If an electric fan is used for extracting the combustion
products, the ventilation aperture must be increased in relation
to its maximum performance. The electric fan should have a
sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly exchange of air
equal to 3-5 times the volume of the kitchen. Prolonged,
intensive use of the appliance may require extra ventilation,
e.g. an open window or a more efficient ventilation system
by increasing the extraction power of the electric fan if
installed. Liquid petroleum gas descends towards the floor
as it is heavier than air. Apertures in the outside walls in
rooms containing LPG cylinders should therefore be at floor
level, in order to allow any gas from leaks to be expelled. Do
not store LPG cylinders (even when empty) in basements/
rooms below ground level; it is advisable to keep only the
cylinder in use in the room at any one time and connected
far from heat sources which could raise its temperature to
above 50°C.
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.8), 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).

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.9) 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).
• On completing the operation, replace the old rating label
with the one showing the new type of gas; the sticker is
available from our Service Centres.
Adjusting the low flame
• Put the tap to the low flame position (the burner should be
lit);
• Remove the tap knob (fig.10) and turn the adjusting screw,
situated to the side of the tap stem, 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.
• Refit the tap knobs

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
THE APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
The appliance is designed to work with alternating current at
the supply voltage and frequency indicated on the rating plate
(situated on the rear part of the appliance and on the last
page of the instruction booklet) or at the end of the instruction
booklet. Make sure that the local supply voltage corresponds
to the voltage indicated on the rating plate.
(only for mod.KP 59)
ATTENTION: This appliance has a maximum power
exeeding 3kW; it is therefore necessary for it to be
connected to a socket able to support a rated current
higher than 13A (the appliance rated current is 15A).
Connecting the supply cable to the mains electricity
supply A 13. A plug in compliance whit BS 1362 is not
suitable.
To connect directly to the mains supply, a double-pole switch
with a contact separation of at least 3 mm suitable for the
load and complying with current standards and regulations,
