GAS INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Important!
•
This appliance must be installed and serviced only by a suitably qualified,
registered installer. The installer shall refer to the local standards in force.
•
Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any manufacturer's
warranty.
•
Before installation, make sure that the local distribution conditions (gas type and
pressure) and the adjustment of this appliance are compatible. The appliance
adjustment conditions are given on the plate or the label.
•
If the gas pressure (for which the appliance is to be used) is variable or if it is
not within the values indicated on the rating plate, it is mandatory to install a
proper gas pressure regulator which must be adjusted to guarantee the correct
operating pressure to the appliance (as per rating plate).
The regulator must be installed, adjusted and tested by a qualified technician.
WARNING: Using the appliance with a wrong and/or variable gas pressure may
•
be extremely dangerous and may result in serious injury to the user. Damage to
the appliance could occur if not observing this condition.
The manufacturer declines every responsibility for any inconvenience resulting
from the inobservance of this condition.
This appliance is supplied for use on LPG (PROPANE/BUTANE, 5 kPa; check the gas
regulation label attached on the appliance).
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 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.
