A minimum depth of 50mm from the top of the w o rk to p surface must be provided for the appliance. If the base of the hotplate can be touched, a protecting shield must be fitted. This shield must be at least 10mm from the lowest part of the hotplate and must be capable of withstanding the appliance temperatures. Minimum thickness of benchtop is 30 mm. See Fig. 2. Installation of cooktop into the kitchen bench 2 30 mm minimum Installation procedure: Side clearances: If the distance measured from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical surface is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected in accordance with clauses 5.12.1.1 & 5.12.1.2 of AS 5601. 1. For cutout dimensions and clearances refer Fig.1-1a 2. a) If the clamps and the selfadhesive seal (lower edge of the hob) are already fitted (depending on the model), do not under any circumstance remove them. The seal keeps the entire work surface watertight and prevents spilage from leaking into cupboards underneath. Slightly losen the retaining screws of the clamps positioned at the bottom of the cooktop. b) If the clamps and the selfadhesive seal have not been fitted in the factory, remove the pan support and the gas burner covers from your cooking hob and turn it upside down. Now fit the selfadhesive seal supplied with the appliance onto the lower edge of the hob. Take the clamps and screw them into the lower point designed for this purpose. See Fig. 3. 33 3. Place the hotplate on top of the bench cut-out and press down firmly on all edges at the same time to ensure that the hob is resting on its entire perimeter. 4 . Once the hob is fitted you should turn the clips and tighten the screw as shown in Fig. 4. 4 Installation continued Connection Electrical: An electrical 10 amp socket needs to be within 1 m of the hotplate to allow electrical connection. The socket must remain accessible after installation of the appliance. Important note: This appliance is connected to the mains (240 VAC) by means of the connecting lead which must be fixed to the kitchen unit to prevent it from coming into contact with hot parts of the hob (or an oven installed underneath) and remain accessible after installation of the cooktop. When making this connection make sure that the lead cannot come into contact with hot parts of the hob. Important: This appliance must be earthed. When connecting the cooktop ensure that the earth wire is connected first and that all wires are connected to the correct terminals. Gas: During the planning stage, consider the position of supply connections. The hob must be connected to the gas supply with upstream connection of an isolation valve in accordance with the respectively valid regulations. We recommend that the isolation valve be fitted prior to the cooktop to enable isolation of cooktop from gas supply. The valve must be easily accessible at all times. To find out the factory set gas type, see bottom of cooktop next to gas connection. Remove plastic cap from gas supply line prior to installation. Fit regulator (N.G.) or a test point (Universal LPG) directly to the R1/2" connection as per Fig. 5. and Fig. 6. Direction of gas flow is indicated on the rear of the regulator. F o r p o si t i o n o f t h e i n l e t co n n e ct i o n re f e r F i g . 1 -1 a . Use pipe compound or thread sealant, properly theaded pipes and careful assembly procedure so that there is no cross threading, etc., which might cause damage or leakage. Make sure that all connections peformed are free of leakage. In either of the cases, do not move or twist the L-tube from its factory-set position. If for some reason, the L-tube should be twisted, it is necessary to make sure that this area is properly sealed. Make sure that a l l co n n e ct i o n s p e rf o rme d a re f re e o f l e a ka g e . The manufacture does not accept any liability for leakage on connections performed by the installer or if the L-tube is moved or twisted. Natural gas connection Pressure test point R 1/2 ” Pressure test point. 5 R 1/2 ” 6 Universal LPG connection There are two ways to carry out the connection to the main gas line: A. The hotplate can be connected with rigid pipe as specified in AS5601 table 3.1. B. Flexible Hose: If installing with a hose assembly, install with a hose assembly that complies with AS/NZS 1869 (AGA Approved), 10mm ID, class Bor D, no more than 1,2m long and in accordance with AS5601. Ensure that the hose does not contact the hot surfaces of the hotplate, oven, dishwasher or any other appliance that may be installed underneath or next to the hotplate. The hose should not be subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be inspected along its entire length with the cooktop in the installed position. Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used and all connections tested for gas leaks. The supply connection point shall be accessible with the appliance installed. WARNING: Ensure that the hose assembly is restrained ...
