GB  
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 in Table 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)  
! Connection to the gas system must be carried out in  
such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on the  
appliance.  
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

Ventilation  
The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas  
cylindrical male attachment.  
To ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of the  
cabinet must be removed. It is advisable to install the  
oven so that it rests on two strips of wood, or on a  
completely flat surface with an opening of at least 45 x  
560 mm (see diagrams).  
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.  
! Only use pipes and seals that comply with current  
national regulations.

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.  
! If the appliance is connected to liquid gas, the regulation  
GB  
screw must be fastened as tightly as possible.  
! Once this procedure is finished, replace the old rating  
sticker with one indicating the new type of gas used.  
Stickers are available from any of our Service Centres.  
• Adjusting the burners’ primary air :  
Does not require adjusting.  
! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary  
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable  
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet pipe (in order  
to comply with current national regulations).  
• Setting the burners to minimum:  
1. Turn the tap to the low flame position.  
2. Remove the knob and adjust the adjustment screw,  
which is positioned in or next to the tap pin, until the  
flame is small but steady.  
3. Having adjusted the flame to the required low setting,  
while the burner is alight, quickly change the position of  
the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa  
several times, checking that the flame does not go out.  
4. Some appliances have a safety device (thermocouple)  
fitted. If the device fails to work when the burners are  
set to the low flame setting, increase this low flame  
setting using the adjusting screw.  
5. Once the adjustment has been made, replace the seals  
on the by-passes using sealing wax or a similar  
substance.
