WARNING!
FIRE, EXPLOSION, AND CARBON-MONOXIDE HAZARD
If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire,
explosion, or production of carbon monoxide may result causing property
damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
This conversion kit should be installed by a qualified agency in accordance
with the appliance manufacturer’s instructions and all applicable codes and
requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction. The qualified agency is
responsible for the proper installation of this kit. The installation is not
proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is checked
as specified in the manufacturer’s instructions.
The Napoli, Firenze & Roma ovens are set up for LP use by default. However, conversion to Natural Gas (NG) is possible with the use of this kit.
This kit includes:
- Threaded NG adapter G1/2-NPT 3/8
- Sealing washer
- Pilot flame nozzle (only for Firenze and Roma ovens)
- NG Orifice
- NG Regulator
- NG hose
- NG Quick Connect
Before commencing the conversion, securely close and disconnect the LPG
bottle, storing it in a suitable location in accordance with local
regulations.
Ensure the surrounding area is clear of flammable or combustible materials.
Refrain from smoking during the conversion process.
After disconnecting the LPG line, remove the 3/8 SAE connector and its sealing washer. Replace it with the adapter (1) and the new sealing washer (2) provided in the kit.
To ensure proper operation, it is essential to replace the orifice with one designed for use with natural gas (NG), as provided in the kit:
Oven | Orifice hole size | Pilot nozzle |
---|---|---|
Napoli (6050) | 3.70 mm | No |
Firenze (6070) | 4.20 mm | Yes |
Roma (8070) | 4.60 mm | Yes |
The size is stamped near the hole on the orifice. Replace the orifice with the one supplied and suitable for your oven.
