Adaptation to a different type of gas
If the hob is to be converted for use with a type of gas
other than that for which it was set in the factory
(indicated on the label to be found on the hob), the burner
nozzles should be replaced as follows:
• Remove the pan supports and the burners.
• Unscrew the nozzles “A” (fig.6) using a 7 mm socket
wrench and replace them with the ones which have a
diameter suitable for the type of gas to be used,
according to the table 1 "burners and nozzles
specifications).
• Reassemble the parts following the instructions in
reverse order.
Adjusting the low flame
- Put the tap to the low flame position;
- Remove the tap knob and turn the adjusting screw,
situated inside or to the side of the tap stem (fig.7),
using a screwdriver (loosening the screw increases
the height of the flame, tightening decreases it).
note: the adjusting screw must be fully screwed down
for liquid gas.
- Having obtained the low flame setting required and
with the burner lit, abruptly change the position of the
knob several times from minimum to maximum and
vice versa and check that the flame does not go out.
• On completing the operation, replace the old rating
label with the one showing the new type of gas; the
sticker is available from Hotpoint Service (see KEY
CONTACTS, back page).

Gas supply connection
• Check that the appliance is set for the type of gas
available and then connect it to the mains gas piping
or the gas cylinder in compliance with current
regulations and standards.
• This appliance is designed and set to work with the
gas indicated on the label situated on the actual hob. If
the gas supply is other than the type for which the
appliance has been set, proceed with replacing the
corresponding nozzles (provided), following
instructions given in the paragraph “Adaptation to
different types of gas”.
• For trouble-free operation, suitable use of energy and
longer life of the appliance, make sure that the supply
pressure complies with the values indicated in the table
1 "burners and nozzles specifications, otherwise install
a special pressure regulator on the supply pipe in
compliance with current standards and regulations.
• Connect in such a way that the appliance is subjected
to no strain whatsoever.
Either a rigid metal pipe with fittings in compliance with
the standards in force must be used for connecting to
the nipple union (threaded ½"G male fitting) situated at
the rear of the appliance to the right (fig.5), or flexible
steel pipe in compliance with the standards in force,
which must not exceed 2000 mm in length.
Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket
(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced.
Upon completion of installation, check the gas circuit,
the internal connections and the taps for leaks using a
soapy solution (never a flame).
Also check that the connecting pipe cannot come into
contact with moving parts which could damage or crush
it.
Make sure that the natural gas pipe is adequate for a
sufficient supply to the appliance when all the burners
are lit.
Important: A pressure regulator, in compliance with the
standards in force, must be inserted when connecting
to a liquid gas supply (in a cylinder).
