The hob must be connected to the gas supply
in accordance with the regulations in the
country of installation.
•
Gas distributed via a natural
gas network
For your safety, you must choose from the
three following connection options:
— Use rigid copper pipe
with screw-on
mechanical connectors (G1/2 gas standard
mark). Connect directly to the elbow joint
fitted on the appliance.
— Use a flexible metal corrugated hose
(stainless steel)
with screw-on mechanical
connectors
(compliant with standard
NF D 36-121) with an unlimited guarantee
(Fig. A).
— Use a reinforced rubber
hose
with screw-
on mechanical
connectors (compliant with
standard NF D 36-103) with a 10-year
guarantee
(Fig. B).
GAS CONNECTION
• Preliminary remarks
If your hob is installed above an oven or if there is a risk of the gas supply line overheating due
to the proximity of other heating elements, a rigid pipe should be used for the gas supply.
If a flexible hose or tube is used (as is the case with bottled butane), it must not come into
contact with any moving parts or be positioned where it might become snagged.
•
Note
Flexible pipes and hoses with a limited guarantee should be no more than 2 metres
long and must be accessible along their entire length. They must be replaced before the end
of their guarantee (indicated on the pipe). Whatever type of connection is chosen, after
installing the hob use soapy water to ensure that the connection is airtight.
In France, you must use a hose or a pipe bearing the stamp NF Gaz
.
