Gas connection
Caution!
The cooker should be connected to a
gas supply of the particular type of gas
that the appliance is manufactured to
function with. Information about the
type of gas that the cooker has been
adapted to by the factory is shown on
the data plate. The cooker should be
connected exclusively by an appropri-
ately authorised tter and only he or
she has the right to adapt the cooker
to a di󰀨erent type of gas.
INSTALLATION
Fitting guidelines
A tter should:
 have a gas tter’s authorisation,
 be acquainted with the information in-
cluded on the data plate of the cooker
about the type of gas to which the cooker
is adapted; the information should be
compared with gas supply conditions at
the place of installation,
 check:
- airing e󰀩ciency, that is e󰀩ciency of air
exchange in the rooms,
- tightness of gas tting connections,
- e󰀨ectiveness of all functional elements of
the cooker,
- if the electricity supply is adapted to func-
tion with a safety ground lead (zero).
 provide the user with a connection cer-
ticate and give him or her instructions
in cooker use.
Connection with a exible steel hose.
If the cooker is connected according to the
class 2 specications, sub-class I, only ex-
ible metal hose can be used which meet the
valid national regulations. Gas feeding con-
nector must be G ½” threaded coupling.
Use only pipes and ttings that meet the
requirements of the valid standards. Maxi-
mum admissible length of the exible hose
is 2000 mm.
Make sure the connection is not touching
any mobile elements which could damage
the hose.
Connection with a stable pipework.
The cooker comes with a G ½” threaded
coupling.
The connection to gas supply must be done in
a manner that excludes stresses in any point
of the pipework or parts of the appliance.
Make sure you do not exceed the torque
when making the connection (maximum
torque is 20 Nm). Otherwise, the connection
may be faulty or leaks may occur.
The gas hose should not touch metal ele-
ments of the cooker back shield.
Caution!
The cooker may only be connected
to a liquid gas cylinder or the existing
gas supply by an authorised tter,
observing all safety rules.
Caution!
On completion of the cooker installa-
tion, the tightness of all connections
should be checked, e.g. applying
water with soap.
Do not use re to check tightness.
Important!
Each time you replace a reducer
carry out technical inspection of the
cooker that covers gas valves and
proper operation of the ame failure
cut-o󰀨 device.
The gas connection can be located on the
right or left side of the appliance. Gas sup-
ply valve on the gas connection must be
easily accessible.
