- The safety and adjustment devices of the appliances may, during their life, only can be modified by the manufacturer or authorized service provider.
- All gas appliances can be installed as “Class 3” (fitted) in compliance with gas standards only.
- Any side walls (one only – left or right) that overcome in height the worktop, have to be 50 mm far at least.
- The adhesive used to join the laminated plastic to the piece of furniture must be able to withstand a temperature of at least 150°C, so the laminated plastic will not melt.
- The installation of all gas appliances must comply with the National Rules in force.
- This appliance is not connected to a flue for the discharge of the combustion products; therefore, it must be connected in compliance with the above-mentioned installation rules. Particular attention must be paid to the instructions given below for ventilation and aeration.
VENTILATING THE ROOM
The room where the appliance is installed must be permanently ventilated as to guarantee correct functioning according to the National Rules in force. The quantity of air required for a regular combustion of the gas and for the ventilation of the room and whose volume must be no less than 20 m3. The natural flow of air must be direct through permanent openings in the walls (that go through to the outside) of the room to be ventilated with a minimum cross-free section of 100 cm2 for appliances fitted with the Flame Safety Device (FSD) on each burner. These openings must be positioned so they are never be obstructed.
LOCATION AND AERATION
Gas appliances must always discharge the products of combustion through
extractors connected to flues or directly to the outside (see fig.3). If it is
impossible to use an extractor, a fan installed on the window or on a wall
facing the outside is allowed and should be switched on each time the
appliance is used (see fig. 4), provided the rules and regulations in force
relating to ventilation.
When a gas appliance is being used, it produces heat and humidity in the room
where it is installed. For this reason, the room must be well-ventilated,
keeping the natural ventilation openings free (fig. 2) and switching on the
mechanical aeration system (suction hood or electric fan – Figs. 3 and 4).
If the cooker is used for a long time, additional aeration may be necessary,
for instance, opening a window or for more effective aeration, by increasing
the power of the mechanical system if there is one available.
UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE
Once the outer wrapping and the inner wrappings of the various parts have been removed, check and make sure that the appliance is in perfect condition. If you haveany doubts do not use the appliance and call Hafele service center.
Some parts are mounted on the appliance and protected by a plastic film. This
protective film must be removed before ever the appliance is used. We
recommend slitting the plastic film along the edges with a sharp knife or pin.
The packaging materials used (cardboard, bags, polystyrene foam, nails. )
should not be left anywhere within easy reach of children as they are a
potential hazard source.
INSTALLING AND FIXING THE HOB
The measurements of the cavity made in the top of the modular cabinet and into which the hob will be recessed are indicated in fig.5. Cupboards or hoods have to maintain a least distance of 750 mm from the top.
Important!
It is necessary to always apply a panel of separation in wood under the hob,
positioned to at least of 5 mm distance by the bottom of the same, which has
to be easily removable to allow possible operations of maintenance (see fig.6)
The hob has a special seal that prevents liquid from infiltrating into the
cabinet. Strictly comply with the following instructions in order to correctly
apply this seal:
- Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hob, pressing it in place with the fingers
- Remove the strip of protective paper from the seal. Insert the hooks in to their relative housings (K) on the hob and set this into the hole in the cabinet.
GAS CONNECTION
Before connecting the appliance to the gas network, check the rating labeled
put on the bottom of the appliance, and correspond to the available one in the
gas network. The adjustment rating label gives all the appliance’s setting
conditions as: gas type and gas operating pressures. Once installed, check if
there are no leaks using a soap-based solution only. Never use flame! It is
forbidden!
The appliance’s gas inlet fitting is a G1/2” male threaded cylindrical gas
type in accordance with the standard ISO 228-1. When gas is distributed
through ducts, the appliance must be connected to the gas mains with:
- A flexible stainless steel, seamless pipe in accordance with the National Rules in force, with a maximum 2 meters extension and seals in accordance with the National Rules in force, N.B,: make sure that the pipe, once the appliance is installed, does not come into contact with the mobile parts of the unit in which the hob is built-in (like drawers for instance), get squashed or bent.
- A rigid steel pipe in accordance with the National Rules in force, whose joints must be made using threaded fittings in accordance with the Standard ISO 7/1. The use of hemp with suitable adhesives or Teflon tape as a sealant is not allowed.
- Brass pipes in accordance with applicable regulations, the connection of which must be used with appropriate rubber. When gas is supplied directly from a gas cylinder, the appliance, supplied by a pressure regulator in accordance with the standard EN 12864, must be connected:
- With flexible stainless steel, seamless pipes in accordance with the National Rules in force with a maximum 2 metres extension and seals in accordance with National Rules in force, N.B: make sure that the pipe does not come into contact with the mobile parts of the unit in which the hob is built-in (like drawers for instance), get squashed or bent. We recommend attaching the special adapter to the flexible pipe, easily found on the market, to facilitate connection to the pressure regulator’s hose fitting on the cylinder.
Anyway, the pipe connecting the appliance with the gas mains should lie with smooth bends, and the rubber gasket preventing leakage added by user between the appliance’s gas inlet fitting and the pipe connection must comply with the Standard EN 549.
Caution!
- Carry out the connection avoiding all kinds of stress to the appliance.
- The gas type is LPG. Unless indicated on the Specification, the gas type can’t be changed to LNG. Otherwise, the warranty is void.
OPERATION
The burners are graduated in their size and rating to provide the exact heat
required for every style of cooking.
The burners is equipped with a Flame Safety Device (FSD / Thermocouple).
On the top of each knob there is a printed diagram showing to which burner or
heating element it refers.
GENERAL NOTES ON SAFETY
- When the burners are in use do not leave them unattended and make sure there are no children around. Check the pan handles are positioned correctly and always keep an eye on the pan whenever oils or fats are used as they are easily inflammable.
- Do not use spray cans near the appliance when it is in use.
- If the built-in hob has a lid, before opening the lid, remove any food deposits from its surface.
- If the built-in hob has a crystal glass lid, it can explode if heated. Turn in “Off” position at the burners (full disk symbol on control panel) and switch off all burners; let the hob become cool before closing the lid.
- If you see any cracks on the surface of the plate, disconnect the appliance from the mains immediately.
- After you have used the appliance make sure that all the controls are in “Off” position (full disk symbol on control panel).
IGNITION
The command of lighting is integrated in the control knob. Press and turn
anticlockwise the knob corresponding to the burner you wish to use from “Off”
position (full disk symbol on control panel), untill it reaches the “Maximum”
position (fig. 2) corresponding to the big flame. The ignition spark will
shoot automatically; keep the knob pressed about for 10 seconds to allow the
Flame Safety Device (FSD) to warm up. If at the end of this time, the burner
fails to turn on, it means that FSD is not sufficiency heated. Repeat the
operation.
After ignition, turn the handle from “Maximum” position (corresponding to the
big flame) to the “Minimum” position (corresponding to the little flame) and
check flame stability. To turn “Off” the burner, turn clockwise the handle up
to “Off” position (full disk symbol on control panel).
OPTIMUM USE OF BURNERS
To get the maximum yield with the minimum consumption of gas it is handy to keep the following points in mind:
- Once the burner has been lighted, adjust the flame according to your needs, from “Maximum” to “Minimum” position.
- Use proper pan size (with flat bottom only) for each burner (see the table below and fig. 10)
- When the content of the pan start to boil, turn the knob down to “Reduced rate position” (small flame).
- Always put a lid on the pan.
MAINTENANCE
Prior to any maintenance work or cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity mains.
HOB
The surface of the hob, pan supports, enameled burner caps (C) and burner heads (T) (see fig.1) needs to be cleaned after each time they are used with warm soap water, rinsed and then dried well to keep them in good condition.
