User manual SMEG PX140A

[. . . ] INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USER: these provide recommendations for use, a description of the controls and the correct procedures for cleaning and maintaining the appliance. 3 Precautions for Safety and Use 1. Precautions for safety and use THIS MANUAL IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE APPLIANCE. TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT AND KEEP IT TO HAND THROUGHOUT THE HOB'S LIFE CYCLE. USERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THIS MANUAL AND ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS IT CONTAINS BEFORE USING THE HOB. [. . . ] However, in no case shall this clearance to any surface be less than 450 mm. Side clearances – (Measurements B & C) Where B, measured from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical combustible surface, is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected in accordance with Clause 5. 12. 1. 2 to a height C of not less than 150 mm above the hob for the full dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area. Where the cooking appliance is fitted with a ‘splashback’, protection of the rear wall is not required. Additional requirements for Freestanding and Elevated Cooking Appliaces – (Measurements D & E) Where D, the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to a horizontal combustible surface is less than 200 mm, then E shall be 10 mm or more, or the horizontal surface shall be above the trivet. Requirement 3 does not apply to a freestanding or elevated cooking appliance which is designed to prevent flames or the cooking vessels from extending beyond the periphery of the appliance. A separate test point fitting must be installed between the piping & the appliance for the pressure to be checked to ensure it is operating at 2. 75kPa. Installation with the flexible hose must be carried out so that the length of the piping does not exceed 2 metres fully extended; make sure that the hoses do not come into contact with moving parts and that they are not crushed in any way. 6. 1 Connection to liquid gas Use a pressure regulator and make the connection on the gas cylinder following the guidelines established by the regulations in force. Make sure that the feed pressure complies with the values indicated in the table at point “9. 2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”. 6. 2 Room ventilation Caution – This hob may only be installed and operated in rooms permanently ventilated in accordance with current regulations. For proper operation of a gas appliance it is essential for the air necessary for combustion of the gas to be able to flow naturally into the room. Air must flow directly into the room through openings in its outside walls. This (these) opening (s) must have a free passage cross-section of at least 100 cm2, or 200 cm2 for appliances not equipped with gas safety device. These openings must be constructed so that they cannot be obstructed indoors or outdoors, and should preferably be close to the floor on the side opposite to the combustion gas discharge point. If it is not possible to make the openings in the room where the cooker is installed, the necessary air may be taken from an adjoining room, proveded it is not a bedroom or a room with fire risk. 6. 3 Combustion gas discharge Combustion gases may be discharged by means of hoods connected to a flue with reliable natural draught, or a fan extraction system. An effective extraction system requires careful design by an authorised specialist, and must comply with the regulation distances and positions. After installation, the engineer must issue a certificate of compliance. 12 Instructions for the Installer 7. Adapting to different types of gas The operations described below must be carried out with the appliance not connected to the gas supply. The appliance is tested with G20 (2H) natural gas at the pressure of 20 mbar. If it is to be used with other types of gas, the burner nozzles have to be changed and the primary air flow adjusted. To replace the nozzles and adjust the burners, the hob skin has to be removed. Proceed as described below. 7. 1 Removing the hob skin Remove all the burner components in the numerical order shown below: • • Pull off all the knobs. 1 • Remove the hob skin fixing screws. 2 • After removing all the components described above, lift off the hob skin. Release all snap connections simultaneously (the hob is connected to the casing underneath in 5 points). [. . . ] Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. 10. 2 Cleaning the components Never clean the knobs with aggressive products containing alcohol or steel or glass cleaners, since they might cause permanent damage. The components described below must never be washed in a dishwasher. 10. 2. 1 The knobs The knobs must be cleaned with a soft cloth dipped in warm water and dried thoroughly. They can easily be lifted off. 10. 2. 2 The pan stands Remove the pan stands and wash them in warm water with a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all deposits. Replace them on the hob following the instructions provided in point “7. 1 Fitting the Pan Stands”. [. . . ]
