Installation and connection
4 Installation and connection
You can find out where and how best to install your ap-
pliance here. You will also learn how to connect your
appliance to the power supply.
4.1 Gas connection
Only an authorised expert or a licensed customer ser-
vice technician may install the appliance in accordance
with the instructions specified under "Gas connection
and conversion to a different gas type".
¡ The settings for configuring your appliance can be
found on the rating plate on the rear of the appli-
ance. The gas type set at the factory is marked with
an asterisk (*).
¡ Find out about the local supply conditions regarding
the gas type and gas pressure before installing the
appliance, and ensure that the gas setting for the
appliance complies with this information.
¡ Connect and install this appliance in accordance
with the applicable to the installation instructions.
¡ Do not connect this appliance to a waste gas main
on the combustion products. Do not connect this
appliance to an exhaust gas outlet. Comply with all
ventilation regulations.
¡ Establish the gas supply using a permanent, non-
elastic connection, such as a gas pipe or a flexible
safety gas hose.
¡ If a flexible safety gas hose is used, ensure that the
hose is not jammed or squeezed. Keep the hose
away from hot surfaces.
¡ On some appliances, you can connect the gas pipe
to the gas pipe or flexible safety gas hose on the
right-hand or the left-hand side of the appliance. If
necessary, you can change the connection side.
The connection must have a free-standing and eas-
ily accessible locking device.
Target appliance operating pressure
¡ You can find the target operating pressure for your
appliance on the rating plate on the rear of the ap-
pliance.
¡ All the data on your appliance's rating plate relates
to these pressure values.
¡ The manufacturer is not responsible for results, per-
formance or any risk caused by operating the appli-
ance at different values.
Cook with only a little water.
¡ The more water that is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up.
Turn down to a lower power level early on.
¡ If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.
WARNING ‒ Risk of explosion!
Escaping gas may cause an explosion. If the gas pres-
sure in your distributing pipes is more than 20% higher
than the values specified on the appliance's rating
plate, a gas leak can occur.
For your own safety, it is imperative that you operate
▶
the appliance with a suitable gas governor.
If you do not know what the gas pressure in your
▶
gas distributing pipes is, please ask your local gas
company.
Connection, maintenance and setting of the gas
▶
governor must be carried out by an authorised in-
stallation specialist.
A gas leak could occur. If you move the appliance after
the gas supply has been established, a gas leak could
occur.
Do not move the appliance once the gas supply is
▶
connected.
If you move the appliance, check that the connec-
▶
tions are not leaking.
4.2 Electrical connection
The appliance must be connected by an authorised
specialist. You must comply with the requirements of
your electricity supplier.
¡ Your appliance is designed to operate at 220–
240 V. A 16 A fuse is required for connection.
¡ If the electricity supply drops below 180 V, the elec-
trical ignition system does not work.
¡ If the power cable of this appliance is damaged, this
must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufac-
turer's customer service or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent any risk.
¡ Any damage arising from the appliance being con-
nected incorrectly will invalidate the warranty.
Information on electrical connection by our customer
service:
¡ Connect the appliance in accordance with the spe-
cifications on the rating plate.
¡ The appliance must only be connected to an elec-
trical connection that corresponds to the applicable
regulations. The socket must be easily accessible
so that you can disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply if necessary.
¡ Ensure that a multi-pin disconnecting system is
available.
¡ For safety reasons, this appliance must only be con-
nected to an earthed connection. If the safety earth
terminal does not comply with regulations, protec-
tion against electrical risks is not guaranteed.
¡ To connect the appliance, use H 05 VV-F cables or
other equivalent cables.
