△ = minimum gas supply

2.2.1 BURNER IGNITION

For models equipped with an electrical ignition mechanism, ignition of the burners is done by pressing in and turning the dial in the maximum flame output direction. For versions with a separate ignition button, simply press the ignition button and turn the dial corresponding to the desired burner until reaching the maximum flame output position.

For versions with no electrical ignition (or in case electrical power is unavailable), it is necessary to perform the operations described by first placing a flame close to the burner.

For models equipped with a safety valve, maintain the dial pressed during roughly 5 seconds until the device can maintain the flame lit on its own.

The safety valve is triggered in the event the flame is accidentally extinguished, blocking the gas outlet (i.e. in case of a draft, spill, etc).

In case the flame is accidentally extinguished or in case the ignition process was unsuccessful, turn off the command dial and repeat the process after roughly 1 minute.

Once the burner has ignited, regulate the flame according to your requirements.

To cut off the supply of gas, rotate the dial in the opposite direction until the « • » position is reached.

To reduce gas consumption and obtain better efficiency, we recommend using pots with diameters appropriate for each of the burners, thus guaranteeing that the flame is contained underneath (please refer to the container chart). Use flat-bottomed containers only. It is also advisable that as soon as the liquid begins to boil you regulate the flame to a lower level, enough to maintain the boiling point.

When using fats or oils, please note that once heated up these may become inflammable.

Container Chart (use only flat-bottomed containers)

Wok ( = 130 )	24	30

Certain versions are equipped with an electric hotplate. According to usage requirements, the hotplates can be regulated by turning the respective dials either clockwise or counterclockwise in 6 positions besides 0. The positions indicated by higher numeric values correspond to the maximum temperature. The lit indicator at the control section signals the use of the electrical hotplates.

Heat up	Cook	Roast - Fry
1-2	3-4	5-6

2.3.1 HOTPLATE USAGE

For greater electric hotplate service life and increased energy efficiency, we advise using only flat-bottomed containers whose diameter is inferior to that of the hotplates.

Prevent boiling liquids from overflowing and dripping onto the hotplates.

Never leave the hotplates turned on with no containers present or with containers which are empty.

Never use the electric hotplates to heat up the environment.

Turn on a hotplate only after having placed a container on top of it.

Please note that the hotplates, once turned off, still remain hot for some time.

3. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before performing any maintenance and cleaning operation, switch off the power to the device. We recommend washing the enameled parts with lukewarm water and detergent only; do not use abrasive products.

Wash the burner spreaders frequently with boiling water and detergent, making sure you eliminate all fouling and buildup which may clog flame output. Wash the stainless steel parts with water and rinse with a soft cloth.

For cleaning the device, use slightly wetted sponges and cloths; an excessive amount of water can infiltrate the internal areas of the device and eventually damage electrical parts.

The grills may be washed in the dishwasher.

For persistent stains, use normal non-abrasive detergents, specific commercially sold cleaning products or some warm vinegar. Clean the glass pane with hot water and a soft cloth.

It is not advisable to use steel wool, steel blades or acid.

To clean the electric hotplates, use wetted cloths and a light film of oil while the hotplate is still lukewarm.

Periodically or when excessive dial rotation resistance is verified, hire a qualified technician to lubricate the faucets (see figure 1).

Please contact qualified technicians so as to also eliminate eventual problems verified during usage.

4. INSTALLATION

This device belongs to category II2H3+(20;28-30/37), direct destination country PT.

The device was not designed to be hooked up to a combustion exhaust evacuation device. It should be set up and mounted in accordance with the applicable installation standards in force. Particular attention should be paid to ventilation requirements.

4.1 POSITIONING

The device should be installed and operated only in permanently ventilated environments, in accordance with the standards in force.

The natural flow of air should be made directly through permanent vents in the walls at the place of installation, which should be ventilated and connected to the exterior or by means of individual/branched ventilation tubes.

The vents should have a useful cross-section of at least 100 cm ^2 and should be protected against accidental obstructions (protected by metallic grills or mesh).

For devices without a safety valve on the working plane, venting cross-sections should be doubled, leading to a minimum cross-section of 200 cm ^4 .

Airflow can also be obtained indirectly through environments adjacent to those of the installation, as long as such areas are equipped with direct ventilation (with the exception of bedrooms or areas posing a fire hazard).

The flow of air between the adjacent areas and the installation area must be done freely by way of permanent venting (which may eventually be obtained by opportunely increasing the space between the door and the ground).

The installation area should foresee an exhaust system connected towards the exterior, which may be obtained by using a chimney or an extractor fan which is operated when the device is turned on.

4.2 GAS CONNECTIONS

Before installing the device, make sure that the local distribution conditions (gas type and pressure) are compatible with the configuration of the device itself.

The device is designed to work with the type and pressure of the gas stated on the packaging and on the label found on its lower portion.

The device must be connected in accordance with the standards and regulations in force.

In case the type of gas available does not correspond to the gas for which the device was designed, the injectors should be replaced and the old label should also be replaced with a new label, stating the new type.

For this type of operation, the qualified installer should follow the indications stated in the paragraph "Adaptations for different gas types".

Verify that the supply pressure respects the values indicated in the table "Burner and injector characteristics".

It is mandatory to secure a connection to the fixed gas installation by means of a copper or steel tube, or by using a stainless steel flexible tube, manufactured in accordance with the applicable standards.

The gas inlet tube on the device comes with a threaded plug to which the supplied elbow should be connected (ISO 228 -1/2 G male thread) (see figure 2).

The other end of the elbow should be connected to the rigid or flexible metallic supply tube. Do not to forget to place the supplied sealants on the two ends of the elbow connection.

In the event of assembly of disassembly of these parts, these sealants must imperatively be replaced.

Upon finishing the installation, verify that the tube has not been crushed or damaged by moving parts.

Important : When the device has just been installed, verify the sealant of every connection using a soap and water solution and never an open flame.

Warning :

The use of this gas appliance produces heat and humidity at the location in which it is installed. It must be ensured that good environmental ventilation is available by keeping the natural vents open or by installing an extractor fan with a chimney.

4.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Devices equipped with a power cable are designed to work with 230 V \~ alternating current having a frequency of 50/60 Hz, as indicated on the plate containing the device's technical data (located on the lower portion of the device).

The earth conductor is color-coded in green/yellow.

Connection of the device to the grid should be done by a qualified individual, in accordance with the safety standards in force.

In case the hotplates are installed above an oven, the electrical connection of both devices should be done separately, for electrical safety reasons as well as to facilitate removal of the device.

4.3.1 POWER SUPPLY CABLE CONNECTION

To directly connect to the grid, it is necessary to install a unipolar switch having a minimum aperture of 3 mm between the terminals of the device and the grid, adequate for the expected loads and in accordance with the safety standards in force. The green/yellow earth connector must not be cut off by the switch.

The brown electrical live wire must be connected to the supply grid live wire.

The power cable must be positioned so that no part of it would ever reach a temperature of over 50^ C at room temperature.

Before making the electrical connections, verify that the domestic switchboard and cutoff equipment are able to handle the load of the device (please refer to the type plate containing the device's technical data or to the table located within the instruction manual).

Also verify whether the power supply installation is endowed with an effective earth connection in accordance with the safety standards in force, and that the unipolar switch is accessible after the hotplates are installed.

The manufacturer refuses any responsibility for cases in which the safety standards in force are not adhered to.

4.4 ADAPTATIONS FOR DIFFERENT GAS TYPES

To adapt the device to a different type of gas from what it was designed for (refer to the label on the packaging and on the lower portion of the device), the following operations are necessary:

• Remove the grill
• Remove the enameled covers and spreaders (see figure 3).
• Use a 7 mm diameter tube key to remove the injectors (see figure 4)
• Replace the injectors with the ones corresponding to the type of gas available (refer to the table regarding burner and injector characteristics)
• Reassemble the different parts in the inverse order of the aforementioned operations. Do not forget to replace the old label with the new one (supplied)

4.5 MINIMUM OUTPUT ADJUSTMENT

Regulation of the minimum flame output is done at the factory. After an eventual replacement of the injectors, it is necessary to calibrate minimum flame output again. The necessary procedures for such are as follows:

• Ignite the burner
• Turn the dial towards the minimum output position
• Remove the dial (including the eventual mounted seal)
• Introduce an appropriately sized screwdriver and turn the regulation screw located inside or beside the faucet screw (see figure 5) until a small regular flame is obtained.

- Put the dial back in place and quickly turn it from the maximum to the minimum position, controlling the flame so that it is not extinguished.

- For burners supplied with a safety valve, verify that the regulation obtained is enough to maintain the heating of the probe, otherwise increase the minimum flame output.

The burners do not require primary air regulation.

4.6 FLUSH-MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

The equipment is classified as type Y, meaning it can be installed with only one lateral wall (to the right or to the left) with a height greater than that of the work plane and located at a minimum distance of 185 mm as illustrated in figure 6.

It can fit into every type of worktop having walls able to handle 65^ C above room temperature.

Avoid installing the equipment in places where inflammable materials (i.e.: curtains, dish cloths, etc.) are nearby.

4.6.1 PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS

These devices are designed to be mounted in worktops having a minimum depth of 550 mm.

The dimensions of the fitting slots are indicated in figure 6, where also stated are the minimum distances that should be respected between the slot and the eventual side piece 185 mm and the rear 60 mm.

The dimensions of the hotplates are indicated in figure 7.

4.6.2 STAINLESS STEEL OR ENAMELED HOTPLATES

• Position the supplied seal within the perimeter of the plane, making sure that the ends coincide but do not overlap.
• Introduce the plane into its place of installation, making sure that it is well centered.
• Secure the plate to the worktop using the respective support brackets (see figure 8). The traction of the screws is enough to cut the seal so that the excess can be easily removed.

Warnings

Any piece of furniture suspended over the work plane must be at a minimum distance of 600 mm from the plane.

To avoid overheating, a separation gap may be necessary in case the hotplates are installed above an oven (see figure 9). This gap is also recommended in case a triple burner is present.
