3.2 Gas Connection
WARNING!
The following instructions
about installation,
connection and maintenance
must be carried out by
qualified personnel in
compliance with standards
and local regulations in
force.
Choose fixed connections or use a
flexible pipe in stainless steel in
compliance with the regulation in force. If
you use flexible metallic pipes, be careful
they do not come in touch with mobile
parts or they are not squeezed. Also be
careful when the hob is put together with
an oven.
Make sure that the gas
supply pressure of the
appliance obeys the
recommended values. The
adjustable connection is
fixed to the comprehensive
ramp by means of a
threaded nut G 1/2". Screw
the parts and tighten
everything with teflon tape, if
necessary, to get the right
direction.

Liquid gas
Use the rubber pipe holder for liquid gas.
Always engage the gasket. Then
continue with the gas connection.
The flexible pipe is prepared for apply
when:
• it can not get hot more than room
temperature, higher than 30°C;
• it is no longer than 1500 mm;
• it shows no throttles;
• it is not subject to traction or torsion;
• it does not get in touch with cutting
edges or corners;
• it can be easily examined in order to
make sure its condition.
The control of preservation of the flexible
pipe consists in checking that:
• it does not show cracks, cuts, marks
of burnings on the two ends and on its
full length;
• the material is not hardened, but
shows its correct elasticity;
• the fastening clamps are not rusted;
• expired term is not due.
If one or more defects are visible, do not
repair the pipe, but replace it.
WARNING!
When installation is
complete, make sure that
the seal of each pipe fitting
is correct. Use a soapy
solution, not a flame!

4. Assemble the parts, follow the same
procedure backwards.
5. Replace the rating plate (it is near the
gas supply pipe) with the one for the
new type of gas supply. You can find
this plate in the package supplied

minimum 1 minute.
CAUTION!
In the absence of electricity
you can ignite the burner
without electrical device; in
this case approach the
burner with a flame, turn the
control knob counter-
clockwise to maximum gas
supply position and push it
down. Keep the control knob
pushed for equal or less
than 10 seconds to let the

If the burner accidentally
goes out, turn the control
knob to the off position and
try to light the burner again
after minimum 1 minute.
The spark generator can
start automatically when you
switch on the mains, after
installation or a power cut. It
is normal.
The hob is supplied with the
progressive valves. They
make the flame regulation
more precise.
5.3 Turning the burner off

of pots do not stand above
the control knob, otherwise
the flame heats the control
knob up.
CAUTION!
Make sure that pot handles
are not above the front edge
of the cooktop.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the pots are
placed centrally on the
burner in order to get
maximum stability and to get
lower gas consumption.
CAUTION!
Liquids spilt during cooking
can cause the glass to
break.
6.2 Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• When the liquid starts to boil, turn
down the flame to barely simmer the
liquid.
6.3 Diameters of cookware

the surface of the hob.
ENGLISH 13

WARNING!
Do not use knives, scrapers
or similar instruments to
clean the surface of the
glass or between the rims of
the burners and the frame (if
applicable).
• Wash stainless steel parts with water,
and then dry them with a soft cloth.
7.2 Pan supports
