2 POSITIONING OF THE HOB 
 
The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must be carried out by a competent tradesman. Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood, as long as they are heat-resistant (T 90°C).
2.1 Attachment to support structure, traditional built-in 
model 
Create an opening with the dimensions shown in the figure in the work surface. 
 
 
A (mm) B (mm) C (mm) D (mm) E (mm) L (mm) X (mm) Y (mm) 
min 110 min 460 min 750 20÷50 min 50 700 492 700 
 
Carefully position the gasket provided all around the outer edge of the hole 
in the work surface as shown in figure 2, pressing it down lightly to ensure 
it adheres properly. The front and rear sides of the gasket must skim the 
hole. Now place the hob on the insulating gasket and use the screws and 
fixing brackets (fig. 4) to secure the hob to the supporting structure, 
adjusting it until perfectly horizontal. 
Carefully trim off the excess edge of the gasket C (Fig.3). The 
dimensions in figure 2 below refer to the distance between the hole and 
the inside edge of the gasket. Do not fit the brackets shown in fig. 4 until 
the hob has been set in 
place.

This type of appliance also requires a cut 3 mm deep in the work-top 
with the dimensions shown in figure 4 (detail A, figure 2). 
Before positioning the hob, position the adhesive sponge material “E” 
supplied over the milled surface (fig. 2). Now place the hob on the cut 
in the work-top and use the screws and fixing brackets (sequence 
shown in Fig. 3) to secure the hob to the supporting structure, adjusting 
it until perfectly horizontal. Do not fit the brackets shown in fig. 3 until 
the hob has been set in place.

Apply a layer of “waterproof primer” to the milled surface. 
   
  
Important: Other types of installation will only be possible under the
manufacturers supervision. 
   
Overall dimensions: location of gas and electrical connection points (all 
measures in mm). 
 
Warning: the bottom surface of the hob can become very hot. 
To avoid a hazard, under-bench access must be restricted. 
Refer to installation instruction  
						

							 
 
Instructions for the installer

IMPORTANT: when installing the appliance above a cupboard, a dividing 
shelf, as shown above, must be installed. 
If installed above an under-bench oven, this is not required. 
Installation of an oven without cooking fan underneath the hob is 
forbidden. 
 
 
2.3 Electrical connection 
 Make sure that the voltage and capacity of the power supply cable conform 
to the data shown on the plate located under the protective cover. Do not 
remove this plate for any reason. 
 The power supply cable plug and the wall socket must be of the same type 
and conform to the current electrical system regulations.  Check that the 
power line is adequately earthed. 
 On the power line, install an all-pole disconnect switch with minimum contact 
gap of 3 mm located at an easily accessible position near the appliance. 
 
Do not use reducers, adapters or shunts. 
  
						

							 
 
Instructions for the installer 
  
26 
  
If the power cable is to be replaced, 
the wire section on the new cable must 
not be less than 0.75 mm2 (3 x 0.75 
cable), bearing in mind that the end to
be connected to the appliance must 
have the earth wire (yellow-green) at 
least 20 mm longer.  Use only H05V2V2-F cable or similar which has a maximum temperature of 
90°C.  Any replacement needed should be carried out by a specialised 
technician who should make the mains connections according to the 
following diagram.  
L = brown 
N = blue 
 = yellow-green   
 
 The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals 
and for damage to property resulting from non-observance of the above 
prescriptions or from tampering with any part of the appliance.   
2.4 Ventilation requirements 
  
The appliance may be installed only in rooms with permanent ventilation, 
as required by standards regulations in force. The room in which the 
appliance 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 grills, must be appropriately 
sized and placed so as not to be blocked in any way.  
The room must be suitably ventilated to avoid overheating or excess 
humidity produced by cooking; after any prolonged use, a window should 
be opened or the speed of any fans should be increased.  
2.5 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 qualified specialist, respecting the positions and 
distances prescribed by standards.  After installation, the installer must 
issue a certificate of conformity.

2.6 Gas connection 
Connection to the gas mains may be made with a rigid copper pipe  or 
with a flexible pipe  conforming to the provisions defined by standard 
regulations in force.  
After connection operations, check for leaks using a soapy solution.  
The hob has been inspected for G20 natural gas (2H) at a pressure of 20 
mbar. For use with other types of gas, see chapter “3. ADJUSTMENT TO 
DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS. The hose connection at the rear of the 
appliance has a  ½” internal thread  (ISO 228-1). 
 Connection with rigid copper pipe: 
the connection to the gas mains must 
not provoke stress of any kind on the 
appliance.  
Connection may be made by using 
biconical adapter D  with insertion of 
gasket  C supplied. 
 
Connection with flexible steel pipe: 
use only flexible stainless steel pipes 
conforming to standard regulations, in 
force inserting gasket C supplied 
between the fitting A and the flexible 
pipe B.   
   
  
 The flexible pipe must be installed so that pipe length does not exceed 2 
meters of maximum extension. Make sure that the pipes do not touch 
any moving parts or become crushed. 
 
2.7 Connection to LPG 
 
Use a pressure regulator and make the connection to the tank according 
to the provisions of standard regulations in force. Make sure that feed 
pressure conforms to the levels shown in the table in paragraph “3.2 
Burner and nozzle characteristics table 
  
						

							 
 
Instructions for the installer 
  
28   
3 ADJUSTMENT TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS  
  
Before performing any cleaning or maintenance work, unplug the 
appliance from the mains. 
   
  The hob is set for natural gas G20 (2H)  at a pressure of 20 mbar.  In the 
case of functioning with other types of gas the burner nozzles must be
changed and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas taps. To change the 
nozzles, proceed as described below. 
   
  
3.1 Replacement of nozzles on the hob    
  1.  Remove the grids and all the caps and flame-spreader crowns; 
2.  Unscrew the burner nozzles with a 7 mm socket wrench; 
3.  Replace the nozzles according to the type of gas to be used (see
paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”). 
4.  Replace the burners in the correct position. 
   
  
Nozzles for town gas (G110 – 8 mbar) are available from authorized
assistance centres.
