1 / INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE

| APPLIANCE | |||
| Width | Depth | Thickness | |
| Cut cabinet standard | 56 cm | 49 cm | next cabinet |
| Cut cabinet recommended | 56 cm | 48 cm | next cabinet |
| Dimensions total above the work top | 71 cm | 52.2 cm | 5.5 cm |
| Dimensions total below the work top | 55.4 cm | 47 cm | 3.4 cm |
PROPER POSITIONING
Your appliance should be built in the surface of a support cabinet that is a minimum of three cm thick, made of a material that resists heat or that is covered with such a material. So as not to disturb movement of cooking utensils, there should not be to the right or left or back any obstacle within 30 cm of the hob.
If a horizontal divider wall is positioned under the hob, it should be placed between 10 cm and 15 cm away from the top of the work top. In any event, do not store aerosol cans or containers under pressure in any compartment that may exist under the hob (See "Safety Recommendations" chapter).
- FLUSH MOUNTING
To ensure that the hob and the work top are leaktight, glue the seal provided in the front pocket before installing the hob: Follow the diagram (Fig. 01).
- Remove the pan supports, the burner covers and burner heads, noting their
positions.
- Turn the hob over and carefully place it on top of the opening in the cabinet so asnot to damage the knobs and spark plugs.
- To ensure a tight seal between the housing and the work top, glue the foam seal along the exterior edge of the housing (Fig. 02).

TIPS FOR FLUSH MOUNTING


Mounting brackets

-
Place your hob in the opening of the support cabinet, carefully pulling the table toward you.
-
Reposition the burner heads, burner covers and pan supports on the hob.
Connect your hob to the gas supply (See "Gas Connection" chapter) and to the power supply (See "Electrical Connection" chapter).
-
If you wish, you can immobilise the hob using the four mounting brackets delivered with a screw (Fig. 02) to attach them to the four corners of the housing. You must use the holes provided for this purpose, according to the diagram above (Fig. 01).
-
Stop screwing when the mounting bracket starts to become deformed.
Do not use a screwdriver.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your hob must be connected to the 220-240 V~ monophase grid via a 2-pole electrical outlet plug + standardised CEI 60083 ground or an allpole cut-off device, in compliance with the current regulations.
The plug of the electrical outlet must be accessible after installation.
| CABLE CROSS-SECTION TO BE USED | |
| 220-240 V~ - 50 Hz | |
| H05V2V2F -T90 cable Ref. After-sales service: 77x9060 | 3 conductors including one ground wire |
| Cross-section of conductors in mm² | 1 |
| Fuse | 10 A |

Warning
The safety wire (green/yellow) is
connected to the appliance's ground terminal and must be linked to the installation's ground terminal . The fuse in your set-up must be 10 amperes. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a cable or a special kit available from the manufacturer or its After-Sales Service Department.

Tip
Using a gas cooking appliance results in the generation of heat and humidity in the location where it is installed. Make sure that your kitchen is well-ventilated: keep natural ventilation orifices in your home open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical ventilation hood). Intensive, prolonged use of the appliance may require additional ventilation; for example, by opening a window or more effective ventilation; by increasing power to the mechanical ventilation, if you have it. (A minimum air flow of 2m^3/h per kW of gas power is required).
Example: 70 example: 70 cm, 4 gas burners + 1 electrical cooking zone
Total power: 0.85 + 1.5 + 2.4 + 3.3 = 8.05kW
8.05 kW x 2 = 16.1 m³ h minimum flow.

HOB WITH GAS SECURITY DEVICE (according to model)
The burner safety measure is a metal rod located directly to the side of the flame.
Each burner is controlled by a tap fitted with a safety system that, in the event of accidental flame extinction (spills, draughts, etc.), quickly and automatically cuts the gas supply and prevents it from being released.
The setting for more moderate flame intensities are between symbol and the symbol .


Tip
In order to ensure the proper lighting
of the double crown burner, we suggest that you light it before placing cookware on it.
When a knob becomes difficult to turn, do not force it. Request an emergency service call for the installer.
If the flame goes out accidentally, reignite normally following the starter instructions.

Warning
- Hold the knob completely pressed
down for a few seconds after the flame
appears to trigger the safety system.
EN 2 / USING YOUR APPLIANCE
COOKWARE TO BE USED WITH GAS BURNERS
