GB IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied an ASTA approved fuse to BS1362 must be fitted. NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and fitted. A new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug. Make sure that the cable does not become trapped when pushing the cooker into position. Replacing the cable Use a rubber cable of the type H05VV-F with a cross section of 3 x 1.5 mm². The yellow-green earth wire must be 2 ÷ 3 cm longer than the other wires. Gas connection Connection to the gas network or to the gas cylinder may be carried out using a flexible rubber or steel hose, in accordance with current national legislation and after making sure that the appliance is suited to the type of gas with which it will be supplied (see the rating sticker on the cover: if this is not the case see below). When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator which complies with current national regulations. To make connection easier, the gas supply may be turned sideways*: reverse the position of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace the gasket that is supplied with the appliance. ! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent with the values indicated in the Table of burner and nozzle specifications (see below). This will ensure the safe operation and durability of your appliance while maintaining efficient energy consumption. Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose Make sure that the hose complies with current national legislation. The internal diameter of the hose must measure: 8 mm for liquid gas supply; 13 mm for methane gas supply. • Does not come into contact with blades, sharp corners or moving parts and that it is not compressed. • Is easy to inspect along its whole length so that its condition may be checked. • Is shorter than 1500 mm. • Fits firmly into place at both ends, where it will be fixed using clamps that comply with current regulations. ! If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or if the cooker must be installed according to the conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1 appliances (installed between two cupboards), the flexible steel hose must be used instead (see below). Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a threaded attachment Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with current national legislation. To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment). ! Perform the connection in such a way that the hose length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres, making sure that the hose is not compressed and does not come into contact with moving parts. Checking the tightness of the connection When the installation process is complete, check the hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a flame. Adapting to different types of gas It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas other than the default type (this is indicated on the rating label on the cover). Adapting the hob Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners: 1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their seats. 2. Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner (see fi gure), and replace them with nozzles suited to the new type of gas (see Burner and nozzle specifications Once the connection has been performed, make sure that the hose: • Does not come into contact with any parts that reach temperatures of over 50°C. • Is not subject to any pulling or twisting forces and that it is not kinked or bent. table). 10
