The rooms in which gas appliances are in-
stalled must be well ventilated in order to al-
low correct gas combustion and ventilation.
Ventilation must be in accordance with AS
5601 - Gas installations. In general, the ap-
pliance should have adequate ventilation for
complete combustion of gas, proper fl ueing
and to maintain temperature of immediate
surroundings within safe limits.
Free the hob from the packaging accesso-
ries, including the fi lms covering the chrome
plated or stainless steel parts. Any adjoining
wall surface situated within 200mm from the
edge of any hob burner must be a suitable
non-combustible material for a height of
150mm for the entire lenght of the hob. Any
combustible construction above the hotplate
must be at least 600mm above the top of the
burner and no constructionshall be within
450mm above the top of the burner. Any
combustible partition parallel to and below
the hotplate must be at least 25mm below the
base of the hotplate, and a square opening
with sides of 10 cm must be made under the
gas hose elbow. You are advised to make
the gas connection before fi tting the hob into
A self-adhesive seal (A) is supplied with the
hob. This must be placed under the edge of
the box unit, as close as possible to the edge
itself (fi g. 4). The seal must run all round the
unit to ensure a perfect seal and prevent
moisture from seeping under the hob.
The hooks are secured directly to the box
There are 25mm spacers supplied with
the hotplate, which must always be fi xed
to the hotplate base panel to ensure a
25mm gap is maintained to combustible
Each spacer is composed of
two pieces of 12.5 mm each and they must
be fi tted one on top of the other. The spa-
cers must be then directly screwed into
the three holes pierced (D) in the hotplate
base. (please see fi gure 12)
Place the hob in the hole in the work top,
making sure that the adhesive ensures a
good seal between the edge of the hob and
the surface of the supporting unit (fi g. 5)
and conclude fi xing by tightening the screws
which secure the hooks (C) into their seats
(fi g. 6).In installations where it is possible
to touch the base of the hotplate, a barrier
shelf has to be installed to prevent accidental
contact with the potentially hot base of the
hotplate. If the barrier shelf is made from
ombustible materials, it must be fi tted at
least 25mm below the base of the hotplate.
The 25mm spacers supplied must be fi tted
to the base panel of the hotplate to ensure
a 25mm gap between the hotplate base and
CONNECTING TO THE GAS SUPPLY
Before connecting the hob, check that it is
preset for the gas to be used. Otherwise,
make the conversion as described in the
section headed "Adapting to different gas
types". The Gas Connection is male 1/2
BSP and is situated at the right-hand side
of the appliance, 42mm from the rear and
30mm from the RHS of the cooktop. This
appliance is suitable for connection with a

converted. Proceed as follows:
- Replace the injectors (see table on p. 3);
- regulate the minimum settings.
