LPG CONVERSION – REGULATOR

This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage. A conversion kit is included with the product for Universal LPG usage. The conversion kit contains the appropriate injectors and 1 LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below ifa conversion to suit
UNIVERSAL LPG is required:

1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner crowns to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted in jectors with the appropriate i n jectors, as
   supplied. Refer to injector orifice table for injector sizes.
   The injector size is stamped on the side o f the injector.

2. Unscrew the top hat nut from the regulator. The top hat nut and control pressure spring assembly will disengage as an assembly.

3. Unscrew the threaded pin from top hat.

4. Upturn threaded pin, so spring is free and screw pin back into the top hat until firm.

5. Refit the top hat nut assembly to the regulator ensuring that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set for connection to LPG.

6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection check for leaks using soapywater. Each hotplate valve should be turned on, one at a time, and the injector hole blanked off for several seconds.

7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by connecting a manometer to the pressure test point located on the side of the regulator body adjacent to the outlet.
   With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure
   • when all burners of the appliance are operating at maximum,
   • when the smallest burner ofthe appliance is operating at minimum.
   Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not vary from the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa by more than +0.52kPa.

8. Ifthe regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily then check the following points:
   • If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may be present in the gas supply line.
   • lf this is suspected then it may be necessary t o repeat the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range 2.75 — 7 . 0 0 k K P a .
   • Check that the insert has been fitted correctly.
   • Check that the turret screw is fully screwed down.
   • Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
   Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator still fails to perform ina satisfactory manner it should be replaced.

9. One by one, turn the Knobs to minimum and screw in the bypass screw (accessible when the knob is removed) until a small stable flame results. Turn the knob to maximum and then back t o minimum to ensure that the correct minimum flame is maintained.

10. Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas supply inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is factory fitted.

Electrical connection

• This appliance must be earthed.
• This appliance is designed to be connected to a 220-240V, 50HZ-60Hz AC electricity supply.

FAILURE TO DO SO MAY SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE APP LIANCE AND ANY SUCH DAMAGE I S NOT COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY.
Gas adustment

• Take precautions on the operations and adjustments to be carried out when converting from one gas to an other.
• **** All work must be carried out by a qualified technician.
• Before you begin, turn off the gas and electricity supply to the appliance.

1. Change the injector of the burners.
   Remove the pan support, Burner lid and Flame spreader.
   Unscrew the injector using a 7 mm box spanner and replace it with the stipulated injector for new gas supply.
   Carefully reassemble all components.
   After injectors are replaced, it is advisable to strongly tighten the injector in place.

2. Adjustment of minimum level of the flame

3. Turn the taps down t o minimum

4. Remove the knob from the tap and place a small bladed screwdriver i n the centre of the tap shaft.

5. The correct adjustment is obtained when the flame has aleng the of about 3 – 4 mm.
   – For butane/propane gas, the adjusting screw must be tightly screwed in.
   – Refit the control knob.
   – Make sure that the flame does not go out by quickly turning from maximum flow to minimum flow. I f it does then remove the control knob and make further
   adjustments to the gas flow, testing it again once the adjustment has been made.

6. Repeat this process for each one of the gas taps.

7. Attach the ULPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas supply inlet. Cover the Natural label that is factory fitted.

• Do not dismantle the tap shaft : in the event of a malfunction, change the whole tap.
• **** Before placing the burners back on the top place, make sure that the injector is not blocked.
• A full operational test and a test for possible leakages must be carried out after gas conversion. (such as soap water or gas detector)
• After completing conversion, a qualified technician or installer has to mark “V” on the right gas category t o match with the setting in rating plate. Remove the  previous setting “V” mark.

Troubleshooting

• Repairs should be performed by a licensed technician only. Improper repair may result in considerable danger to you and others.
• However, some minor problems can be resolved as follows :
