Electrical Installations.
Provision for ventilation
Detailed recommendations are contained in the
following British Standards Codes Of Practice:
B.S. 6172/B.S. 5440, Par. 2 and B.S. 6891
Current Editions.
The hob should not be installed in a bed sitting
room with a volume of less than 20 m³. If it is
installed in a room of volume less than 5 m³ an air
vent of effective area of 100 cm² is required. If it is
installed in a room of volume between 5 m³ and 10
m³ an air vent of effective area of 50 cm² is
required, while if the volume exceeds 11 m³ no air
vent is required.
However, if the room has a door which opens
directly to the outside no air vent is required even if
the volume is between 5 m³ and 11 m³.
If there are other fuel burning appliances in the
same room, B.S. 5440 Part 2 Current Edition,
should be consulted to determine the requisite air
vent requirements.
For appliances installed in the Republic of Ireland
please refer to the NSAI- Domestic Gas Installation
I.S. 813 Current Editions Table Four.
Location
The hob may be located in a kitchen, a kitchen/
diner or bed sitting room (with a volume greater
than 20 m³), but not in a bathroom or shower room.
The minimum distance combustible material can be
fitted above the hob in line with the edges of the
hob is 400 mm. If it is fitted below 400 mm a space
of 50 mm must be allowed from the edges of the
hob.
For appliances installed in the Republic of Ireland
please refer to NSAI- Domestic Gas Installation I.S

GAS CONNECTION
WARNING! Any gas installation must
be carried out by a GAS SAFE
REGISTER installer.
Please refer to the technical
instructions on how to adjust the hob
to the gas specifications on Malta.
This appliance is certified for Malta.
Make sure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily
accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
The manufacturer will not accept liability, should the
above instructions or any of the other safety
instructions incorporated in this instruction booklet
be ignored.
On the end of the shaft, which includes the R 1/2"
threaded elbow, adjustment is fixed so that the
washer is fitted between the components as shown
in the diagram. Screw the parts together without
using excessive force.
A B C
A. End of shaft with nut
B. Washer supplied with the appliance
C. Elbow supplied with the appliance
Connection to the gas supply should be with either
rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel or copper.
The connection should be suitable for connecting
to R 1/2 (1/2 BSP male thread).
When the final connection has been made, it is
essential that a thorough leak test is carried out on
the hob and installation.
Make sure that the main connection pipe does not
exert any strain on the hob.
If you use flexible metal pipes make sure that they
agree to ISO 10380 and ISO 10807 standards. Be
careful they do not come in touch with mobile parts
or they are not squeezed. Also be careful when the
hob is put together with an oven.
CAUTION! It is important to install the
elbow correctly, with the shoulder on
the end of the thread, fitted to the hob
connecting pipe.
CAUTION! Failure to ensure the
correct assembly will cause leakage of
gas.
CAUTION! Make sure that the gas
supply pressure of the appliance
obeys the recommended values.
Rigid connection:
Carry out connection by using metal rigid pipes
(copper with mechanical end).
