INSTALLATION
This appliance is designed for use with LPG ONLY. When this
appliance is to be permanently installed the installation should
only be carried out by a qualied gas tter who is registered with
LPGSASA and that such installations should comply with the
requirements of SANS 10087-1 or SANS 827 as applicable.
• Good room ventilation is vital for the efcient performance
of the appliance and for the safety of the occupants in the
room in which the appliance is installed.
• Cooking appliances generate considerable heat. The layout
and materials of the surrounding cabinets should take
account of these characteristics.
• Surfaces of cabinets immediately adjacent to the hob should
be able to withstand temperature of up to 100°C without
delaminating or discolouring.
• Make sure that the unit is well levelled in relation to the
ground. Improper levelling can affect the function of the
appliance.
• Ensure no items which can catch alight easily (eg. curtains)
are near the gas hob.
• Allow an unrestricted air space of at least 150mm at the
sides and 750mm above the hob.

sealing strip must be attached to the underneath of the lip of the
hob. This prevents dirt and moisture from the counter top seeping
under the hob.

PERMANENT INSTALLATION
The Gas Fitter must provide you with a written certicate after com-
pletion of the work. Failure to comply with the above will render
the warranty invalid. Before the installer hands over the installed
appliance be sure that you fully understand:
1. The position of the isolation or shut-off valve in the gas supply
line to the hob.
2. The requirements for safe operation of the hob.
GAS:
(1) This appliance is designed for use only with LP gas
(2) Important:
Check for any leakage in your cylinder or connecting hose by
using soapy water around all connections. If a exible hose is
being used, it should be of minimum length to avoid bending.
Periodic checks are recommended for your own safety.
(3) Replace a Jet:
Remove the burner cap as well as the aluminium cap. Use a suit-
able tool to replace the jet (as indicated in picture below).

LEAK TEST
The leak test must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, free
from any ames or other sources of ignition.
• With the cylinder connected
to the hob, open the cylinder
valve.
• Brush the connections (hob
to cylinder) with a solution of
equal parts soap and water
(make sure it’s foamy).
• A stream of bubbles forming
indicates a gas leak. (See
picture on left)
• If bubbles appear, turn the
cylinder valve OFF (clockwise)
and disconnect the hob from
the gas cylinder.
• Tighten the connection and
retry the leak test.
• If you are unsure or if you
cannot tighten the connection,
place the cylinder outside in a
cool, well-ventilated area and
contact Alva on 086 100 ALVA
(2582).
• A leak between the hob and
cylinder can lead to a high
pressure re, which is very
dangerous and can result in
extensive injury or even death.

FITTING AND CHANGING THE GAS CYLINDER
1. Before connecting the appliance to a gas cylinder,
always ensure that the rubber seal on the Regulator is in
position and in good condition, and blow out any dust from
the cylinder opening to prevent possible blockage of the jet.
2. Ensure that the gas cylinder is tted or changed in a
well-ventilated location, preferably outdoors, away from any
source of ignition, such as naked ames and away from
other people.
