Leak-testing and flame-testing the cooker

After installing the freestanding cooker and connecting the gas supply:

  1. Using a suitable leak detection fluid solution, check each gas connection one at a time by brushing the solution over the connection.
    The presence of bubbles will indicate a leak. If there is a leak, tighten the fitting and then recheck for leaks.

    Important-Icon.png

    Do not use a naked flame to test for leaks.

  2. Adjust the test point pressure or supply pressure to the value that is appropriate for the gas type.

  3. Test the operation of the appliance:

  • Turn on the appliance gas controls and light each burner individually and in combination. Check for a well-defined blue flame without any yellow tipping. If any abnormality is evident, then check that the burner cap is located properly and the injector nipple is aligned correctly.
  • Check the minimum burner setting by quickly rotating the gas control dial from the maximum to the minimum position. The flame must not go out. If you need to adjust the setting, see ‘Adjusting the minimum burner setting’ following.
  1. If satisfacfory performance cannot be obtained, the installer shall check the installation and notify the local gas supply authority for a gas supply problem, or if it is an appliance problem, our Customer Service Centre should be called to obtain the nearest authorized Service Agent.

Converting to a different gas type

This appliance is suitable for use with Natural gas or LPG (check the “gas type” sticker attached to the appliance). To convert from one gas type to another, you need to replace the injectors, and then adjust the minimum burning setting.

Replacing the injectors

  1. Remove the pan supports and burners from the cooktop.
  2. Using a spanner, remove the injectors (shown in Figs. 15-16-17 following) and replace them with ones according to the gas type (see the ‘Table for the choice of injectors’).
  3. Fix the warning label (supplied with the conversion kit) at the back of the cooker, near the gas inlet connections. This label states that the gas cooktop has been converted for use with LPG/ Natural gas.

Adjusting the minimum burner setting

  1. See ‘Adjusting the minimum burner setting’ for instructions.
Important-Icon.png
  • If you are converting the cooker from Natural gas to LPG,remove the gas pressure regulator before connecting the cooker to the gas supply and replace with the test point adaptor supplied with the conversion kit.
  • If you are converting the cooker from LPG to Natural gas, remove the test point adaptor before connecting the cooker to the gas supply and replace with the gas pressure regulator supplied with the conversion kit.
