User manual SMEG HB6422BVN

[. . . ] Instructions for safe and proper use This manual is an integral part of the appliance and therefore must be kept in its entirety and in an accessible place for the whole working life of the cooking hob. We advise reading this manual and all the instructions therein before using the cooking hob. Also keep the series of nozzles supplied. Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with the regulations in force. [. . . ] 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 LPG G30/G31 at a pressure of 28-37 mbar. For use with other types of gases, see Section "5. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS". The gas intake fitting is 1/2 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. 8 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. 2 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. The room in which the hob is installed must have sufficient air flow to satisfy the requirements of normal gas combustion and of necessary air exchange in the room. The air intakes, protected by screens, must be appropriately sized (regulations in force) and placed so as not to be blocked in any way. The room where the oven is installed should be suitably ventilated to avoid overheating or excess humidity produced by cooking, and in the case of lengthy use a window should be opened or the speed of any ventilators should be increased. 4. 3 Discharge of combustion products Discharge of combustion products must be guaranteed by means of hoods connected to a natural draught flue with certain efficiency, or by means of forced aspiration. An efficient aspiration system requires careful planning by a specialist capable of installing it, respecting the positions and distances prescribed by standards. After installation, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity. 9 Instructions for the installer 5.
