2.3. Gas Connection

Assembly of gas supply and leakage
check
The connection of the appliance should be
performed in accordance with applicable
local and international standards and
regulations. First, check what type of gas
is installed on the cooker. This information
is available on a sticker on the back of the
cooker. You can find the information related
to appropriate gas types and appropriate
gas injectors in the technical data table.
Check that the feeding gas pressure is
compliant with values on the technical data
table, to be able to get the most efficient
use and to ensure the minimum gas
consumption. If the pressure of used gas
is different than the values stated or not
stable in your area, it may be necessary to
assemble an available pressure regulator
on the gas inlet. You should contact
the authorised service to make these
adjustments.
Points that must be checked during
flexible hose assembly:
• If the gas connection is made by a
flexible hose fixed onto the gas inlet of
the hob, it must be fixed on by a pipe
collar.
• Connect your appliance with a short
and durable hose that is as close as
possible to the gas source.
• The permitted maximum length of the

hose is 1.5 m.
• The hose that supplies the appliance
with gas must be changed once a year
for your security.
• The hose must be kept clear of areas
that may heat up to temperatures of
more than 90°C.
• The hose must not be cracked, torn,
bent or folded.
• Keep the hose clear of sharp corners
and objects that could move.
• Before you assemble the connection,
you must make sure the hose is not
damaged. Use bubbly water or leakage
fluids to perform the check. Do not use
a naked flame to check for gas leakage.
• All metal items that are used during
gas connection must be free from
rust. Check the expiry date of any
components used for connection.
Points that must be checked during
fixed gas connection assembly:
The method used to assemble a fixed
gas connection (gas connection made by
threads, e.g. a nut) varies according to the
country you are in. The most common parts
for your country will be supplied with your
appliance. Any other parts required can be
supplied as spare parts.
During connection, always keep the nut
on the gas manifold fixed while rotating
