OPERATION ON N.G./S.N.G
This appliance is supplied for use with Natural
Gas. However, it can be converted for use with
LPG. Refer to LPG Conversion on page 19.
SUPPLY PIPE SIZING
The total hourly gas consumption for the
appliance is shown on the data label. The
required supply pressure (i.e. at inlet to appliance
regulator) for each gas type is shown on the data
label, and given in Table 3 (page 18). Use this
information in conjunction with the length of run,
number of elbows, tees and bends, the available
service pressure and the supply requirements of
other installed appliances to determine a suitable
pipe size.
For assistance in this matter refer to the
appropriate section of AS/NZS 5601.1 or
AS/NZS 5601.2.
An AGA certified class B or D flexible connection
may be used to connect the cooktop in
accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1, in particular
section 5.9 and clause 6.10.1.8, or AS/NZS 5601.2,
in particular section 2.11.
Where a hose assembly is used and the cooktop
is in the installed position, the hose assembly shall
be suitable for connection to a fixed consumer
piping outlet located at a point 800 – 850mm
above the floor and in the region outside the width
of the appliance to a distance of 250mm. The
point of connection to consumer piping must be
accessible with appliance installed.
ELBOW POSITIONING
It is possible to reposition the elbow if required
by loosening the locking nut and elbow by using
two spanners. Re-tighten the entire assembly
after the elbow has been repositioned. When
fitting elbow to appliance, ensure that the sealing
washer is fitted.
Note to Installer:
Assembly of elbow to manifold
at rear of unit requires two spanners to secure
locking nut and ensure leak free connection. For
this reason the elbow is best secured onto cooktop
manifold before installing unit into benchtop.
