replacing the cable  
Use a rubber cable of the type H05RR-F with a suitable cross section 3 x  
0.75 mm².  
The yellow-green earth wire must be 2-3 cm longer than the other wires.  
! The hob can only be installed above built-in ovens with a cooling ventilation  
system.  
Gas connection  
Where a hob is installed above an oven without a forced ventilation cooling  
system, adequate ventilation must be provided inside the cabinet by means  
of air holes through which air can pass (see figure).  
The appliance should be connected to the main gas supply or to a gas  
cylinder in compliance with current national regulations. Before carrying out  
the connection, make sure the cooker is compatible with the gas supply you  
wish to use. If this is not the case, follow the instructions indicated in the  
paragraph “Adapting to different types of gas.”  
When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator which  
complies with current national regulations.  
!Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent with the values indicated  
inTable 1 (“Burner and nozzle specifications”).This will ensure the safe operation  
and longevity of your appliance while maintaining efficient energy consumption.  
Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)

place any strain of any kind on the appliance.  
The hob is designed to work with alternating current, the supply voltage and  
frequency indicated on the rating plate (situated under the hob). Make sure  
that the local supply voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated on the  
rating plate.  
There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting on the appliance supply ramp  
and this is fitted with a seal in order to prevent leaks. The seal must always  
be replaced after rotating the pipe fitting (seal provided with appliance). The  
gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.  
Connecting the supply cable to the mains electricity supply  
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a threaded  
attachment  
The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.  
These pipes must be installed so that they are never longer than 2000 mm  
when fully extended. Once connection has been carried out, make sure that  
the flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts and is not compressed.  
For models supplied without a plug, fit a standard plug suitable for the load  
indicated on the rating plate, onto a cable and connect to a suitable socket.  
To connect direct to the mains supply, a double pole switch with a contact  
separation of at least 3mm suitable for the load and complying with current  
standards and regulations must be fitted between the appliance and the  
mains supply outlet.  
The green-yellow earth wire must not be interrupted by the switch.  
The supply cable must be positioned so that no part of it reaches a temperature  
of 50°C above room temperature. For installation above a built-under  
oven, the hob and the oven must be connected separately to the electricity  
supply, both for safetly reasons and for easy removal of the oven for repair,  
maintenance etc.  
! Only use pipes and seals that comply with current national regulations.  
Checking the tightness of the connection  
! When the installation process is complete, check the pipe fittings for leaks  
using a soapy solution. Never use a flame.  
Adapting to different types of gas  
DO NOT use adapters as they could cause overheating or burning.  
Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that:  
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other than default type (indicated  
on the rating plate at the base of the hob or on the packaging), the burner  
nozzles should be replaced as follows:  
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their seats.  
2. Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner, and replace them  
with nozzles for the new type of gas (see table 1 “Burner and nozzle  
characteristics”).  
3. Reassemble the parts following the above procedure in the reverse order.  
4. Once this procedure is finished, replace the old rating sticker with one  
indicating the new type of gas used. Sticker are available from any of our  
Service Centres.  
The limiter switch and the domestic system can withstand the load from  
the appliance (see rating plate).  
The supply system is efficiently earthed according to standards and laws  
in force.  
The socket or double-pole switch are easily accessible when the appliance  
is installed.  
! The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following  
code:

Practical advice on using the burners  
To ensure the burners operate efficiently:  
Use appropriate cookware for each burner (see table) so that the flames  
do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.  
Always use cookware with a flat base and a cover.  
When the contents of the pan reach boiling point, turn the knob to minimum.

Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances  
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream.  
Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise  
the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce  
the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation,  
that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.
