User manual SMEG GKE64-1

[. . . ] SHOULD THE APPLIANCE NOT FUNCTION, DISCONNECT IT FROM THE SUPPLY AND CALL THE NEAREST TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE CENTRE. ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE CONTROL KNOBS ARE IN THE POSITION "ZERO" (OFF) WHEN YOU FINISH USING THE HOB. 24 Introduction THE IDENTIFICATION PLATE, WITH TECHNICAL DATA, SERIAL NUMBER AND MARKING IS CLEARLY VISIBLE UNDER THE CASING. THE PLATE ON THE CASING MUST NOT BE REMOVED. BEFORE CONNECTING THE DEVICE, MAKE SURE THAT IT HAS BEEN REGULATED FOR THE TYPE OF GAS THAT WILL FEED IT, CHECKING THE LABEL UNDER THE HOB. [. . . ] To facilitate connection, fitting A on the rear of the appliance may be adjusted laterally. For this purpose, loosen hexagon nut B, turn fitting A to the desired position, and retighten hexagon nut B (tightness is ensured by a biconical brass ring). Use a soapy solution to check for proper tightness. The hob has been inspected for G25 (2L3B/P) natural gas at a pressure of 25 mbar. For use with other types of gases, see Section " ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS". The gas intake fitting is ½" gas external threaded (ISO 228-1). Connection with rigid copper pipe: the connection to the gas mains must not provoke stress of any kind on the hob. Connection may be made by using biconical adapter D with insertion of gasket C (supplied). Connection with flexible pipe: use only flexible pipes conforming to standard regulations in force, inserting gasket C (supplied) between fitting A and flexible pipe E. The flexible pipe has to be installed so that pipe length does not exceed 1. 5 meters of maximum extension. Make sure that the pipes do not touch any moving parts or become damaged. 29 Instructions for the installer 4. 1 Connection to LPG Use a pressure regulator and make the connection to the tank according to the provisions of standards regulations in force. Make sure that feed pressure conforms to the levels shown in the table in paragraph "5. 3 Regulation for LPG". 4. 2 Ventilation of rooms The hob may be installed only in rooms with permanent ventilation, as required by standards regulations in force. Light the burner and set it on the minimum position. Take the knob off again and turn the regulating screw on the side of the cock stem until a steady minimum flame is achieved. Refit the knob and verify the burner flame is stable (turning the knob rapidly from the maximum to the minimum position the flame must not go out). 6. 2 Regulation of minimum for LPG To regulate the minimum for LPG, completely tighten (clockwise) the screw inside or next to the gas tap pin (depending on the model). The diameters of the by-passes for each burner are given in table "5. 3 Regulation for LPG". After having regulated the device with gas other than the one tested, replace the label located on the guard with the one that corresponds to the new gas.

[. . . ] Grids, caps, flame cap crowns and burners can be removed for ease of cleaning. Wash them in warm water using a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all tough spots. Before remounting, allow the components to fully dry out. In fact, humidity residues inside the burner holes might impair burner operation. [. . . ]
