GAS SUPPLY:
■The connection must be performed by an authorised person according to the
relevant standards.
■Before connecting the appliance to the gas main, mount the brass conical adap-
tor onto the gas inlet pipe, upon which the gasket has been placed (figs. 4-5).
Conical adaptor and gasket are supplied with the appliance (packed with con-
version kit for use with Natural gas or Propane gas).
■This appliance is suitable for use with Natural Gas or Propane gas. (Check the
“gas type” sticker attached to the appliance).
■For Natural Gas models the gas supply is connected to the pressure regulator
which is supplied with the appliance (fig. 5). Adjust the regulator to obtain a test
point pressure of 1 kPa with the two semi-rapid (SR) burners operating at maxi-
mum.
■For Propane gas models the gas supply is connected to the test point adaptor
which is supplied with the appliance (fig. 4) and ensure that the supply pressure
is regulated to 2.75 kPa.
■The connection must be made at the rear of appliance (left or right); the pipe
does not cross the cooker.
■The inlet not used must be closed off with the cap and sealing gasket supplied.
■IMPORTANT: Use two spanners to tighten or loosen the connecting pipe (fig. 6)

1. After connecting the gas supply, check the piping and connections for leaks using
a soap and water solution. The presence of bubbles indicates a leak, tighten or
replace connections as appropriate.
Warning: Do not use any naked flame to check for leaks.
2. Adjust the test point pressure or supply pressure to the value which is appropriate
for the gas type.
3. The operation of the appliance must be tested when installation is completed.
4. Turn on the appliance gas controls and light each burner individually and in com-
bination. Check for a well defined blue flame without any yellow tipping. If any
abnormality is evident then check that the burner cap is located properly and the
injector nipple is aligned correctly.
5. Check the minimum burner setting by quickly rotating the gas control knob from
the maximum to the minimum position, the flame must not go out. If adjustment is
required carry out the “minimum burner setting adjustment" procedure described
6. If satisfacfory performance cannot be obtained, the installer shall check the installa-
tion and notify the local gas supply authority for a gas supply problem, or if it is an
appliance problem, our Customer Service Centre should be called to obtain the
nearest authorized Delonghi Service Agent.
WARNING, This appliance IS NOT SUITABLE for installation with a hose
assembly.

CONVERSION PROCEDURE (to convert to LPG Propane)
REPLACING THE INJECTORS
This appliance is suitable for use with Natural gas or Propane gas (check the “gas type”
sticker attached to the appliance). A label stating the type of gas used after replacing
the injectors must be attached at the rear of the appliance, in proximity of the gas
inlet connection. The nominal gas consumption and injector size details are provided
in table at page 13.
To replace the injectors proceed as follows:
■Remove pan supports and burners from the cooktop.
■Using a spanner, remove the injector J (figs. 8-9) and replace it with one
according to the gas type (see following tables - page 13).
■Affix to the rear of the appliance, in proximity of the gas inlet connections, the
warning label (supplied with the conversion kit) stating that the cooker has
been converted for use with Propane gas / Natural gas.
IMPORTANT
■If the cooker is suitable for use with Natural gas and must be converted for use
with Propane gas, before connecting to gas main remove the appliance gas
regulator and replace with test point adaptor (see figs. 4-5)
■If the cooker is suitable for use with Propane gas and must be converted for use
with Natural gas, before connecting to the gas main remove the appliance test
point adaptor and replace with gas regulator (see figs. 4-5).
NOTE:
Gas regulator and test point adaptor are supplied with the appliance (packed with
conversion kit)
The burners are designed so that regulation of primary air is not required.

MINIMUM BURNER SETTING ADJUSTMENT
Check whether the flame spreads to all burner ports when the burner is lit with the gas
tap set to the minimum position. If some ports do not light, increase the minimum gas
rate setting.
Check whether the burner remains lit even when the gas tap is turned quickly from
the maximum to the minimum position. If the burner does not remain lit, increase the
minimum gas rate setting.
The procedure for adjusting the minimum gas rate setting is described below.
■Turn on the burner
■Turn the tap to the MINIMUM position
■Take off the knob
■With a small flat screwdriver turn the screw (fig. 10) to the correct regulation.
Normally for Propane gas, the regulation screw is tightened up.

LUBRICATION OF THE GAS TAPS
If the gas tap becomes stiff, it is necessary to dismantle it carefully and clean it with petroleum
spirit. Specialist high temperature resistant grease should be used to lubricate the tap before
replacing.
The operations must be carried out by an authorised person/service agent.

USE and CARE
CAUTION:
■This appliance must be used only for the task it has explicitly been designed for,
that is for domestic cooking of foodstuffs. Any other form of usage is to be con-
sidered as inappropriate and therefore dangerous.
■Do NOT place combustible materials or products on this appliance at any time.
■Do NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance while it is in use.

USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
■Clean the inside of the oven with a cloth soaked in water and neutral detergent
and dry thoroughly.
■Slide in the wire racks on the oven wall as in Fig. 12.
■Slide in the grease filter on the back of the oven as in Fig. 14.
■Position the shelf and tray as per Fig. 13.
■To eliminate traces of grease in manufacture it is necessary to pre-heat the oven
at the maximum temperature.
• For 60 minutes in the position and for another 15 minutes in the posi-
tion.
GREASE FILTER
■A special screen is provided at the back of the oven to catch grease particles,
mainly when meat is being roasted (fig. 14).
■When baking pastry etc. this filter should be removed.
■Always clean the filter after cooking as any solid residues on it might adversely
affect the oven performance.

LIGHTING GAS BURNERS
FITTED WITH ELECTRONIC IGNITION
Figure 16
■Check that the electricity is
switched on to allow spark igni-
tion.
■Make sure that all controls are
turned to zero.
■The gas flow to the burner is
controlled by the taps. The
switch for the electric ignition is
incorporated in the knobs.
■The gas flow is controlled by
turning the knob indicator to line
up with the following symbols.
– Symbol ●: tap closed (burner off)
– Symbol : High (maximum)
– Symbol : Low (minimum)
■To ignite automatically, push the required knob down and turn it to maximum,
keeping the knob down until the burner lights
■You can control the temperature by the knob to “High” from “minimum”.
■To switch off, turn the knob clockwise until you hear the safety click.
■Note that, if you are using a burner at the minimum setting, you turn the knob
clockwise past the maximum setting before reaching the off position.
■Whenever the lighting of the burners is difficult due to peculiar conditions of
the gas features or supply, it is advised to repeat the ignition with the knob on
“minimum” position.
■If when lighting any of the burners an abnormal flame appears, switch the
burner off and relight using the minimum setting.
■If the flame is still not correct, turn the burner off and call our Customer Service
center for your nearest Authorized Delonghi Service Agent.
■In the case of a mains failure light the burner with a match or lighted taper.

18
CHOICE OF BURNER
Burners Pan diameter
Auxiliary 12 - 14 cm
Semi-rapid 16 - 24 cm
Triple ring 26 - 28 cm
Wok max 36 cm
The burner must be chosen according to the diameter of the pans and energy
required.
For optimum efficiency use a wok or pan no smaller than 230mm diameter.
Saucepans with handles which are excessively heavy, in relationship to the weight
of the pan, are safer as they are less likely to tip.
Pans which are positioned centrally on burners are more stable than those which
are offset.
It is far safer to position the pan handles in such a way that they cannot be
accidentally knocked.
When deep fat frying fill the pan only one third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave the pan where it is and turn off all
controls.
Place a damp cloth or correct fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames.
DO NOT use water on the fire.
Leave the pan to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Figure 17
do not use pans with concave or convex bases

19
CORRECT USE OF TRIPLE-RING BURNER
■The flat-bottomed pans are to be placed directly onto the pan-support.
■To use the WOK, you must place the wok stand in the CORRECT position as
shown in Fig. 18-19.
