reaches the full on position (large flame fig.
I), then
placea lightedmatchnearthe burner.
- Electricalignition
Push and turn the knob corresponding to the

question and repeat the previously indicated
operations.
Keep the knob depressed for about
10 seconds
once the burner has ignited.
HOW TO USE THE BURNERS

- The exact position of the pan support r
established by the rounded corners, whic
should be set towards the side edge of the hc
plate.
- Do not forcethetaps if theyaredifficult to ope
or close. Contact the technical assistanc
servicefor repairs.
- Correctly preserve the plate after use b
treating it with special products, easil

INSTALLATION
TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR
INSTALLATION PERSONNEL
This appliance must be installed only by
authorisedpersonnel and in accordance withthe
regulations of the Gas Installation Code AG601
and Electricityauthorities.
h
The wall and bench surfaces must be capable of
sustainingtemperatures of
75 degrees Celsius.
All laminates, fixing adhesive and surfacing
materials should be certified suitable for this
temperature.
Refer to figures
9 - 10 for required clearances
aroundappliance.
NOTE
1:
fire resistant material (eg ceramictiles) is requiredto
450 mm above burner top if wall or vertical structures
arewithin
200 mm from burner.
NOTE 2:
rangehood and exhaust system are not permitted
within
600 mm above burnertops.
4) INSTALLINGTHE HOT PLATE
Check that the appliance is in a good condition after
having removed the outer packaging and internal
wrappings from around the various loose parts. In
case of doubt, do not use the appliance and contact
qualifiedpersonnel.
Never leave thepackacing materials (cardboard,
bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within-
children's reach since they could become
potentialsourcesof danger.
The measurements of the opening made in the top
of the modular cabinet and into which the hot plate
will beinstalledare indicated ineitherfig. 9 and 10.
Always comply with the measurements given for
the hole into wich the appliance will be recessed
(seefig. 9-1
0 and 11).
The appliance belongs to class 3 and is
therefore subject to all the provisions
established by the provisions governing such
appliances.
5) FIXINGTHE HOT PLATE
The hotplatehas a specialsealwhich prevents liquid
from infiltratinginto the cabinet. Strictly comply with
the following instructions in order to correctly apply
this seal:
- Detach the seals from their backing, checking that
the transparent protection still adheres to the seal
itself.
- Overturn the hot plate and correctly position seal
"E (fig. 12) on top of the upturned edge of the
hotplateflat with the outer side of the strip in line
with the external perimeter of the top, make
attention don't sink the seal between the space
bottomltoprim.
- Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hot plate,
pressingit inplacewith the fingers.
- Fix the hob with the proper brackets "S" and fit the
prominent part into the porthole
"H" on the bottom;
tum the screw
"F' until the bracket "S" stick on the
top (fig.
13).
- During the hob fixing thru the proper hooks, seal,

6) GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection islocated inthe rear and on the
underside of the appliance 100 mm from the right
handside.
Natural Gas
Both Natural and Town Gas installations require the
connection of a gas regulator at the appliance. This
regulator is supplied with the appliance on
purchase.
Assemble the regulator (noting the gas flow
direction) and transition pieces (supplied with the
appliance), inaccordancewith figure 14.
The transition piece on the supply side of the
regulatormust be providedbythe installer.
LiquifiedPetroleum Gas
In a LPG installation the gas regulation is made at
the gas cylinder and regulation at the appliance is
not required. To connect supply to the appliance
use transition pieces as shown in figure 15. These
pieces are supplied with the appliance on purchase.
WARNING:
THE BURNER FLAME MUST BE ADJUSTED BY
THEINSTALLER.
FAULTY INSTALLATION WILL NOT BE
COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

electricity main beforemaking any adjustments.
All seals must be replaced by the technician at
theend of any adjustments or regulations.
Our burners do not require primary air
adjustment
a)Data Label
The Data Label is located on the underside of the
hotplate.
A duplicate Data Labelis suppliedto adhere
in an accessible area next to the hotplate. This
hotplate is suitable for Natural Gas and Universal
LPG; ensure that the available gas supply matches
the DataLabel.
b) Before Leaving
Check that there are no gas leaks, but do not use a
naked flame to detect gas leaks. Igniteall burnersto
ensure correct operation of gas valves, burners,
ignition and if fitted, flame failure valves. Turn gas
taps to low flame position and observe stability of the
flame. When satisfied with the hotplate, please
instruct the user on the correct method of operation.
In case the appliance falls to operate correctly after
all checks have been carried out, refer to the
authorisedservice provider inyour area.
8) TAPS
Our taps are suitable for all the gas, they are male
conical type at one way.
"Reduced rate" adjustment
- Switch on the burner and turn the relative knob to
the "Reduced rate"position(smallflame fig. 1).
- Removeknob "M (fig. 19)of the tap, which issimply
pressedon to its rod.
- Insert a small screwdriver "D" into hole "C" (fig. 19)
and turn the throttle screw to the nght or left untilthe
burner flame has been adequately regulated to the
"Reduced rate" position.
Check that the flame does not go out when the knob
is sharply sw~tchedfrom the "Full on" to the "Reduced
rate"position.
It is understood that only burners operating with
Natural gas should be subjected to the above
mentioned adjustments.
The s&ew must be fully
locked when the burners operafe with Liquid gas.

NOTE:
BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE REQUIRING
REPLACEMENT OF
A COMPONENT IS
UNDERTAKEN ENSURE THAT THE
ELECTRICAL LEAD HAS BEEN ISOLATED AND
REMOVED FROM THEPOWER POINT.
To replace the components fit inside the hob is
necessary to take off the pan supports and the
burnersfrom the upper partof the working table, then
unscrew the burnerfixing screws
"V" (fig. 21) andthe
control knobs, fixed by a simple pressure, in order to
take off the workingtable.
After having carried out the above listed operat~ons,
the burners (fig. 22), taps (fig. 23) and electrical
componentscanall be replaced (fig. 24).
It is advisable to change seal
"D" each time a tap is
changed inorder to ensure a perfecttightness.
Greasing thetaps (see fig. 25 - -26)
If a tap becomes stiff to operate, it must
immediately greased in compliance with
1
following instructions:
- Removethe tap.
- Clean the cone and its housing using a cl~
soaked incilluent.
- Lightlyspreadthe cone with the relative grease.
- Fit the cone back in place, operate it several tin
and then remove it again. Eliminate any excc
grease and check that the gas ducts have
