LIGHTING THE BURNERS
To obtain a flame more easily, light the burner before placing a cooking
utensil on the pan stand
To light a burner, proceed as follow: for Version with lighting integrated
in the control knob push the knob of the burner fully down and turn it
anticlockwise to the “maximum flow” setting symbol, or press the
button if the appliance has individual lighting.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pressed for about 10 seconds: this time
is necessary to heat up the “thermocouple” (Fig.1-C) and activate the safety
valve, which would otherwise cut off the gas flow.
Then check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to adjust the
flame as required
In the instance of a power cut, place a flame near the burner and proceed as
already described.
If the flame does not light after a few attempts, check that the “burner cap” and
“flame cap” are correctly positioned.
To turn off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the ● symbol.
Before removing pans from the burners, always lower or turn off the flame.
For correct use of the hob
For lower gas consumption and better efficiency: Use only flat-bottomed pans
of
dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in the table on the right. Also, as
soon as a liquid comes to the boil take care to turn the flame down to a level
that will just keep it boiling.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE INSTALLATION TECHNICIAN
CAUTION: This appliance must only be installed and used in rooms
with permanent ventilation to local standards.
Installation of the appliance and its connection to the electrical mains
must only be carried out by qualified technician.
Before any procedure, it is important to check that the appliance is
DISCONNECTED from the electrical mains. The Manufacturer

INSTALLATION PREMISES
For proper operation of a gas appliance, the air necessary for the combustion
of the gas must be able to flow into the room naturally. The air must flow into
the room directly through openings in the outside walls. These openings must
have an unobstructed cross-section not less than 2m3/hfor each kw of power
(see total power in kw on the appliance nameplate).
This opening must be constructed so that it will not be
obstructed from inside or outside, or constructed close
to the floor. The opening is recommended to be on the
side opposite to that on which the flue gases are
discharged. If it is not feasible to provide these
openings in the room where the appliance is installed,
the necessary air may be taken from an adjacent
room, provided that:
·this room is not a bedroom or a hazardous
environment;
·this room has ventilation;
·the ventilation between the room where the appliance
is installed and the adjacent room has openings.
Discharge of flue gases
Gas cooking appliances must discharge their flue
gases through hoods connected directly to flues or the
outdoors. If it is not possible to install the hood (fig. B)
an electric fan must be installed on the outside wall or
the window of the room, provided it is possible for the
ventilation opening
to be increased in proportion to the delivery rate of the fan (fig. C). For a
kitchen, the delivery rate of this electric fan must guarantee an hourly air
exchange of 3-5 times its volume. In both instances, the use of flues already
used by other appliances to discharge the flue gases is forbidden.
9

CONNECTION TO THE GAS SUPPLY
The gas Connection must be made in accordance with
the local standards. When installing,fit a safety tap at
the end of the pipeline. The appliance leaves the
factory tested and set for the type of gas indicated on
the plate inside the bottom guard, close to the gas
connection pipe. Make sure that the type of gas to be
supplied to the appliance is the same as that shown
on the plate. Otherwise, follow the instructions
provided in the “Adapting to different types of gas”
section.
For maximum efficiency and minimum consumption,
make sure that the gas supply pressure complies with
the values shown in the gas used is different from that
specified (or variable).a suitable pressure regulator
must be installed on the supply pipeline.
The union must be fitted on the end of the gas train. Complete with GJ1/2＂
threaded nut, fitting the gasket between the components as shown in the
illustration. The gaskets must comply with the local standards. Screw the parts
together without forcing, fit the union so that it points in the direction required
then tighten all parts.
CONNECTION
Make the connection to the gas system using a rigid metal pipe and regulation
unions, or with a stainless steel hose complying with the local standard. If
metal hoses are used, take care that they do not come into contact with mobile
parts and are not crushed. This must also be checked if the hob is to be
combined with an oven.
The gas intake connection of the appliance has a “ male thread.”
When making the connection, take care not to apply stresses of any kind to
the appliance.
When the installation is complete, always check that all the unions are
absolutely tight using a soapy solution. Never use a flame to make
this check.
10

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The appliance is profited to operate with a
power supply voltage of 230Vsingle-phase. The
connection must be made in accordance with
the regulations and laws in force.
Before making the connection, make sure that:
1) the safety circuit-breaker and the electrical
system are able to withstand the load of the
appliance(see nameplate).
2) The power supply system has an earth
connection in good working order in
accordance with the regulations in force;
3) The socket or omni polar switch use are
easily accessible with the appliance
installed.
Fit a plug suitable for the load on the power lead
and connect it to a suitable safety socket.
If you wish to make a direct connection to the mains, an omni polar switch with
a gap between the contacts of at least 3 mm, of suitable rating for the load and
complying with the regulations in force, must be installed between the
appliance and the mains. The switch must not break a contact in the
yellow/green earth wire.
The brown live wire (connected to the “L” terminal of the terminal board) must
always be connected to the live wire of the power supply mains.
In all cases, the power supply lead must be positioned so that it does not
reach a temperature 50oC above the room temperature at any point.
One example of an ideal route is shown in the illustration. The cable is guided
by means of band clamps fixed to the side of the cabinet, in order to avoid any
contact with the appliance underneath the hob.
REPLACING THE POWER SUPPLY LEAD
If the lead has to be replaced, only HO5RR-F or
HO5RN-F type cables suitable for the load and the
operating temperature must be used. In addition, the
yellow/green earth wire must be about 2 cm longer
than the live and neutral wires.
11

ADAPTING TO THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS
Changing the nozzles
1) Remove the pan standee.
2) Remove the burner caps and flame caps from the
burners.
3) Use a size 7 socket wrench to unscrew and remove
the nozzles, replacing them with those corresponding
to the type of gas to be used (see the table ).
4) Reassemble the parts, reversing the operations
described above.
5) Then replace the setting data (close to the mains gas connection)with the
one for the new type of gas If the pressure of the gas used is different from
that specified(or variable),a suitable piped gas pressure regulator
complying with the standard must be installed on the supply pipeline.
Setting the minimum level
1) Light the burner as already described.
2) Turn the tap to the minimum flame position.
3) Remove the control knobs.
4) Use a thin straight screwdriver to turn the by-pass pin
located next to the tap rod (see fig. B).For LPG, turn the
by-pass pin fully clockwise.
The result should be a small, homogeneous flame
which is uniform around the entire burner ring. For the dual Triple A
Flame version see fig. A. by-pass 1 central burner,
by-pass 2 both burners.
5) Finally, check that the burner does not go out when the
tap is turned quickly from the maximum to the minimum
position.

BUILDING INTO FITTED KITCHEN UNITS
These hobs are designed for installation in fitted kitchen units up to 600mm
deep with suitable characteristics.
Any cabinet side panels taller than the height of the hob itself must be at least
150mm away from the opening into which the hob is inserted.
The dimensions of the hob and the installation opening are shown in the
illustration.
INSERTION AND FIXING
Before inserting the hob in the installation opening,
place the special gasket around the bottom edge
of the hob.
It is important to fix this gasket evenly, without
gaps or overlapping, to prevent liquid from seeping
underneath the hob.
1) Remove the pan stands and the burner caps
and turn the hob upside down, taking care not
to damage the ignition plugs and the
thermocouples.
2) Place the gasket around the bottom edge of
the hob as shown in the illustration on the
right.
3) Place the hob in the installation opening and
push it down so that the hob is resting firmly on
the cabinet, as show in the illustration. The
side springs will hold it in place.
13

INSTALLATION OPTIONS
On base cabinet with door
When constructing the cabinet, suitable precautions must
be taken to prevent contact with the casing of the hob,
which becomes very hot during operation. The
recommended method for overcoming this problem is
illustrated in fig.1
The panel underneath the hob must be easily removable to
allow the hob to be locked in position and released in case of servicing work
On base cabinet with oven
The installation
compartment must have the
dimensions shown in figures
2 and 3 and must have
supports to allow
satisfactory ventilation. Two
possible methods for
avoiding overheating are
illustrated in figures 3 and 4.
The electrical connections of
the hob and oven must be
made separately both for
electrical reasons and to
simplify removal of the oven
through the front of the
cabinet.
Wall cabinets or extractor
hoods must be at least 650
mm above the hob.
