Instructions for
the installation technician
All installation, regulation and adaptation to
other types of gas must be carried out by an
authorised installation technician, respecting
all applicable regulations, standards and
the country's electrical and gas supply
companies' specifications.
It is recommended that you call our Technical
Assistance Service for adaptation to other
types of gas. Before you begin, turn off the
appliance's electricity and gas supply.
Before connecting up the appliance to the
installation, first check that it has been adjusted
for the type of gas with which it is to be supplied
(see table I).Our cooking hobs leave the factory
designed to function with the type of gas that is
indicated on the specifications plate.
It is of the utmost importance that the place
in which the appliance is installed has suitable
ventilation in accordance with regulations so
that the combustion gases are piped outside.
Check the dimensions of the cooking hob as
well as the dimensions of the hole to be cut in
the kitchen unit.
The panels located above the work surface,
right next to the cooking hob, must be made of
non-inflammable material. Both the stratified
surfacing and the glue used to secure it should
be heat resistant, to prevent deterioration.
No electrical cables should come into contact
with hot areas.
The power cable must be secured to the
furniture module to prevent it from touching
any hot parts of the oven or the cooking hob.
All appliances containing any electrical
components must be earthed.
Handle the appliance with care during
the entire installation process. Do not hit the
appliance against anything.
IN THE EVENT THAT THIS ADVICE IS NOT
FOLLOWED, THE INSTALLATION TECHNICIAN
WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE
CAUSED, AND THE MANUFACTURER WILL BE
EXEMPT FROM ALL RESPONSIBILITY.
Installing the cooking hob
in the furniture module
The positioning of a hob in a kitchen unit
is Class 3 according to the standard for gas
appliances EN 30-1-1.
Fitting measurements
1 - Minimum distances (mm). Cut an aperture of
the necessary dimensions in the work surface.
Fig. 1.
If no oven is installed under an electrical or
mixed (gas and electric) hob, place a separator
of non-flammable material e.g. plywood or
metal at a distance of 10 mm. from the bottom
of the hob to prevent access to the lower part of
the hob.
If no oven is installed under a gas hob, it is
suggested to place a separator of non-
flammable material e.g. plywood or metal at a
distance of 10 mm. from the bottom of the hob
to prevent access to the lower part of the hob.
In the event that a drawer is located beneath
the appliance, please make sure that the drawer
contains no heat-sensitive or easily combustible
objects, such as spray cans or shoe polish. Use a
heat-resistant utility drawer only.
All gas d < 150
Electrical hob 10 < d < 150
If the cooking hob is to be installed above an
oven, check that the oven is fitted with power
ventilation, and check the dimensions according
to the assembly manual.
Place the cooking hob in the insertion
aperture cut into the furniture module.
2 - The wood fibres that have been used to
make the cooking hob modules tend to swell
quite quickly when they come into contact with
moisture. We therefore recommend that the cut
edges are treated with a special glue to protect
them from steam or any condensation that
might drip down beneath the work surface of
the cooker unit.
Depending on the model, the clips and the
watertight seal (underside of the cooking hob)
may already be fitted; if this is the case, do not
under any circumstance remove them. The seal
ensures that the entire work surface will be
watertight, and prevents water seepage. The
seal is to be placed on the edge of the interior
housing and should protrude approximately
3mm.
If this item has not been fitted in the factory,
remove the pan supports and the gas burners
covers and diffusers from your cooking hob,
and turn it upside down. Now fit the adhesive
seal supplied with the appliance onto the lower
edge of the cooking hob (see Fig. 2a), remove
the staples from the attached accessories bag
and secure them into the lateral orifices that are
provided for this purpose. Fig. 2b or 2c.
3 - Press down all around the edges so that
the cooking hob is supported along its entire
perimeter (Fig. 3).
If you should need to dismantle the
appliance, simply push it upwards from
underneath (with staple type 2b).
If your cooking hob has the type of staple
shown in Fig. 2c, you will have to lever it up
with a screwdriver to dismantle it. Fig. 2d.
4 - On gas hobs, the end of the gas intake
comes with a
1
/
2
" (20,955 mm) thread, Fig. 4.
This thread ensures:
• A rigid connection. A copper pipe, a bolt
and a watertight seal are supplied together with
the cooking hob.
• Connection using a exible metal tube (L
min. 1 m - max. 3 m).ln this case, it is necessary
to install the accessory 9000060077 and
the seal (034308) between the outlet of the
manifold and the gas supply. Fig. 4a. With this
option, you must prevent the pipe from coming
into contact with moving parts of the insertion
unit (for example, a drawer) or access to any
spaces which might become obstructed.
If you need to connect the gas supply
horizontally, our technical services department
can supply you with an adaptor (code 173018)
and a seal (code 034308)
To be able to use this appliance in France, it is
necessary to carry out a direct connection to the
outlet of the manifold with the seal 034308. Fig.
4b. The position of the gas pipe, relative to the
hole in the kitchen unit where it is to be fitted is
shown in Fig. 1b.
Make sure that all the connections that
have been installed are airtight.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility
for leaks or for any connections installed by
the installation technician.
5 - The following must be checked on the
specifications plate: the voltage and the total
power. This appliance must be earthed.
Always make certain that all connections
that have been installed are in accordance
with national legal requirements. Observe all
the requirements of the local electrical supply
company.
In order to meet standard safety regulations,
the installation technician must provide
an omnipolar cut-off switch with a contact
separation of at least 3 mm. This is not
necessary if the connection is made via a plug,
so long as the user has access to it.
All appliances fitted with plugs should only
be connected up to sockets which have been
correctly earthed.
This appliance is type "Y", which means that
the input cable MUST NOT BE CHANGED BY THE
USER, only by the service technician for that
particular make. The section and type of cable
must be observed.
Do not make any adjustments in the interior of
the appliance. If this should be necessary, call
our technical assistance service.
Our cooking hobs are provided with a power
cable with or without a plug.
Types of cables:
Cooking hob: Power cable:
All gas 3 x 0.75 mm
2
Electrical hob 3 x 1.5 mm

6 - To complete the installation, the burner
diffusers and covers must be fitted onto their
corresponding rings. In addition, the pan
supports must also be located in their correct
places.
Fig. 5. Modular hobs may be combined with the
appliance using the joint accessory NEZ34VLA.
Fig. 1a. If a ceramic hob is to be combined with
the appliance, the correct joint accessory to
use is NEZ34VLB; these are available from our
technical service.
Changing gas type
All instalation, regululation and adaptation to
other types of gas must be carried out by an
authorised installation technician, respecting
all applicable regulations, standards and
the country's electrical and gas supply
companies' specifications.
It is recommended that you call our Technical
Assistance Service for adaptation to other
types of gas. Before you begin, turn off the
appliance's electricity and gas supply.
Provided that national laws so permit, this
cooking hob may be adapted to function with
other types of gas. To do so, all the following
steps should be carried out:
A) Change the nozzles of the burners on
the cooking hob.
1 - Remove the pan supports, covers and the
main body of the burner.
2 - Change the burner tips using a 7 mm
socket spanner and make sure that they are
tightened all the way in order to ensure that
they are correctly sealed. Fig. 6.
With these burners the air does not have to
be adjusted.
B) Adjust the burner taps for reduced
consumption.
1 - Turn the taps down to minimum.
2 - Remove the control knobs from the taps.
Fig. 7.
3 - Remove the anti-spillage disc seals.
If your cooking hob is fitted with exterior
plastic disc seals, remove them by inserting a
screwdriver through the discs' central orifice and
levering them out. Fig. 8.
• When you have removed the disc seals
from the orifice the control shaft emerges
from, you will find an interior seal made of
flexible rubber; simply push it with the tip of
the screwdriver to make room for you to work
on the tap adjustment screw, depending on the
model. Do not remove the interior grip.
4 - Adjust the By-pass screw.
• For propane and butane gas, the screw
must be screwed down tight.
• For natural gas, turn the screw (to the
left) until the burner is producing the desired
gas flow, in such a way that when you turn the
burner controls from maximum to minimum,
the flame does not go out, nor is there a flame
back draught created (Fig. 9a or 9b, depending
on the model).
5 - It is important to make sure that all the
seals are in place in order to ensure that, in the
case of spillages on the hob, there are no short
circuits.
6 - Replace the control knobs on the taps.
Do not dismantle the tap shaft (Fig. 10): In
the event of a malfunction, change the whole
tap.
C) Place the sticker indicating that the
appliance's gas supply has been changed
next to the specifications plate.
