When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure
regulator which complies with current national regulations.
3. Reassemble the parts following the above procedure in
the reverse order.
GB
4. Once this procedure is finished, replace the old rating
sticker with one indicating the new type of gas used.
Sticker are available from any of our Service Centres.
! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent
with the values indicated in Table 1 (“Burner and nozzle
specifications”). This will ensure the safe operation and
longevity of your appliance while maintaining efficient
energy consumption.
• Adjusting the burners’ primary air :
Does not require adjusting.
• Setting the burners to minimum:
Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)
1. Turn the tap to the low flame position.
! Connection to the gas system must be carried out in
such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on the
appliance.
2. Remove the knob and adjust the adjustment screw,
which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the
flame is small but steady.
There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting on the
appliance supply ramp and this is fitted with a seal in
order to prevent leaks. The seal must always be replaced
after rotating the pipe fitting (seal provided with
appliance). The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2
gas cylindrical male attachment.
3. Having adjusted the flame to the required low setting,
while the burner is alight, quickly change the position of
the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa
several times, checking that the flame does not go out.
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a
threaded attachment
The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas
cylindrical male attachment.
These pipes must be installed so that they are never
longer than 2000 mm when fully extended. Once
connection has been carried out, make sure that the
flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts and
is not compressed.
4. Some appliances have a safety device (thermocouple)
fitted. If the device fails to work when the burners are
set to the low flame setting, increase this low flame
setting using the adjusting screw.
! Only use pipes and seals that comply with current
national regulations.
5. Once the adjustment has been made, replace the seals
on the by-passes using sealing wax or a similar
substance.
Checking the tightness of the connection
! When the installation process is complete, check the
pipe fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a
flame.
! If the appliance is connected to liquid gas, the regulation
screw must be fastened as tightly as possible.
Adapting to different types of gas
! Once this procedure is finished, replace the old rating
sticker with one indicating the new type of gas used.
Stickers are available from any of our Service Centres.
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other than
default type (indicated on the rating plate at the base of
the hob or on the packaging), the burner nozzles should
be replaced as follows:
! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet pipe (in order
to comply with current national regulations).
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their
seats.
2. Unscrew the nozzles using a
7 mm socket spanner, and
replace them with nozzles for the
new type of gas (see table 1
“Burner and nozzle
characteristics”). In the case of
the Mini WOK burner, use a
spanner with a 7 mm opening
to unscrew the nozzle (see figure).
