Positioning; Connection To The Gas Supply - Franke FHM 704 4G Instrucciones Para El Uso E Instalacion

Positioning

Detailed below are all the procedures to be followed for the installation of your appliance,
including gas and electrical connections. These procedures must be carried out exclusively
by a qualified technician, in accordance with current regulations, since installation by an
unqualified person may constitute a health hazard.
The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals or damage
to property resulting from failure to comply with these regulations. The gas
connection must conform to the current legislation in the country at the time of
installation.
Preparing the worktop
This handbook refers to a class 3 built-in hob.
Prepare the cut-out in the worktop as per the measurements shown in fig. 1.
It is vital, in any case, to select the most convenient position for the cut-out, taking into
consideration the fact that the gas pipe must not touch the sides of any cooking appliance
below the hob.
Positioning the hob in the worktop
After carrying out the necessary connections, position the sealing strip all around the cut-
out and lower the hob into position. Proceed to carefully tighten the fixing hooks. Remove
any excess sealing strip.
Important
This is a Type "Y" appliance in terms of protection against the risk of fire, which means it
can be installed near wooden walls or units higher than the installation worktop, as long as
the following minimum distances from the edge of the hob are observed: 50 mm. to side
walls, 30 mm to the rear wall and 700 mm to any wall units above the hob.

Connection to the gas supply

Check that the appliance is suited to the gas type
before connecting it to the gas supply in
conformance with current legislation.
If this is not the case, carry out the operations
described in the paragraph on "replacing injectors"
(page 18). For a liquid gas supply use pressure
regulators which comply with current legislation.
Connection to the gas supply may be made in two
ways:
A Connect the gas hob using a 12 mm diameter rigid copper pipe, as shown in fig. 2. To
prevent any risk of leaks, use the rubber gasket supplied.
