INSTALLATION
The appliance must be installed by qualified staff working in ac-
cordance with the regulations in force.
Before installing, ensure that the appliance is correctly preset for
the local distribution conditions (gas type and pressure).The preset-
tings of this appliance are indicated on the nameplate shown on
the cover.This appliance is not connected to a flue gas extractor
device. It must be installed and connected in accordance with the
regulations in force.This appliance may only be installed and may
only operate in rooms permanently ventilated in accordance with
national regulations in force.
SAFETY CHAIN
! In order to prevent the appliance from overturning acciden-
taly, for example in case of a children climbing onto the oven
door, the safety chains MUST be installed !
The cooker is provided with safety chains that must be fixed with a
screw (not supplied as accessory) on the wall behind the appliance,
at the same height as the fixing point on the appliance.
Make sure that the chains are fixed in the back of the cooker, as
shown in the fig. 9, in such way to be tight and parallel to the floor.
! When the installation process is complete, the chains must be
kept in tension!
VENTILATION
The rooms in which gas appliances are installed must be well
ventilated in order to allow correct gas combustion and ventilation.
The air flow necessary for combustion is at least 2 m3/h for each
kW of rated power.
POSITIONING
Remove the packaging accessories, including the films covering the
chrome-plated and stainless steel parts, from the cooker.
Position the cooker in a dry, convenient and draft-free place. Keep
at an appropriate distance from walls which may be damaged by
heat (wood, linoleum, paper, etc.).
The cooker may be free-standing (class 1) or between two units
(in class 2 st 2-1) the sides of which must withstand a temperature
of 100°C and which must not be higher than the working table.
FITTING THE FEET (LEVELLING)
Cookers are equipped with adjustable feet to be screwed into their
front and rear corners respectively. The feet allow the height of the
appliance to be adjusted, in order to set it flush with the adjoining
unit, to level it with other worktops and to ensure even distribution
of the liquids in pans. See fig. 3.
BALANCING THE LID
Models equipped with plate glass lids are fitted with special ba-
lanced springs. These are fitted into the hinge to provide smooth,
gentle lid closure.
GAS CYLINDER CONNECTION
Make the connection to the butane-propane cylinder using an
approved hose from 75 to 80 cm long, following the route shown
in figure 4.The hose must not touch the side near the oven. The
maximum gas cylinder size is diameter 31 cm and height 60 cm,
with capacity from 10 to 13 kg.
CONNECTING TO THE GAS SUPPLY
Before connecting the cooker, check that it is preset for the gas
to be used. Otherwise, make the conversion as described in the
section headed “Adapting to different gas types”. The connection
is on the right; if the pipe has to pass behind the cooker, it must
be kept low down where the temperature is about 50 degrees C.
- Rigid connection (see Figure 5, diagram D):
The connection to the mains gas supply may be made using a
rigid metal pipe (D). Remove the hose connector and screw the
rigid union onto the threaded connection of the gas train. The
union for rigid connection is amongst the cooker accessories.
Installation
- Connection using a rubber hose (see Figure 5, diagrams B and
C):
Connect a rubber hose carrying the conformity mark currently in
force to the hose connector. The hose must be replaced at the
date indicated, and must be secured at both ends using standard
hose clamps. It must be absolutely accessible to allow its condition
to be checked along its entire length.
- Connection using a metal hose (see Figure 5, diagram D):
Make the connection using a hose which complies with national
standards, screwing it onto the connector with a ring seal, which
is delivered amongst the cooker accessories.
- After installation, check that all connections are airtight.
- For operation with butane/propane, check that the gas pressure
is as indicated on the nameplate.
IMPORTANT:
- Use only standard rubber hoses. For LPG, use a hose which
complies with the national regulations in force.
- Avoid sharp bends in the pipe and keep it well away from hot
surfaces.
References to the regulations covering the gas connection to the
appliance: ISO 7-1.
ADAPTING TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS
If the cooker is not already preset to operate with the type of gas
available, it must be converted. Proceed as follows:
- Replace the injectors (see table on page 18);
- regulate the primary air flow;
- regulate the minimum settings.
N.B.: every time you change the type of gas, indicate the new type
of gas on the serial number label.
REPLACING THE HOB BURNER INJECTORS (Fig. 6)
- Remove the grid, 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 18 using
a 7 mm socket wrench, tighten and screw right down;
- check that the system is gas-tight;
- replace the burners, the burner caps and the grid.
IMPORTANT:
- Never over-tighten the injectors;
- after replacing, check that all the injectors are airtight.
SETTING HOB BURNER MINIMUM LEVELS
If the cooker is to work on bottled gas (butane/propane), the tap
by-pass must be screwed right down.The cooker 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 (accessed directly). See figure 7.
If the cooker 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 pushing the screw-driver,
until the flame has apparently shrunk to 1/4 of the maximum size,
checking that it is sufficiently stable even in quite strong draughts.
CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICAL MAINS
Before making the connection, check that:
- the mains voltage is as indicated on the nameplate;
- the earth connection is in good working order.
If the appliance power lead is not fitted with a plug, use an approved
standard type, remembering that:
- the green-yellow wire must be used for the earth connection;
- the blue wire is the neutral;
