Installing your hob in all simplicity
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 kit-
chen unit or a place likely to get clut-
tered.

Gas connections
● Preliminary remarks
T
OWN GAS (NATURAL GAS)OR AIR-PRO-
PANE / AIR-BUTANE.
One of the 3 following connections
must be used:
-
connection with a rigid pipe
(gas
standard G1/2).
The connection should be made at the end
of the elbow seal on the appliance,
or -
connection with a reinforced,
braided, flexible gas hose with
threaded connectors
(fig. A on the
preceding page).
You may also use a "Gazinox" type,
stainless steel flexible tube available
from your local distributor,
or
- connection with a flexible gas
hose with threaded connectors
(fig. B on the preceding page).
These hoses must not exceed 2
metres in length and their entire
length must be accessible.

Access to the whole length of the connection hose must be possible and the gas
hose must be replaced 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 soapy-water.
