Natural Gas is 20 mbar (8 inch W.G.).
Installation to LP Gas
This appliance must only be connected to LPG
after an LPG conversion kit has been fitted (see
section conversion to LPG). When operating on
Butane gas a supply pressure of 28 mbar (11
inch W.G.) is required. When operating on
Propane gas a supply pressure of 37 mbar (14
inch W.G.) is required. The installation must con-
form to the relevant British Standards.
Warning: Only a C.O.R.G.I. registered installer,
also with technical knowledge of electricity
should install gas hobs. They should observe the
Regulations and Codes of Practice governing
such installation of gas hobs.
Important: After installation check that all
connections are airtight.

CONVERSION TO LP GAS

Warning: Replacement of injectors must only be
undertaken by a qualified gas engineer and when
changing injectors to a different type of gas sup-
ply the instructions on adjustment and installation
on the particular category of gas supply must be
observed.
After conversion always carry out a gas leak test.
REPLACING INJECTORS (FIG. 7)
To replace the injectors proceed as follows: The
hob is preset with natural gas. The appliance is
preset with the injectors necessary for adaptation
to bottled gas (butane or propane), comprising a
hose connection.
If the hob has to be changed from natural gas,
proceed as follows:
- Remove the pan supports, the burner caps (A),
and the burners (B);
- Unscrew and remove the injector in the bottom
of each injector holder (C);
- replace the injector in accordance with the table
in page 3, tighten and screw right down;
- check that the system is gas-tight;
- replace the burners, the burner caps and the
pan supports.
IMPORTANT:
- Never over-tighten the injectors;
- after replacing, check that all the injectors are
airtight.
SETTING HOB BURNER MINIMUM LEVELS
If the hob is to work on bottled gas (butane/
propane), the tap by-pass must be screwed right
down. The hob may be equipped with type A
taps, with by-pass inside (accessed by inserting
a small screwdriver into the rod) or type B taps,
with by-pass on the outside on the right (ac-
cessed directly). See figure 8.
If the hob is to work on natural gas, proceed as
follows for both types of tap:
- Ignite the burner at maximum flame;
- pull off the knob, without using a lever against
the control panel, which might be damaged;
- access the by-pass with a small screwdriver
and back off by about 3 turns (turning the
screwdriver anti-clockwise);
- turn the tap rod anti-clockwise again until it
stops: the burner will be at maximum flame;
- screw the by-pass slowly back in, without push-
ing the screw-driver, until the flame has appar-
ently shrunk to 1/4 of the maximum size, check-
ing that it is sufficiently stable even in quite
strong draughts.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

For your safety please read the following infor-
mation
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
The appliance must be connected to a 220-240
volts 50 cycle AC supply by means of a three pin
socket, suitably earthed and should be protected
by a 3 amp fuse in the plug or a15 amp fuse in
the consumer unit.
The appliance is supplied with a rewireable 13
amp 3 pin plug fitted with a 3amp fuse. Should
the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced
with a fuse rated at 3 amp and approved to
BS1362.
If the mains plug is unsuitable for the socket out-
let in your home or is removed for any other rea-
son, then the cut off plug should be disposed of
safely to prevent the hazard of electric shock.
There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off
plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.
