Installing your hob in all simplicity
Gas connections
● Possible connections
GAS DELIVERED BY PIPE (NATURAL GAS) OR
TO BUTANE
/ PROPANE AIR
Use only the following connection:
-
connection with a rigid pipe
(gas
standard G1/2) (fig. A).
The connection should be made at the end
of the elbow seal on the appliance, or with
the aid of the tapered reducer and the
sealing ring supplied in the bag.
or -
connection using flexible
undulated metal tube with screw-on
connectors
(fig. B).
You can use a flexible stainless steel pipe
("Gazinox" type) available from your after
sales service department.
or
- connection using flexible tube wi-
th screw-on connectors
(fig. C).
These tubes must not exceed 2 meters
in length and must be accessible along
their entire length.
● Preliminary remarks
Access to the whole length of the connection hose must be possible and the gas hose must be re-
placed before its use before date (indicated on the hose).
Whatever means of connections is chosen, make sure that it is gas sound after installation by using soa-
py-water.
If the hob is to be installed above an
oven or if other nearby heating
appliances risk heating and damaging the
gas hose then it is essential that a rigid
pipe be installed instead.
If a flexible hose is used (in the case of
butane gas) then it must not be installed
in a place where it may be in contact with
a moving part of the kitchen unit or a pla-
ce likely to get cluttered.
