The installation system must incorporate an all-pin isolating switch with a contact opening of at least 3 mm, or the appliance should be connected to the mains via a safety plug. The plug must remain accessible after installation is complête. Do not kink or trap the mains connection cable. The appliance must be fitted according to the installation drawing. A minimum clearance of 260 mm from the periphery of the burner to a rear or side horizontal combustible surface must be maintained. If clearance is less than 260 mm then that surface must be non-combustible or be protected in accordance with AS/ NZS 5601.1 clause 6.10.1.2
Overhead clearances
Rangehoods and exhaust fans shall be installed in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between
the highest part of the burner and the underside of the rangehood be less than
650 mm. This appliance is not intended for operation with an external timer or
an éxternal remote control. THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT TO BE INSTALLED IN MARINE
CRAFT OR CARAVANS. THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE IN MARINE CRAFT OR
MOBILE HOMES.
Preparing the units (Fig. 1)
The fitted unit must be heat-resistant up to 90 °C. The fitted unit must still be sturdy after the cut-outs have been made. Make the cut-out in the worktop as shown in the installation drawing. The angle between the cut surface and the worktop must be 90°. The cut-out edges at the sides must be at least 20 mm thick and flat to ensure that the retaining springs sit correctly on th appliance. For laminate worktops, it may be necessary to secure strips at the sides in the cut-out. After making the cut-outs, remove any shavings. Seal cut surfaces with heat-resistant and waterproof material. Observe the minimum clearance of 10 mm between the bottom of the appliance and unit parts. Use suitable supporting structural measures beneath the worktop, especially if the worktop is not very thick, to ensure that it is both robust and capable of bearing the required load. Take into account the weight of the appliance and any additional loads. The reinforcing material used must be heat- and moisture-resistant. To improve flame stability, we recommend installing an intermediate floor underneath the appliance in the installation cabinet.
Fitting the appliance
Insert the appliance evenly into the cut-out. Push it down firmly into the
cut-out.
Note: The appliance must sit securely in the cut-out and must not be able
to move around (e.g. during cleaning). If the width of the cut-out is at the
upper tolerance limit, secure batten to the sides of the cut-out if necessary
Removing the appliance
Disconnect the appliance from the power and the gas supply. Push out the
appliance from below.
Caution! Risk of damage! Do not lever out the appliance from above.
Gas connection
The supply connection point shall be accessible with the appliance installed. Using the R%” (for appliance side) connection elbow provided, connect the appliance with the associated gasket to a fixed connection pipe. For natural gas the regulator must be connected.
If using a flexible connection
This appliance is approved for connection by a CLASS B hose. Connection is in
compliance with AS/NZS 5601.1
There are two ways to carry out the connection to the main gas line:
- A: The hotplate can be connected with rigid pipe.
- B: Flexible Hose: If installing with a hose assembly, install with a hose assembly that complies with AS/NZS 1869, 10 mm ID, class Bor D, no more than 1.2 m long and in accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1. Ensure that the hose does not contact the hot surfaces of the hotplate, oven, dishwasher or any other appliance that may be installed underneath or next to the hotplate. The hose should not be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be inspected along its entire length with the cooktop in the installed position. Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used and all connections tested for gas leaks.
Before leaving- check all connections for gas leaks with soap and water. DO NOT use a naked lame for detecting leaks. Ignite all burners both individually and concurrently to ensure correct operation of gas valves, burners and ignition. Turn gas taps to low position and observe stability of the flame for each burner individually and all together. Adhere the duplicate data plate to an accessible location near to the cook top. When satistied with the cook top, 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 authorised service provider in your area.
Electrical connection
Check that the appliance has the same voltage and frequency as the electrical installation system. The hob is delivered with a mains cable and 3 pin moulded plug. Only connect the appliance to sockets which have been fitted and earthed according to regulations. The appliance corresponds to type Y: the mains connection cable must only be replaced by the after-sales service. Check the cable type and minimum cross section.
Technical data
- Total connected load VG295250AU: 61.2 MJ/h (17 kW)
- Electric 10.0 W
Changing the gas type
The appliance must only be converted to a different type of gas by a licensed expert. Switch off the power supply and shut off the gas supply before carrying out conversion. The gas hob belongs to the categories stated on the rating plate. The appliance can be converted to any other type of gas listed there using a conversion kit. The gas type is changed by:
- Replacing the main nozzles
- Adjusting the gas valves (bypass screws)
The table shows the right combination for the relevant gas type. Never remove the gas valve shaft. In the event of damage or unusual gas conversion, the entire gas valve must be replaced. Call the after-sales service.
Replacing the main nozzles in the standard burner and high output burner
- Remove the pan supports and all burner parts.
- Undo the fastening screws on the cooktop. Carefully lift up and remove the cooktop and disconnect the connection cable on the back of the control panel.
- Remove the securing clips from the burner pipes. Pull out the burner pipes. The electrode can remain connected. Unscrew the burners (lox T20) and pull out the burner pipes.
- Pull the nozzles off the burner pipes by hand and remove the O- ring.
- Check that the O-ring is seated correctly in the new main nozzles. Fit the nozzles to the burner pipes. Take care not to bend the burner pipes when doing so.
- Fit the burners onto the burner pipes. Fit the securing clips. Screw the burners tightly into place.
- Loosen the screw and then adjust the air regulating sleeve on the outer burner to the correct setting (see nozzle table – L1). Retighten the screw.
- Adjust the air regulating sleeve on the inner burner to the correct setting by turning or pushing it (see nozzle table-L2).
Replacing the main control nozzles: Wok burner
- Remove the securing clips from the burner pipes. Pull out the burner pipes. Unscrew the screw on the air regulating sleeve. Remove the nozzle retaining head.
- Pull off the nozzle and O-ring for the inner burner ring by hand. Unscrew the nozzle for the outer burner ring (WAF 10).
- Check that the O-ring is seated correctly in the new main nozzle for the burner inner ring. Fit the nozzle onto the burner pipe. Screw the new main nozzle for the outer burner ring as far as it will go into the nozzle retaining head.
- Fit the nozzle retaining head and burner pipes. Fit the securing clips.
- Loosen the screw and then adjust the air regulating sleeve to the Correct setting (see nozzle table). Retighten the screw.
Adjusting the gas valve
A Risk of damage!
Do not over-tighten the bypass screws. If necessary, adjust the bypass screws
M using a Torx Screwdriver (see table):
- up: The bypass screws must be flush with the top edge of the frame.
- down: The bypass screws must be screwed in fully.
Assembly
- Connect the connection cable on the back of the control panel.
- Put the cooktop in place and tighten the screws evenly.
- Put the burner parts and pan support in place, making sure they are positioned correctly.
- Attach the control knobs.
Check that the appliance is working after conversion: Yellow tips must not be visible on the flames. When turning the control know quickly between the highest and the lowest setting, the burner must not go out and flashback must not occur.
Note: Attach the sticker showing the new gas type next to the rating plate on the appliance.
