CONNECTION TO THE GAS SUPPLY
✓ Be careful when flexible pipes are used that they do not come into contact with
moving parts.
✓ To maintain the thickness of 3 cm, the hob is fitted with a channel to contain the
connection pipe.
✓ The gas inlet union can be turned in the direction required after the elbow fitting
“C” and nut “A” connection (figure 17) has been slackened (Fig. 18).
✓ Never put it in the horizontal or vertical position.
✓ Never attempt to turn the elbow “C” without having first slackened off the relative
lock
nut “A”.
✓ The gasket “F” (fig. 17) guarantees the seal of the gas connection.
It is recommended that it be replaced whenever it shows even the slightest
deformation or imperfection.
✓ Using a suitable leak detection fluid solution (e.g. Rocol) check each gas
connection one at a time by brushing the solution over the connection.
The presence of bubbles will indicate a leak. If there is a leak, tighten
the fitting and then recheck for leaks.
IMPORTANT! Do not use a naked flame to test for leaks
