b. Gather Necessary Tools:

 

• You'll need a measuring tape, screwdriver, wrench, level, and sealant suitable for gas appliances.

b. Ventilation:

 

• Ensure the kitchen is well-ventilated. Adequate ventilation is necessary to prevent gas accumulation and provide a safe cooking environment.

 

3. Installing the Hob

 

a. Fit the Hob:

 

• Carefully lower the hob into the prepared cut-out in the countertop. Ensure it sits flush with the surface and is level.

• Depending on your hob model, use the provided brackets or screws to secure the hob to the countertop. Ensure it is firmly in place to prevent movement.

 

c. Gas Connection:

 

• Connect the hob to the gas supply using a suitable gas hose or pipe. Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent leaks. Use gas tape or sealant where necessary.
• Conduct a leak test by applying a soapy water solution to the connections and checking for bubbles, indicating a leak.

 

d. Electrical Connection (if applicable):

 

• If your hob has an electric ignition, connect it to a power source following the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the power is off during this step to avoid electric shock.

 

4. Post-Installation Checks

 

a. Burner Functionality:

 

• Test each burner to ensure they ignite correctly and the flame is even and blue. Adjust the flame if necessary.

 

b. Flame Failure Device:
