Whirlpool AKT 680 Manuel D’Utilisation

If the appliance is intended to operate with a different gas from the gas type stated on the rating plate and information label 
on the top of the hob, change the injectors.
Remove the information label and keep it with the instructions booklet.
Use pressure regulators suitable for the gas pressure indicated in the Instruction.

The gas nozzles must be changed by After Sales Service or a qualified technician.

•

Nozzles not supplied with the appliance must be ordered from After Sales Service.

Adjust the minimum setting of the taps.

The room in which the appliance is installed must have an air supply to current B.S. 5440 - Part 2 standards.
All rooms require a permanent vent in addition to the openable window.
If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room B.S. 5440 - Part 2 should be consulted to determine the air vent 
requirements.
If the appliance is installed in a cellar or basement, it is advisable to provide an air vent of 65 cm, irrespective of the room 
volume.

The law requires that all gas appliances are installed by competent persons in accordance with the current gas safety 
regulations. Failure to install appliances correctly may lead to prosecution.
It is in your own interest, and that of safety, to ensure that the law is complied with. The hob should be installed in 
accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations, the Building Regulations issued by the Department 
of the Environment and the Building Standard (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations, issued by the Scottish 
Development Department.
In the G.B., CORGI registered installers work to safe standards of practice.

Position the hob in the worktop opening made respecting the dimensions indicated in the Instruction.
NOTE: the power supply cable must be long enough to permit its upward extraction.
To secure the hob, use the brackets (A) provided with it. Fit the brackets into the relevant bores shown by the arrow and 
fasten them by means of their screws in accordance with the thickness of the worktop (see the following figures).

To ensure that the minimum setting is correctly adjusted, remove the knob and proceed 
as follows:
•

tighten screw to reduce the flame height (-);

•

loosen screw to increase the flame height (+).

The adjustment must be performed with the tap in minimum gas setting position (small
