Instructions for the installer
All installation, regulation and adaptation to
other types of gas must be carried out by an
authorised installation technician,
respecting all applicable regulations,
standards and the country's electrical and
gas supply companies' specifications.
It is recommended that you call our
Technical Assistance Service for adaptation
to other types of gas. Before you begin, turn
off the appliance's electricity and gas supply.
Before connecting the appliance to the supply,
check that it is prepared for the type of gas in
question (table I).
Our hobs leave the factory set for the
gas type indicated on the characteristics plate.
This appliance must be installed in a place
with the proper level of ventilation. The gases
produced during combustion must be released
to the outside.
Check the size of the hob and the size of the
opening to be made on the kitchen unit.
The panelling on the work surface in the
immediate vicinity of the hob must be made of
non-flammable material. Both stratified coatings
and the adhesive used to fix them in place must
be heat resistant. Otherwise, they may be
damaged.
Electric wiring must not come into contact with
hot areas
The mains supply cable must be fixed to the
kitchen unit to prevent it from coming into contact
with hot parts on the oven or hob.
Handle the appliance with care throughout
the entire installation process. Avoid knocking the
appliance.
Appliance with electrics components must be
earthed.
SHOULD THE RELEVANT CONDITIONS
NOT BE PROPERLY SATISFIED, THE
INSTALLER, AND NOT THE MANUFACTURER,
SHALL HELD LIABLE.
Installing the hob in the
kitchen unit
The positioning of a hob in a kitchen unit is
Class 3 according to the standard for gas
appliances EN 30-1-1.
Housing measurements
1- Minimum Distances (mm). Cut a hole of
the necessary size in the work surfac, Fig. 1.
-For installation on top of an oven, check the
size of the oven as given in its assembly manual.
If it is to be installed over an oven, you must
check that the oven is sufficiently well ventilated
and check the dimensions as given in the
installation manual.
If it were possible to acess the under part of
a hob with control module during use, it is
necessary to fit a separator to avoid possible
contact. The minimun distance between the
separator and the unit must be 130 mm.
Centre the hob in the hole on the work surface.
2- The wood fibres used in the manufacture
of kitchen work surfaces are liable to swell when
they come into contact with moisture. You are
recommended, therefore, to coat cut edges with
a special adhesive to protect them from steam or
condensed water which could deposit beneath
the work surface on the kitchen unit.
Depending on the model purchased, the
fixtures and the watertight seal (lower edge of the
hob) may come factory-fitted. If this is the case,
do not under any circumstances remove them.
The seal keeps the entire work surface watertight
and prevents leakage.
If these parts are not factory-fitted, remove the
pan supports and the gas burner covers and
diffusers from your cooking hob, and turn it
upside down. Fix the self-adhesive seal
supplied with the appliance to the lower edge of
the hob, Fig. 2, remove the fixtures from the
accessory bag and put them in position in the
holes on the side of the hob, Fig.2a or 2b.
3- Press down all the edges at the same time
to make sure that the hob is resting on its
perimeter, Fig. 3.
Should it be necessary to dismount the hob, you
must only press upwards from underneath.
Fig. 2a.
If your clip is type Fig. 2b, you should use a
screwdriver to lever it upwards. Fig. 2c.
4- The end of the input collector on gas hobs
comes with a 1 2
/ "
(20,955 mm)
threaded L-tube,
Fig. 4. This caters for:
•Rigid connection.
•Connection to a flexible metal tube: If this
method is used, avoid both contact between this
tube and moving parts on the housing (e.g.
drawers) and passing the tube through spaces
liable to get blocked.
In either of the cases, do not move or twist the L-
tube from its factory-set position.
To use this appliance in France, it is necessary
to remove the L-tube mounted in the factory and
assemble the one supplied in the accessory bag.
(Fig. 4a). Do not forget to insert the seal.
If, for some reason, the L-tube should be twisted,
it is necessary to make sure that this area is
properly sealed. Make sure that all connections
performed are free of leakage.
The manufacturer does not accept any
liability for leakage on connections performed
by the installer or if the L-tube is moved or
twisted.
5- Check the voltage and total power on the
characteristics plate. The appliance must be
EARTHED.
Make sure that connection has been
performed in accordance with legal regulations
in force for the country in question. Comply fully
with the conditions laid down by the local electricity
company.
In order to meet normal safety standards, the
installer must supply an all-pole circuit breaker
with a contact aperture of at least 3 mm. This is
not necessary when connection is made via a
socket, so long as this is accessible to the user.
Appliances equipped with plugs should only
be connected to sockets which are duly earthed.
The appliance is type "Y". This means that
the input supply cable cannot be changed by
the user. Only the brand's service technicians
are qualified to replace this cable. Use the right
cable type and section.
Do not tamper inside the appliance. If
necessary, call our Service Centre.
Hobs with control knobs are supplied with a
plugged or unplugged power cable.
TYPES OF CABLE
Hob:
Power cable:
All gas
3 x 0.5
3 x 0.75 mm 2
electric plate 1 Kw

Assembly of hob without
safety device onto oven or
control panel.
6- The hob and oven/control module must be
made by the same manufacturer (see combination
table in instructions of use) and use the same
supply voltage (see characteristics plate).
Once the hob has been fixed into place and
checked to be secure and properly sealed, make
sure that both the actuator cardans for the valves
and the switch box, in the case of a mixed
appliance, face out of the kitchen unit, Fig. 5.
7- Insert the actuator in the inner side of the
oven/control module lining the pins on the actuator
up ( A ) Fig.6. with the slits ( B ) on the module or
control panel (there is only one possible position).
Press the actuator so that fixture pins (A)
secure it in position, as shown Fig. 6.
If, for some reason, one of the pins should
break, the actuator can be fixed into position by
inserting M 3.5 X DIN 7985 screws in holes (D),
threading them into the actuator itself.
8- If your appliance is equipped with ignition,
entire
connect to the oven as shown in Fig. 7. connecting
the earth wire first, using the nut from the oven,
and then connecting the oven power supply.
9- Draw the oven to the telescopic actuators
already fitted onto the gas valves and house the
crosshead in slit E, Fig.8 , by pulling on the end.
Insert the control knobs with printed gas flames
onto the actuator shafts which appear in the control
panel, Fig. 9.
10- Once everything has been connected,
set the oven into its housing, Fig. 10. according
to the instructions given in its installation manual.
11- In order to complete the installation process,
you must place the diffusers and the tops of the
burners on their corresponding burners. Also you
must place the metal grids correctly on their
supporting elements. Fig. 5a.
12- If you have to dismount the appliance, for
safety reasons, the last wire to be disconnected
should be the earth wire in the oven which comes
from the hob.
Changing the type of gas
All installation, regulation and adaptation to
other types of gas must be carried out by an
authorised installation technician,
respecting all applicable regulations,
standards and the country's electrical and
gas supply companies' specifications.
It is recommended that you call our
Technical Assistance Service for adaptation
to other types of gas. Before you begin, turn
off the appliance's electricity and gas supply.
Depending on the regulations in force in your
country, this hob may be adapted to work with
other types of gas (see characteristics plate). To
adapt the gas type, proceed as follows:
A) Changing the injectors on the burners
(table II).
1- Remove the grates, covers and burnercore.
2- Change the injectors using a 7-mm socket
wrench and be sure to tighten them down properly
so that they are fully air-tight, Fig. 11.
It is not necessary to adjust the primary air on
these burners.
B) Adjusting reduced consumption on the
burner valves.
1- Set the valves to minimum.
2- Remove the oven or control module,
Fig. 12.
3- Extract the three-part cardan from its position
on the valve shaft.
4- If in addition to an ignition system, the hob
mm 2
is also equipped with safety devices, then the flow
adjustment screw is always visible.
mm 2
5- Adjust the flow adjustment screw,
Fig. 13.
•For Propane and Butane Gas: the screw
must be tightened down fully.
•For Natural Gas: turn the screw in an anti-
clockwise direction until the correct release of gas
is reached: when the burner is changed from the
maximum to minimum settings, the flame does
not go out or backfire.
6- Put the label which indicates the type of
gas the appliance has been adapted to near the
characteristics plate.
7- Re-assemble the components when
finished.
Never dismount the valve shaft: in the event
of damage, change the entire valve.
