VENTILATION
The rooms in which gas appliances are in-
stalled must be well ventilated in order to al-
low correct gas combustion and ventilation.
Ventilation must be in accordance with AS
5601 - Gas installations. In general, the ap-
pliance should have adequate ventilation for
complete combustion of gas, proper fl ueing
and to maintain temperature of immediate
surroundings within safe limits.
POSITIONING (fi g. 3)
Free the hob from the packaging accesso-
ries, including the fi lms covering the chrome
plated or stainless steel parts. Any adjoining
wall surface situated within 200mm from the
edge of any hob burner must be a suitable
non-combustible material for a height of
150mm for the entire lenght of the hob. Any
combustible construction above the hotplate
must be at least 600mm above the top of the
burner and no constructionshall be within
450mm above the top of the burner. Any
combustible partition parallel to and below
the hotplate must be at least 25mm below the
base of the hotplate, and a square opening
with sides of 10 cm must be made under the
gas hose elbow. You are advised to make
the gas connection before fi tting the hob into
the supporting unit.
FIXING
A self-adhesive seal (A) is supplied with the
hob. This must be placed under the edge of
the box unit, as close as possible to the edge
itself (fi g. 4). The seal must run all round the
unit to ensure a perfect seal and prevent
moisture from seeping under the hob.
The hooks are secured directly to the box
unit using the screws.
There are 25mm spacers supplied with
the hotplate, which must always be fi xed
to the hotplate base panel to ensure a
25mm gap is maintained to combustible
materials.
Each spacer is composed of
two pieces of 12.5 mm each and they must
be fi tted one on top of the other. The spa-
cers must be then directly screwed into
the three holes pierced (D) in the hotplate
base. (please see fi gure 12)
Place the hob in the hole in the work top,
making sure that the adhesive ensures a
good seal between the edge of the hob and
the surface of the supporting unit (fi g. 5)
and conclude fi xing by tightening the screws
which secure the hooks (C) into their seats
(fi g. 6).In installations where it is possible
to touch the base of the hotplate, a barrier
shelf has to be installed to prevent accidental
contact with the potentially hot base of the
hotplate. If the barrier shelf is made from
c
ombustible materials, it must be fi tted at
least 25mm below the base of the hotplate.
The 25mm spacers supplied must be fi tted
to the base panel of the hotplate to ensure
a 25mm gap between the hotplate base and
the barrier panel.
CONNECTING TO THE GAS SUPPLY
Before connecting the hob, 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 Gas Connection is male 1/2
BSP and is situated at the right-hand side
of the appliance, 42mm from the rear and
30mm from the RHS of the cooktop. This
appliance is suitable for connection with a
rigid pipe only.
The rigid connection (fi g. 7)
is compulsory for operation with both natural
and LPG.
IMPORTANT:
- After installation, check that all connec-
tions are airtight.
ADAPTING TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF
GAS
If the hob 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 p. 3);
- regulate the minimum settings.
N.B
.: every time you change the type of gas,
indicate the new type of gas on the serial
Installation
AU

number label.
REPLACING INJECTORS (fi g. 8)
The hob is preset with natural gas. The ap-
pliance is preset with the injectors necessary
for adaptation to bottled gas ( propane).
If the hob has to be changed from natural
gas, proceed as follows:
- 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 3, tighten and screw right
down;
- remove the Natural Gas regulator and
replace with the test point assembly.
- check that the system is gas-tight ;
- replace the burners, the burner caps and
the grid.
With triple fl ame burners (fi g. 8b):
- carry out the operations already described
and also
- unscrew the two screws which secure the
guard plate (D) and replace the side injector
as indicated in the table on page 18, screw
in and tighten fully.
IMPORTANT:
- Never over-tighten the injectors;
- after replacing, check that all the injectors
are airtight.
SETTING HOB BURNER MINIMUM LE-
VELS
If the hob is to work on bottled gas (butane/
propane), the tap by-pass must be screwed
right down. The hob 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 fi gure 9.
If the cooker is to work on natural gas, pro-
ceed as follows for both types of tap:
- Ignite the burner at maximum fl ame;
- 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
fl ame;
- screw the by-pass slowly back in, without
pushing the screw-driver, until the fl ame
has apparently shrunk to 1/4 of the ma-
ximum size, checking that it is suffi ciently
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 socket is not easily accessible, the in-
stallation engineer must provide a switch with
a contact breaking gap of 3 mm or more.
If the appliance power lead is not fi tted with
a plug, use an approved standard type, re-
membering that:
- the green-yellow wire must be used for the
earth connection;
- the blue wire is the neutral;
- the brown wire is live;
- the lead must never touch hot surfaces over
about 75 degrees C;
- in case of replacement, the power lead
must be of type H05RR-F or H05V2V2-F
of adequate gauge (see fi g.2) for gas and
all-electric appliances, and type FR 3 R3 of
adequate gauge (see fi g.2) for gas-electric
appliances;
- the power supply lead must only be repla-
ced by a qualifi ed person.
IMPORTANT
:
the manufacturer declines all liability for
damage due to failure to comply with the
regulations and standards in force. Check
that the appliance is correctly connected to
the earth (see diagrams in fi g. 2 at the back
of the manual).

FOR HOBS WITH ELECTRIC IGNITION
The correct gap between the electrode and
the burner is shown in fi gure 10.
If no spark is generated, do not keep on trying
as this might damage the generator.
Possible causes of malfunctions:
- spark plug damp, dirty or broken;
- electrode-burner gap not correct;
- spark plug wire broken or without shea-
thing;
- spark discharging to earth (to other parts
of the hob);
- generator or microswitch damaged;
- air has built up in the pipes (particularly
if the hob has been out of use for a long
time);
- air-gas mixture incorrect (poor fuel set-
ting).
THE SAFETY DEVICE
The correct gap between the end of the ther-
mocouple sensor and the burner is shown
in fi gure 10.
To check that the valve is working properly,
proceed as follows:
- ignite the burner and leave it to work for
about 3 minutes;
- turn off the burner by returning the knob to
off position (
);
- after 90 seconds turn the knob pointer to
the “open” position;
- release the knob in this position and move
a burning match towards the burner; IT
MUST NOT IGNITE.
Time needed to excite the magnet during
ignition: 10 seconds approx.
Automatic tripping time, after fl ame has been
turned off: not more than 90 seconds.
IMPORTANT:
- The electrical plug must be disconnected
and the gas tap turned off before any tech-
nical work inside the appliance.
- Never use matches to check the gas circuit
for leaks. If a specifi c control device is not
available, foam or very soapy water can be
used.
- When re-closing the hob, check that the
electrical wires of the spark plugs (if pre-
sent) are not close to the injectors, so that
they cannot run across them.
Before Leaving
Check all connections for gas leaks with
soap and water. DO NOT use a naked
fl ame for detecting leaks. Ignite all burners
to ensure correct operation of gas valves,
burners and ignition. Turn gas taps to low
fl ame position and observe stability of the
fl ame. Whern satisfi ed with the hotplate,
please instruct the user on the correct
method of operation. In case the appliance
fails to operate correctly after all checks
have been carried out, refer to the authori-
sed service provider in your area.

AU
HOW TO USE THE HOB
VENTILATION
All gas cooking appliances produce heat and
moisture in the rooms where they are installed.
Take care to ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated; keep the ventilation openings unob-
structed or install an extractor hood with fan.
In case of intensive or prolonged use, additional
ventilation may be required; open a window, or
increase the extractor fan power.
IGNITING THE HOB BURNERS
- Press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise until
it reaches the
symbol on the control panel
symbol on the control panel
(maximum fl ame position);
- at the same time, move a burning match
towards the burner head;
- to reduce the fl ame, turn the knob further in
the same direction until its pointer is against

symbol (minimum fl ame position).
FOR HOB BURNERS EQUIPPED WITH
SAFETY DEVICE
- Press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise until
it reaches the
symbol on the control panel
symbol on the control panel
(maximum fl ame position);
- move a burning match towards the burner,
keeping the knob pressed right dow for about
10 seconds;
- then release the knob and check that the
burner remains on. Otherwise, repeat the
operation.
SAFETY DEVICE
Burners equipped with this device have the
advantage that they are protected if they ac-
cidentally go out. If this occurs, the supply of
gas to the burner concerned is automatically
cut off, preventing the hazards deriving from a
leak of unburnt gas: no more than 90 seconds
must pass after the fl ame has gone out.
FOR HOBS WITH ELECTRIC IGNITION
All the above applies, except that the match
is no longer required; a spark is obtained by
pressing the button on the control panel once
or more, or by pressing the knob of the burner
to be ignited.
Ignition will be even easier if there is a pan on
the burner.
If electronic ignition is diffi cult with some types
of gas, set the knob on the low (small fl ame)
setting.
IMPORTANT:
- Diffi culty in igniting burners is normal if the
hob has been out of use for some time. The
air accumulated in the pipes will be expelled
in a few seconds;
- Never allow too much unburnt gas to fl ow
from the burners. If ignition is not achieved
within a relatively short time, repeat the
procedure after returning the knob to the off
position (
);
HOW TO USE THE HOB BURNERS
Use pans of diameter suitable for the burner
type. The fl ames must not project beyond the
base of the pan. Recommended sizes:
- for auxiliary burners = pans of at least 8 cm
- for semi-rapid burners = pans of at least 14
cm
- for rapid burners = pans of at least 22 cm.
N.B.
: Never keep the knob at settings between
the maximum fl ame symbol
: Never keep the knob at settings between
and the off
and the off
position (
).
FOR HOBS EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRIC
HOTPLATES
The different heat settings are obtained as
follows:
- 1 = minimum setting for all hotplates;
- 6 = maximum setting for normal and rapid
hotplates (with red disc);
- 0 = off.
Pans must never be smaller in diameter than
the hotplates and their bottoms must be as fl at
as possible (see fi g. 11).
IMPORTANT:
- Never leave hotplates on without pans,
except when fi rst used; leave for about 10
minutes to dry oil or moisture residues;

8
For the user
AU
- if the hotplate is to be out of use for a long
time, apply a little grease to its painted sur-
face;
- do not allow spills to burn onto the hotplate,
requiring the use of abrasive cleaners.
F
or economical cooking:
- Use pans with fl at bottoms which are in con-
tact with the hotplate in all points:
• in stainless steel with thick or sandwich
bottom;
• in aluminium with thick, fl at bottom;
• in enamelled steel;
- make sure that pans are of appropriate size;
the pan bottom diameter must be equal to or
larger than that of the hotplate used;
- switch the hotplate off a few minutes before
the dish is completely cooked;
- use a lid whenever possible to prevent losses
by evaporation;
- never supply more power than the
f
ood is
able to absorb; excess heat leads to losses
of water and fats and wasted energy;
- never use more water than necessary.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Warning: Servicing should be carried out only
authorised personnel.
- The power supply must always be discon-
nected before any technical work.
- Enamelled or chrome plated parts must be
washed with lukewarm soapy water or non
abrasive detergents. A metal brush may be
used to remove hard deposits from burners
and fl ame caps. Dry thoroughly.
- Never use abrasives to clean enamelled or
chrome-plated parts.
- Do not use too much water when washing
the hob. Take care that no water or other
substances enter the burner housing holes,
as this may be dangerous.
- The spark plugs for electric ignition must
be kept clean and dry; always check after
use, particularly if there have been drips or
overfl ows from pans.
- Never knock enamelled parts or ignition
spark plugs (where present).
- When the hob is not in use, the central (or
wall) gas tap should be turned off.
ABNORMAL OPERATION
Any of the following are considered to
be abnormal operating and may require
service:
- Yellow tipping of the hob burner fl ame.
- Sooting up of cooking utensils.
- Burners not igniting properly.
- Burners failing to remain alight.
- Burners extinguished by cupboard doors.
- Gas valves, which are diffi cult to turn.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility
for injury or damage deriving from poor in-
stallation or incorrect use of the hob.
In case of malfunctions, particularly gas
leaks or short-circuits, service or spare
parts, refer to your warranty card for
contact details.
