procedure so that
there is no cross threading, etc., which might cause
damage or leakage.
Make sure that all connections performed are free of
leakage. The manufacturer does not accept any liability
for leakage on connections performed by the installer or
if the L-tube is moved or twisted.
There are two ways to carry out the connection to the
main gas line:
The hotplate can be connected with rigid pipe as
■
specified in AS/NZS 5601.1
Flexible Hose: If installing with a hose assembly, it
■
must comply with AS/NZS 1869, 10 mm ID, class B
or D, no more than 1.2 m long and installed in
accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1.
Ensure that the hose does not contact the hot surfaces
of the hotplate, oven, dishwasher or any other
appliance that may be installed underneath or next to
the hotplate. The hose should not be subjected to
abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and
should be able to be inspected along its entire length
with the cooktop in the installed position. Unions
compatible with the hose fittings must be used and all
connections tested for gas leaks.
