Instructions for the installation technician

CAUTION: This appliance must only be installed and used in rooms with permanent ventilation to local standards.
Installation of the appliance and its connection to the electrical mains must only be carried out by QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
Before any procedure, it is important to check that the appliance is DISCONNECTED from the electrical mains. The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage arising from installation in breach of the regulations in force or from failure to comply with the accident prevention regulations.

Installation premises
For proper operation of a gas appliance, the air necessary for the combustion of the gas must be able to flow into the room naturally. The air must flow into the room directly through openings in the outside walls. These openings must have an unobstructed cross-section not less than 2m 3/hfor each kw of power (see total power in kw on the appliance nameplate).
This opening must be constructed so that it will not be obstructed from inside or outside, or constructed close to the floor. The opening is recommended to be on the side opposite to that on which the flue gases are discharged. If it is not feasible to provide these openings in the room where the appliance is installed, the necessary air may be taken from an adjacent room, provided that:

• This room is not a bedroom or a hazardous environment;
• This room has ventilation;
• The ventilation between the room where the appliance is installed and the adjacent room has openings.
• Minimum height from pan support to kitchen cabinet board is 850mm.

Discharge of flue gases
Gas cooking appliances must discharge their flue gases through hoods connected directly to flues or the outdoors.
If it is not possible to install the hood (fig. B) an electric fan must be installed on the outside wall or the window of the room, provided it is possible for the ventilation opening
to be increased in proportion to the delivery rate of the fan (fig. C). For a kitchen, the delivery rate of this electric fan must guarantee an hourly air exchange of 3-5 times its volume. In both instances, the use of flues already used by other appliances to discharge the flue gases is forbidden.
Connection to the gas supply
The gas Connection must be made in accordance with the local standards. When installing, fit a safety tap at the end of the pipeline. The appliance leaves the factory tested and set for the type of gas indicated on the plate inside the bottom guard, close to the gas
connection pipe. Make sure that the type of gas to be supplied to the appliance is the same as that shown on the plate. Otherwise, follow the instructions provided in the “Adapting to different types of gas” section.
For maximum efficiency and minimum consumption, make sure that the gas supply pressure complies with the values shown in the gas used is different from that specified (or variable).a suitable pressure regulator must be installed on the supply pipeline.
The union must be fitted on the end of the gas train. Complete with G1/2＂ threaded nut, fitting the gasket between the components as shown in the illustration. The gaskets must comply with the local standards. Screw the parts together without forcing, fit the union so that it points in the direction required then tighten all parts.
Connection
Make the connection to the gas system using a rigid metal pipe and regulation unions, or with a stainless steel hose complying with the local standard. If metal hoses are used, take care that they do not come into contact with mobile parts and are not crushed. This must also be checked if the hob is to be combined with an oven.
The gas intake connection of the appliance has a “ male thread.” When making the connection, take care not to apply stresses of any kind to the appliance.
**** When the installation is complete, always check that all the unions are absolutely tight using a soapy solution. Never use a flame to make this check.

Electrical connection
The appliance is profited to operate with a power supply voltage of 230Vsingle-phase. The connection must be made in accordance with the regulations and laws in force.
Before making the connection, make sure that:

1. the safety circuit-breaker and the electrical system are able to withstand the load of the appliance(see nameplate).
2. The power supply system has an earth connection in good working order in accordance with the regulations in force;
3. The socket or omni polar switch use are easily accessible with the appliance installed.

Fit a plug suitable for the load on the power lead and connect it to a suitable safety socket.
If you wish to make a direct connection to the mains, an omni polar switch with a gap between the contacts of at least 3 mm, of suitable rating for the load and complying with the regulations in force, must be installed between the appliance and the mains. The switch must not break a contact in the yellow/green earth wire.
The brown live wire (connected to the “L” terminal of the terminal board) must always be connected to the live wire of the power supply mains.
In all cases, the power supply lead must be positioned so that it does not reach a temperature 50oC above the room temperature at any point. One example of an ideal route is shown in the illustration. The cable is guided by means of band clamps fixed to the side of the cabinet, in order to avoid any contact with the appliance underneath the hob.

Replacing the power supply lead
If the lead has to be replaced, only HO5RR-For HO5RN-F type cables suitable for the load and the operating temperature must be used. In addition, the yellow/green earth wire must be about 2 cm longer than the live and neutral wires.

Adapting to the different types of gas

Changing the nozzles

1. Remove the pan standee.
2. Remove the burner caps and flame caps from the burners.
3. Use a size 7 socket wrench to unscrew and remove the nozzles, replacing them with those corresponding to the type of gas to be used (see the table).
4. Reassemble the parts, reversing the operations described above.
5. Then replace the setting data (close to the mains gas connection) with the one for the new type of gas If the pressure of the gas used is different from that specified (or variable), a suitable gas pressure regulator complying with the standard must be installed on the supply pipeline.

Setting the minimum level

1. Light the burner as already described.

2. Turn the tap to the minimum flame position.

3. Remove the control knobs.

4. PG TO NG:
   Use a thin blade screwdriver to turn the by-pass screw located above left of the gas valve, shaft as shown right. Turn gently the by-pass screw clockwise to the end completely then turn it anti-clockwise 1/2 turn for the Triple flame burner, 3/4 turn for the Large rapid burner, 1/2 turn for the Medium Semi-rapid Burner and 3/8 turn for the Auxiliary burner.
   NG TO LPG:
   Use a thin blade screwdriver to turn the by-pass screw located above left of the gas valve shaft as shown right. Turn gently the by-pass screw clockwise to the end.

5. Finally, check that the burner does not go out when the tap is turned quickly from the maximum to the minimum position.

Building into fitted kitchen units

These hobs are designed for installation in fitted kitchen units up to 600mm deep with suitable characteristics.
Any cabinet side panels taller than the height of the hob itself must be at least 150mm away from the opening into which the hob is inserted.
The dimensions of the hob and the installation opening are shown in the illustration.

Insertion and fixing
Before inserting the hob in the installation opening, place the special gasket around the bottom edge of the hob.
It is important to fix this gasket evenly, without gaps or overlapping, to prevent liquid from seeping underneath the hob.

1. Remove the pan stands and the burner caps and turn the hob upside down, taking care not to damage the ignition plugs and the thermocouples.
2. Place the gasket around the bottom edge of the hob as shown in the illustration on the right.
3. Place the hob in the installation opening and push it down so that the hob  is resting firmly on the cabinet, asshow in the illustration. The side springs will hold it in place.

Installation options

On base cabinet with door
When constructing the cabinet, suitable precautions must be taken to prevent contact with the casing of the hob, which becomes very hot during operation. The recommended method for overcoming this problem is illustrated in fig.1The panel underneath the hob must be easily removable to allow the hob to be locked in position and released in case of servicing work

On base cabinet with oven
The installation compartment must have the dimensions shown in figures 2 and 3 and must have supports to allow satisfactory ventilation.
Two possible methods for avoiding overheating are illustrated in figures 3 and 4.
The electrical connections of the hob and oven must be made separately both for electrical reasons and to simplify removal of the oven through the front of the cabinet.
Wall cabinets or extractor hoods must be at least 650 mm above the hob.

Instructions for use

The hob control knobs
The symbols on the control knobs mean the following:
no gas flow

Lighting the burners
To obtain a flame more easily, light the burner before placing a cooking utensil on the pan stand
To light a burner, proceed as follow: for Version with lighting integrated in the control knob push the knob of the burner fully down and turn it anticlockwise to the “maximum flow” setting symbol, or press the button if the appliance has individual lighting.
After lighting the flame, keep the knob pressed for about 10 seconds: this time is necessary to heat up the “thermocouple”(Fig.1-C) and activate the safety valve, which would otherwise cut off the gas flow.
** Then check that the flame is even and turn the control knob to adjust the flame as required
In the instance of a power cut, place a flame near the burner and proceed as already described.
If the flame does not light after a few attempts, check that the “burner cap” and “flame cap” are correctly positioned.
To turn off the flame, turn the control knob clockwise to the symbol.
Before removing pans from the burners, always lower or turn off the flame.
For correct use of the hob**
For lower gas consumption and better efficiency: Use only flat-bottomed pans of dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in the table on the right. Also, as soon as a liquid comes to the boil take care to turn the flame down to a level that will just keep it boiling.

**** During cooking processes involving fats or oils, watch your foods carefully because these substances may catch fire if brought to high temperatures.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before each operation, disconnect the appliance from the electrical mains and allow it to cool down.
General cleaning
Wash enameled parts with lukewarm water and detergent: do not use abrasive products which might damage them.
Wash the flame caps and burner caps often with boiling water and detergent, taking care to remove all deposits
The hob pan stands can also be washed in a dishwasher
For stubborn dirt, use ordinary non-abrasive detergents or specific commercial products. We strongly advise you not to use scouring pads. Steel wool or acids for cleaning.
Hob
Clean t he hob regularly with a soft cloth wet with lukewarm water and a little liquid detergent. Do not use the following products:
– household detergents or bleaches;
– soaped scouring pads not suitable for non-stick utensils;
– steel wool scouring pads;
– stain removers for baths or sinks.
If the hob gets very dirty, use specific commercial products.

Ignition plug
Automatic burner ignition is provided (when installed) by a ceramic “plug” and a metal electrode (B in fig.1). Periodically clean these parts of the hob thoroughly.
In addition, to avoid ignition difficulties, check that the cavities in the burner are not obstructed. To remove deposits from the burner cavities, remove the cap and separate the two parts (see diagram on the right). After cleaning, put the two parts back together and return them correctly to their position. After washing, replace the hob pan stands, checking that they are correctly positioned.
Routine maintenance
Have the condition and efficiency of the gas pipe and the pressure regulator (if installed) checked periodically. If anomalies are found, do not repairs but have the faulty part replaced.
To ensure good performance and safety, the gas regulator taps must be greased periodically.
**** Periodic lubrication of the taps must only be carried out by qualified personel, who must also be contacted if the appliance malfunctions.
