Operation Manual

INSTALLATION
The appliance must be installed by qualified staff working in
accordance with the regulations in force.
Before installing, ensure that the appliance is correctly preset
for the local distribution conditions (gas type and pressure).
The presettings of this appliance are indicated on the name-
plate shown on the cover.
This appliance is not connected to a flue gas extractor device. It
must be installed and connected in accordance with the regula-
tions in force.
This appliance may only be installed and may only operate in
rooms permanently ventilated in accordance with national regu-
lations in force.
VENTILATION
The rooms in which gas appliances are installed must be well
ventilated in order to allow correct gas combustion and ventila-
tion.
The air flow necessary for combustion is at least 2 m
3
/h for each
kW of rated power.
POSITIONING
Remove the packaging accessories, including the films cover-
ing the chrome-plated and stainless steel parts, from the cooker.
Position the cooker in a dry, convenient and draft-free place.
Keep at an appropriate distance from walls which may be dam-
aged by heat (wood, linoleum, paper, etc.).
The adjoining sides of the kitchen units must be kept about 2
cm from the cooker, must not be higher than the work surface
and must withstand a temperature of 80° C.
CONNECTING TO THE GAS SUPPLY
Before connecting the cooker, 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 connection
is on the right; if the pipe has to pass behind the cooker, it must
be kept low down where the temperature is about 50°C.
- Rigid connection (see fig. 3 A + B)
The connection to the mains gas supply may be made using a
rigid metal pipe or with a metal hose. Remove the hose
connector (if already fitted) and screw the rigid union onto the
threaded connection of the gas train (see fig. 3A). The union
for rigid connection may already be fitted on the gas train, or
may be amongst the cooker accessories. Otherwise, it can be
obtained from your dealer.
If national regulations permit, a metal hose complying with the
national standards can be screwed directly onto the threaded
connection of the gas train, fitting a seal (see fig. 3B). However,
users are strongly recommended always to fit the rigid union.
- Connection using a rubber hose (see fig. 3C + D). (For
butane/propane gas only).
Connect a rubber hose carrying the conformity mark currently
in force to the hose connector. The hose must be replaced at
the date indicated at the latest, and must be secured at both
ends using standard hose clamps. It must be absolutely
accessible to allow its condition to be checked along its
entire length.
CAUTION:
- Use of the hose connector is only permitted for free-
standing installation. If the appliance is installed between
two class 2 st. 2-1 unions, the rigid union is the only form
of connection permitted.
IMPORTANT:
- After installation, check that the connections are airtight.
- For operation with bottled gas B/P , check that the gas pressure
is as indicated on the operating data plate.
- For LPG, use a hose which complies with the national
regulations in force.
- Avoid sharp bends in the pipe and keep it well way from hot
surfaces.
References to the regulations covering the gas connection to
the appliance: ISO 7-1.
CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICAL MAINS
Before making the connection, check that:
- the mains voltage is as indicated on the operating data plate;
- the earth connection is in good working order.
If the socket is not easily accessible, the installation engineer
must provide a switch with a contact breaking gap of 3 mm or
more.
If the appliance power lead is not fitted with a plug, use an ap-
proved standard type, remembering that:
- the green-yellow wire must be used for the earth connection;
- the blue wire is the neutral;
- the brown wire is live;
- the lead must never touch hot surfaces over about 75 degrees
C;
- replacement leads must be of type H05RR-F or H05V2V2-F
of suitable size (see diagrams in fig. 2).
- if the appliance is supplied without lead, using type H05RR-F
or H05V2V2-F cable of suitable size (see diagrams in fig. 2).
IMPORTANT: the manufacturer declines all liability for damage
due to failure to comply with the regulations and standards in
force. Check that the appliance is correctly connected to the
earth (see diagrams in fig. 2 at the back of the manual).
FOR COOKERS WITH ELECTRIC IGNITION
The correct gaps between the electrode and the burner are
shown in figures 4and 5.
If no spark is generated, do not keep on trying as this might
damage the generator.
Possible causes of malfunctions:
- spark plug damp, dirty or broken;
- electrode-burner gap not correct;
- spark plug wire broken or without sheathing;
- spark discharging to earth (to other parts of the cooker);
- generator or microswitch damaged;
- air has built up in the pipes (particularly if the cooker has been
out of use for a long time);
- air-gas mixture incorrect (poor fuel setting).
THE SAFETY DEVICE
The correct gap between the end of the thermocouple sensor
and the burner is shown in figures 4 and 5.
To check that the valve is working properly, proceed as follows:
- ignite the burner and leave it to work for about 3 minutes;
- turn off the burner by returning the knob to off position (
);
- after 90 seconds turn the knob pointer to the "on" position;
- release the knob in this position and move a burning match
towards the burner; IT MUST NOT IGNITE.
Time needed to excite the magnet during ignition: 10 seconds
approx.
Automatic tripping time, after flame has been turned off: not more
than 90.
IMPORTANT
- Before doing any work inside the cooker, disconnect the mains
plug and shut the gas tap.
- Never use matches to check the gas circuit for leaks. If a spe-
cific control device is not available, foam or very soapy water
can be used.
- When re-closing the hob, check that the electrical wires of the
spark plugs (if present) are not close to the injectors, so that
they cannot run across them.
