USER MANUAL KM 360 - CONVERTING INSTRUCTIONS MIELE

The cooktop should have been ordered for connection to either natural gas or LP gas.

The included regulator corresponds with the gas type of the cooktop. Verify before installing. See, "To convert the regulator".

If the appliance is to be connected to a type of gas other than it was originally configured for, both the regulator and burners must be converted.

WARNING

The conversion kit must be installed by a qualified technician in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all applicable local and national codes. If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of carbon monoxide may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life. The qualified technician is responsible for the proper installation of this kit. The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is checked as specified in these instructions.

To convert the regulator

• Unscrew the hexagonal nut (silver cap) located on the top of the regulator.
  Make sure that the spring stays in place.
• Flip over the cap and screw it back in place.

A stamp should be visible on top of the cap or at the bottom of the center hole when converted ("LP" for LPG and "NG" for Natural gas).

To convert the burners

Turn off the main gas supply (if the appliance has already been installed) and disconnect the appliance from the main electrical power supply before proceeding.

The following jets and needle valves should be installed into their respective burners. Follow codes accordingly.

	Code	Jet size (Ø mm)	Code	Needle valve size (Ø mm)
Natural gas
Normal burner	150	1.50	60	0,60
Fast burner	165	1.65	65	0.65
Propane (LP)
Normal burner	72	0.72	29	0.29
Fast burner	92	0.92	40	0.40

Changing the needle valves

• Insert a screwdriver through the holes in the bottom of the cooktop, ① , and loosen the needle valves. Remove them with a pair of pliers.
  Install and tighten the new needle valves.

Changing the Jets

Remove the grates, the burner cap, ①, and the burner head, ②.
Using a 7 mm nut driver or socket wrench, unscrew and remove the jet, ③.
Install the new jet and reassemble the above parts in the reverse order.
- Save the jets and needle valves removed from the appliance for future use.

After conversion

After converting the cooktop affix the label supplied with the conversion kit next to the data plate underneath the appliance.
- Check that there are no leaks, e.g. with soapy water.
- Check that the burner is correctly assembled.
Turn on the gas supply.
Light each of the burners in turn.

When set at "low" or when the control knob is quickly turned from "high to "low" the flame should not go out.

When set at "high" the gas flame must burn with the center clearly visible.
