Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective
ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
Installation
IMPORTANT
: The hob must be installed by a competent person to the relevant Gas Standards. Please, ensure that, once the hob is
installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials, which were put on in the factory.
Any gas installation must be carried out by a competent person.
The manufacturer will not accept liability, should the above instructions or any of the other safety instructions incorporated in this book
be ignored.
On the end of the shaft, which includes the GJ 1/2" threaded elbow, adjustment is fixed so that the washer is fitted between the
components as shown in the diagram. Screw the parts together without using excessive force.
Important: When installing the hob above a built-in oven, the oven should be placed on two wooden strips; in the case of a joining
cabinet surface, remember to leave a space of at least 45 x 560 mm at the back.
When installing on a built-in oven without forced ventilation, ensure that there are air inlets and outlets for ventilating the interior of the
cabinet adequately.
Gas Connection
Connection to the gas supply should be with either rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel or copper. The connection should be suitable for
connecting to RC 1/2 (1/2 BSP male thread). When the final connection has been made, it is essential that a thorough leak test is carried
out on the hob and installation. Ensure that the main connection pipe does not exert any strain on the hob. When a flexible tube is used,
keep that it cannot contact with a moveable part of the housing unit and does not pass through any space susceptible of becoming
congested.
It is important to install the elbow correctly, with the shoulder on the end of the thread, fitted to the hob connecting pipe. Failure to ensure
the correct assembly will cause leakage of gas.

Cut Out dimensions
The dimensions of the cut-out are given in the diagram. (Dimensions are given in mm.)
(See Figure 6*)
Fitting the Hob into the worktop
Carry out the building in of the hob as follows:
●
Put the seals supplied with the hob, on the edges of the cut out taking care that the seals meet without overlapping;
●
Place the hob in the cut out, taking care that it is centered
●
Fix the hob with the relevant fixing clamps and screws, as shown in the diagram. When the screws have been tightened, the excess
seal can be removed.
(See Figure 7*)
The edge of the hob forms a double seal which prevents the ingress of liquids.
Check the hob after installation & before using
When the hob has been fully installed it will be necessary to check the minimum flame setting. To do this, follow the step below,
---Turn the gas tap to MAX position and ignite
---Set the gas tap to the MIN flame position then turn the control knob from MIN to MAX several times. If the flame is unstable or is
extinguished follow the procedure below.
