than 20m3. LPG models shall not be installed in a room or internal space below ground level,
e.g. in a basement.
Provision for ventilation
•The room containing the cooker should have an air supply. The room must have an opening
window or equivalent; some rooms may also require a permanent vent. If the room has a
volume between 5 and 10m3, it will require an air vent of 50cm2effective area unless it has a
door which opens directly. If the room has a volume of less than 5m3, it will require an air
vent of 100cm2effective area (Fig. 1). If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same
room, the same room should be consulted to determine air vent requirements.
•NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in
the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep
natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (Fig. 2). In particular,
when using the grill or more than one hotplate burner, open a window if a mechanical
ventilation device is not operating (Fig. 3).
(*) Air inlet minimum section: 100 cm2
Unpacking the appliance:
•Remove all packaging before use and check to make sure that the appliance is In perfect
condition. If you have any doubts do not use the appliance and call your supplier. Some parts
on the appliance are protected by a plastic film. This protective film must be removed before
the appliance is used. We recommend carefully slitting the plastic film along the edges with a
sharp knife or pin. The packaging materials should carefully discarded and not left within
easy reach of children as they are a potential safety hazard.
Installing and fixing the hob:
•Your hob can be fitted to any worktop with a thickness of 40 to 50 mm, accordance with no
overhanging surface or cooker hood should be closer to the hotplate than 750 mm. Fix in
position in Fig. 4. If fitting a 600 mm bridging unit above the 700 mm hob unit, the sides of
adjacent cabinets may be lower than 760 mm down to 334 mm provided they are resistant
to heat and steam. The hob has a special seal which prevents liquid from entering the
cabinet. Follow these instructions in order to correctly apply this seal:
•Detach the seals from their backing, that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal
itself. Turn over the hob and correctly position seal *E* (Fig. 5) under the edge of the hob
itself, so that the outer part of the seal itself perfectly matches the outer edge of the hob.
The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping. Evenly and securely fix the seal
to the hob, pressing it firmly in place.
