LPG CONVERSION
model EFE916BA
This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage.
A conversion kit is included with the product for Universal
LPG usage. The conversion kit contains 10 injectors and 1
LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit
UNIVERSAL LPG is required.
1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner
crowns to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the
factory fitted injectors with the appropriate injectors, as
supplied. Refer to injector orifice table for injector sizes.
The injector size is stamped on the side of the injector.
2. Unscrew the hex nut from the regulator. The hex nut,
brass washer and nylon insert will disengage as
an assembly.
3. Unclip the nylon insert from the nut assembly by
rotating the insert 1/4 turn, and pulling it free.
4. Turn over the insert, and clip back into position.
5. Refit the hex nut assembly to the regulator ensuring
that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set
for connection to LPG.
6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection
check for leaks using soapy water: each hotplate valve
should be turned on, one at a time, and the injector
hole blanked off for several seconds.
7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by
connecting a manometer to the pressure test point
located on the side of the regulator body adjacent to
the outlet.
With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure:
• W hen all burners of the appliance are operating
at maximum,
• W hen the smallest burner of the appliance is
operating at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not
vary from the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa by
more than ±0.52kPa.
8. If the regulator appears to not be performing
satisfactorily then check the following points:
• I f the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the
inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an
upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream
regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may
be present in the gas supply line. If this is suspected
then it may be necessary to repeat the checks
whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure
to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range 2.75
– 7.00kPa.
• C heck that the insert has been fitted correctly.
• Check that the turret screw is fully screwed down.
• C heck that the regulator has been fitted to the gas
supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on
the base of the body indicates the direction of
gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the
regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner
it should be replaced.
9. One by one, turn the knobs to minimum and screw
in the bypass screw (accessible when the knob is
removed) until a small stable flame results. Turn the
knob to maximum and then back to minimum to
ensure that the correct minimum flame is maintained.
10. Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas
supply inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is
factory fitted.
