Positioning the Cooktop
Important: this unit may be installed and used only in
permanently ventilated rooms in accordance with British
Standard Codes Of Practice:B.S. 6172 / B.S. 5440, Par.2 and
B.S.6891CurrentEditions.Thefollowingrequirementsmustbe
observed:
a) Theroommustbefittedwithaventilationsystemwhichvents

be done by means of a hood or electric ventilator that turns

b) Theroom must also allowforthe influx of the air needed for
propercombustion.Theflowofairforcombustionpurposes
must not be less than 2 m³/h per kW of installed capacity.
The supply of said air can be effected by means of direct
influx from the outside through a duct with a inner cross
section of at least 100 cm² which must not be able to be
accidentally blocked.Those appliances which are not fitted
with a safety device to prevent the flame from accidentally
going out must have a ventilation opening twice the size
otherwise required, i.e. a minimum of 200 cm² (Fig. A).

c) Intensiveand prolonged use of the appliance may necessi-
tate supplemental ventilation, e.g. opening a window or

d) Liquidified petroleum gases are heavier than air and, as a
result, settle downwards. Rooms in which LPG tanks are
installedmustbefittedwithventilationopeningstotheoutside
in order to allow the gas to escape in the event of a leak.
Therefore, LPG tanks, whether empty or partially full, must
not be installed or stored in rooms or spaces below ground

Installation of Built-in Cooktops
Theappliancecanbe installed nexttofurnitureunits which
are no taller than the top of the cooker hob. The wall in
direct contact with the back panel of the cooker must be
made of non-flammable material. During operation the
back panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
50°C above room temperature.Forproperinstallationofthe
cooktop, the following guidlines mustbefollowed:
a) If the cabinet(s) located next to the cooktop are higher than
the cooktop itself, the cabinet(s) must be installed at least
110 mm from the edge cooktop;
b) Hoodsmustbeinstalledinaccordancewiththe instructions
containedintheinstallationmanualforthehoodsthemselves,
and no less than 650 mm from the cooktop;
c) In the case of the 600 mm cooker hoods, besides following
the recommendations in point b), the cabinets should be
positioned next to the hood at a height of at least 540 mm
from the top since this will make it possible to install the lid
andmoveitcorrectly.Thecabinetshouldalwaysbeinstalled
