Read the appliance's instructions 

before installing and using.

The graphics in these Assembly 

instructions are given as a guide only.

The manufacturer is exempt from all 

liability if this manual's requirements 

are not complied with.

Safety instructions

All operations relating to installation, 

regulation and conversion to other 

types of gas must be carried out by 

an authorised installation engineer, 

respecting applicable regulations, 

standards and the specifications of 

the gas and electricity providers.

Before you begin, turn off the 

appliance's electricity and gas 

supply.

You are recommended to contact the 

Technical Assistance Service to 

convert to another type of gas.

This appliance has been designed for 

home use only, not for commercial or 

professional use. This appliance 

cannot be installed on yachts or in 

caravans. The warranty will only be 

valid if the appliance is used for the 

purpose for which it was designed.

Before installing, you need to check 

that local distribution conditions (gas 

type and pressure) and the appliance's 

adjustment are compatible (see table 

I). The appliance's adjustment 

conditions are written on the label or 

the specifications plate.

This appliance can only be installed in 

a well-ventilated place in accordance 

with existing regulations and ventilation 

specifications. The appliance must not 

be connected to a combustion product 

evacuation device.

The supply cable must be attached to 

the unit to prevent it from touching hot 

parts of the oven or hob.

Appliances with electrical supply must 

be earthed.

Do not tamper with the appliance's 

interior. If necessary, call our Technical 

Assistance Service.

Before installing

This appliance is class 3 type, 

according to the EN 30-1-1 regulation 

for gas appliances: built-in appliance.

These individual appliances can be 

combined with other identical 

appliances and/or with conventional 

hobs of the same make, using the joint 

accessory.

See the catalogue for details.

The units next to the appliance must be 

made of non-flammable materials. The 

laminated covering and glue for 

adhering it must be heat resistant.

This appliance cannot be installed 

above fridges, washing machines, 

dishwashers or similar.

An oven must have a power cooling 

fan to install a hob above it.

Check the oven's dimensions in its 

installation manual.

If an extractor fan is installed, you must 

follow the installation manual's 

instructions, always keeping a 

minimum distance of 650 mm to the 

hob.

Preparation of kitchen unit 

(fig. 1-2)

Make an appropriate size cut in the 

work surface.

If the hob is electric or mixed (gas and 

electricity) and there is no oven below, 

place a non-flammable separator (e.g. 

metal or plywood) 10 mm from the 

bottom of the hob. This will prevent 

access to the base of the hob.

If the hob is gas, it is recommendable 

to place the separator at the same 

distance.

On wood work surfaces, varnish the 

cutting surfaces with a special glue. 

This protects them from moisture 

which could collect under the work 

surface.

Installation of appliance

Note:

Wear protective gloves to fit the 

hob.

The clips and the adhesive seal 

(underside of the hob) are factory-

fitted: do not under any circumstances 

remove them. The seal ensures that 

the entire work surface will be 

watertight, and prevents water 

seepage.

In order to fit the appliance into the 

kitchen unit, first place the hob in the 

correct position then loosen each of 

the clips so that they all turn freely (it is 

not necessary to completely undo 

them).

Insert and centre the hob.

Press the sides of the hob until it is 

supported around its entire perimeter.

Turn the clips and tighten them fully. 

Fig. 3

Removal of hob

Turn off the appliance's electricity and 

gas supply.

Unscrew the clips and proceed in the 

reverse order to installation.

Gas connection (fig. 4)

The end of the inlet connection point of 

the gas hob has a 1/2” (20.955 mm) 

thread that allows for:

- fixed connection.

- connection using a flexible metal pipe 

(L min. 1 m - max. 3 m). In this case, it 

is necessary to insert the accessory 

(427950) and the watertight seal 

(034308) supplied between the 

manifold outlet and the gas supply. 

Fig. 4a.

In this case, you must prevent the pipe 

from coming into contact with moving 

parts of the kitchen unit being inserted 

(for example, a drawer) and prevent 

access to any spaces which might 

become obstructed.

If you need to connect the gas supply 

horizontally, our Technical Assistance 

Service can supply you with an L-tube 

(code 173018) and a seal (code 

034308). Fig. 4b.

Warning! If any connection is handled, 

check the seal.

Danger of leaks.

The manufacturer is not liable for any 

connection leaking, after being 

handled.

Electric connection (fig. 5)

Check that the voltage and power of 

the appliance are compatible with the 

electrical installation.

The hobs are supplied with a power 

cable with or without a wall socket 

plug.

Provide an omnipolar cut-off switch 

with a minimum contact separation of 3 

mm (except for plug connections, if the 

user has access to it).

Appliances with plugs must only be 

connected to sockets that have earth 

wires correctly installed.

This appliance is type “Y”: the supply 

cable can only be changed by the 

Technical Assistance Service and not 

the user. The cable type and minimum 

cross-section must be respected.

Changing the gas type

If the country's regulations allow, this 

appliance can be adapted to other 

types of gas (see specifications plate). 

The components required for this are 

in the transformation kit supplied 

(depending on the model) available 

from our Technical Assistance Service. 

The following steps should be taken:

A) Changing the nozzles of the rapid, 

semi-rapid and auxiliary burners on 

the hob (fig. 6):

- Remove the pan supports, burner 

covers and diffusers.

- Change the nozzles using the 

spanner provided by our Technical 

Assistance Service (code 424699), 

taking special care to ensure that the 

nozzle does not fall when it is removed 

from the burner or when fitted.

Ensure that it is completely tightened in 

order to guarantee the seal. Primary air 

adjustment is not necessary with these 

burners.

B) Changing the nozzles for double-

flame burners (fig. 7):

The glass panel and frame are fixed to 

the rest of the hob using a clip 

mounting system. The following steps 

must be taken to remove the glass 

panel and frame:

- Remove all the burner covers and pan 

supports. Fig. 7a.

- Release the front clip fixing the 

appliance to the kitchen unit by 

removing the screw. Fig. 7b.

- Loosen the screws on the burners, 

fig. 7c-7d, and remove the control 

knobs from their respective housings.

Use the disassembly lever 483196 

available from our Technical 

Assistance Service. To release the 

front clips, apply the lever in the area 

shown in figures 8 according to the 

hob model.

Never use the lever on glass edges 

which have no trim or frame!

- To release the rear clips, carefully 

raise the entire glass panel and frame, 

as in fig. 8a.
