Connections
•
Bottom side of the cooking hob is fitted with gas
connection with exterior thread ISO 7-1 R ½.
Some appliances are provided with a coil with
interior thread ISO 7-1Rp ½.
•
During the installation the gas connection R ½
should be gripped tight to prevent twisting.
•
Use gaskets for connection sealing.
•
The temperature of the cooking hob bottom
exceeds the ambient temperature for 70 K. The
temperature of the ceiling and rear wall of the
oven built-in below the cooker may exceed the
ambient temperature for 70 K.
•
Connect the appliance to the gas supply by
means of approved hose.
•
If the built-in oven is located under the cooking
hob, the gas supply pipe must either be flexible
and made of stainless steel (interior and
exterior pipe), or rigid and made of copper or
steel.
•
The connection for the cooking hob built-in
independently may be non-metal flexible pipe,
but it must never touch the bottom of the
cooking hob.
•
Connection of pipe with the appliance joint must
not be submitted to torsion or any applied
pressure. This should be taken care of when
lowering the hob from upright position.; it is
important to select the most appropriate
sequence of installing connection pipe.
•
The hose may not touch the mobile parts of the
kitchen elements (f.e. the drawers) and should
move freely.
•
Connect the appliance in accordance with the
regulations of the local gas supplier.
