INSTALLATION
The appliance must be installed by qualified
staff working in accordance with the regula-
tions 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 indi-
cated on the nameplate 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 regulations
in force.
This appliance may only be installed and may
only operate in rooms permanently ventilated
in accordance with national regulations in
force.
VENTILATION
The rooms in which gas appliances are in-
stalled must be well ventilated in order to al-
low correct gas combustion and ventilation.
The air flow necessary for combustion is at
least 2 m
3
/h for each kW of rated power.
POSITIONING
Remove the packaging accessories, includ-
ing the films covering 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 dis-
tance from walls which may be damaged by
heat (wood, linoleum, paper, etc.).
The cooker may be free-standing (class 1)
or between two units (in class 2 st 2-1) the
sides of which must withstand a temperatu-
re of 100°C and which must not be higher
than the working table.
FITTING THE FEET (LEVELLING)
Cookers are equipped with adjustable feet
to be screwed into their front and rear corners
respectively. The feet allow the height of the
appliance to be adjusted, in order to set it
flush with the adjoining unit, to level it with
other worktops and to ensure even
distribution of the liquids in pans. See fig. 3.
BALANCING THE LID
Models equipped with plate glass lids are
fitted with special balanced springs. These
are fitted into the hinge to provide smooth,
gentle lid closure.
FITTING OVEN DOOR HANDLE
Fix the handle using the 2 screws provided.
See fig. 4.
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 degrees C.
- Rigid connection (see fig. 5 A + D)
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. 5 D). 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. 5 A). However, users are strongly
recommended always to fit the rigid union.
- Connection using a rubber hose (see fig.
5 C). (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
