Supply pipe sizing The total hourly gas consumption for the appliance is shown on the data label. The required supply pressure (i.e. at inlet to appliance regulator) for each gas type is shown on the data label, and given in Technical Data table.
4. With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure: • when all burners of the appliance are operating at maximum, •w hen the smallest burner of the appliance is operating at minimum. 2. Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow. Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should be replaced.
LPG CONVERSION This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage. A conversion kit is included with the product for Universal LPG usage. The conversion kit contains the appropriate injectors and 1 LPG sticker. Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit UNIVERSAL LPG is required: 1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner crowns to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted injectors with the appropriate injectors, as supplied.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (220-240 VOLTS) The appliance is supplied with a standard 7.5Amp service cord terminated by a 3-pin plug for connection to a standard household socket.
