For some models a conic link is furnished to outfit for the installation in the countries whe-
re this type of link is obligatory; in the following figures it is pointed out how to recognize
the different types of links. In every case the cylindrical part of the link has to be connec-

These instructions are for Fitters qualified for installation of equipment in line with the
relevant national standard. All work must be carried out with the electricity supply dis-
connected.
The rating plate on the hob shows the type of gas with which it is designed to be used.
It is possible to use other types of gas after carrying out some simple modifications.
(See the instructions in the following paragraphs).
connection to the mains gas supply or gas cylinder should be carried out according to
the relevant national standards, after having checked that it is regulated for the type of
gas with which it will be supplied. If it is not correctly regulated follow the instructions in
the paragraph entitlet « Adaption for different types of gas». For liquid gas (cylinder
gas) use pressure regulators which comply with the relevant national standards.
N.B.: for safe operation, economic use of energy and to ensure greater durability
of the
appliance, make sure that the supply pressure conforms with the values shown
in the
table on page 44.
Use only pipes, washers and sealing washers which comply with the relevant national
standards.
When connecting the hob to the gas supply via use of flexible hoses please ensure
that the maximum distance covered by the hose does not exceed 2 metres.
N.B.: carry out a final check for leaks on the pipework using a soapy solution.
Never use a flame. Also, make sure that the flexible pipe cannot come into con-
tact with a moving part of
the cabinet (eg, a drawer) and that it is not situa
ted
where it could be damaged.
GAS CONNECTION
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check the data on the rating plate, located on the outside of the unit, to ensure that the
supply and input voltage are suitable.
Before connection, check the earthing system.
By Law, this appliance must be earthed. If this regulation is not complied with, the
Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage caused to persons or property.
If a plug is not already attached, fit a plug appropriate to the load indicated on the rating
plate. The earth wire is coloured yellow/green. The plug should always be accessible.
Where the Hob is connected direct to the electricity supply, a circuit breaker must be
fitted with at least a 3 mm contact spacing when in the open position.
If the power supply cord is damaged this is to be replaced by a qualified engineer so as
to prevent any potential risk.
The earth wire ( green a yellow coloured) must be at least 10 mm longer than the live
and neutral wires.
The section of the cable used must be of the correct size in relation to the absorbed
power of the hob.
Please check rating plate for the power details and ensure that the power supply cord
is of the type H05RR-F, H05VV-F, H05V2V2-F.
