Further details of the power requirement of the individual product will be found in the users' instruction and on the appliance rating plate. [. . . ] Where the Hob is connected direct to the electricity supply, a circuit breaker must be fitted with at least a 3 mm contact spacing when in the open position. If the power supply cord is damaged this is to be replaced by a qualified engineer so as to prevent any potential risk. The earth wire ( green a yellow coloured) must be at least 10 mm longer than the live and neutral wires. The section of the cable used must be of the correct size in relation to the absorbed power of the hob. Please check rating plate for the power details and ensure that the power supply cord is of the type H05RR-F, H05VV-F, H05V2V2-F. To prevent any potential damage to the hob please carry out the installation following this sequence: A) As illustrated, assemble parts in sequence: A) fixed pipe B) washer C) Elbow fitting with tapered thred connection 2) Tighten the joints with the Spanners, remembering to twist the pipes into position. For some models a conic link is furnished to outfit for the installation in the countries where this type of link is obligatory; in the following figures it is pointed out how to recognize the different types of links. These instructions are for Fitters qualified for installation of equipment in line with the relevant national standard. All work must be carried out with the electricity supply disconnected. The rating plate on the hob shows the type of gas with which it is designed to be used. It is possible to use other types of gas after carrying out some simple modifications. When the gas supply available is LPG (Bottle gas)- the screw to set the idle flame must be turned (clockwise) to the end stop. For smaller containers the gas burner should be regulated so that the flame does not overlap the base of the pan. Vessels with concave or convex base should not be used. WARNING: If a burner is accidentally extinguehed, turn the knob to the off position and do not attempt to re-ignite if for at least 1 minute. To protect the glass lid from damage and in the interests of safety, the burners/plates must be turned off and the burner/pan support/plate area must be cool before closing the lid down. If over the years the gas taps become stiff to turn it is necessary to lubricate them. Such operation must be carried out only by qualified Service Engineers. Warning use the electric ring/hotplate only after reading the paragraph related to choice of pans specifically with reference to "Use of electric hotplates". When you have carried out the new gas regulation, replace the old gas rating plate on your appliance with one (supplied with hob) suitable for the type of gas for which it has been regulated.
