CONNECTING THE COOKTOP TO THE GAS SUPPLY
The gas connection tting (g. 2.1) is made up of:
• the oating nut;
• the elbow;
• the gaskets;
• the conical pipe tting - to be used for the United Kingdom only or if requested by the
applicable local regulations. In this case, before connecting the appliance to the gas
supply, t the conical pipe tting to the elbow interposing the gasket. If the conical pipe
tting is not supplied with the appliance it can be purchased by contacting the After-
Sales Service.
The gas connection must be carried out by an authorised person according to the
relevant local standards.
• If using a exible hose, make sure it does not come into contact with moving parts.
• The rear of the chassis is recessed to provide a channel for the appliance inlet pipe.
• The gas connection tting can be turned in the direction required (but never in a vertical
or horizontal position) after loosening the elbow and oating nut connection.
• Never attempt to turn the elbow without having rst loosened the oating nut.
• The supplied gaskets guarantee a good seal for the gas connection. We recommend
that you replace the gaskets on the slightest sign of wear, deformation or imperfection.
• After connecting to the gas mains, check that the couplings are correctly sealed, using
soapy solution, but never a naked ame.
