Do not lift the oven by the door handle, but hold it at the sides.
Do not lift the oven by the gas connection.
Make sure that the appliance has not been damaged during transport.
Oven dimensions and kitchen unit dimensions are shown in the opposite
figure.
Kitchen units in contact with the oven must be heat resistant:
min. 75°C above ambient temperature during periods of operation.
in the figure.
secure the oven to the kitchen unit with the screws.
Note: to allow for proper ventilation, we recommend that you leave an
opening of at least 560 x 30 mm or an equivalent area in the lower section
of the housing.
Also provide for at least 5 mm clearance between the top of the oven and
the lower edge of the worktop: this gap must never be closed by strips
or unit reinforcing pieces.
When the oven is installed, make sure that the sides do not touch the front
edges of the unit or the adjacent drawers and doors.
House the oven in the unit cavity, lifting it at the sides and making sure
that the supply cable is not trapped.

INSTALLATION
Installation location
In order for the gas unit to work properly it is essential that the air necessary for burning
the gas flows into the area naturally.
The installer must follow the safety norms for the country of installation.
The flow of air into the area must come directly through openings made in the exterior
walls.
These openings must have a free passage section of at least 100 cm² (one or more
openings can be made).
Products of combustion must be exhausted through a hood connected to a fume flue
or directly outside.
In the event that it is not possible to install the hood, it is necessary to use an electric
ventilation fan installed in the outside wall or window of the area so long as there is
an opening for air to enter the area in conformity with current law.
This electric ventilation fan must have a flow capacity sufficient to guarantee that
3 to 5 times the volume of air in the room is exchanged every hour.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Attention: do not connect to the power supply before you have finished connecting
the oven and cooktop.
Make sure that installation and hook-up are performed by a qualified technician
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and in compliance with local
regulations. The installer is responsible for the correct electrical connection and for
the observance of the safety rules.
The oven must be connected to the electricity supply by means of an all-pole disconnect
switch with minimum contact gap of 3 mm.
The appliance must be earthed by law.
Do not use multiple sockets or extensions.
After the oven has been installed, the electrical components must be inaccessible.
Make sure that the voltage stated on the appliance rating plate is the same as the
voltage in your home. The rating plate is on the lower front edge of the oven (visible
with the door open).
If the power supply cable needs replacing, make sure that it is replaced with a cable
similar to the one provided by the Manufacturer (H05 RR-F type) and that installation
is performed by the Service Center or a qualified technician.
The appliance is equipped with the cable for the electrical connection without plug.

The connection must be made as follows:
The wire coloured Green and Yellow must be connected to the
terminal marked ‘E’ or the earth symbol Aor coloured green or green and yellow.
The wire coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal marked
‘N’ or coloured blue or black.
The wire coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal marked ‘L’ or coloured
brown or red.
NOTE: The terminals marked ‘SUPPLY’ are for the mains supply
wires and the terminations marked ‘LOAD’ are for the appliance
wires. The electrical outlet is to be positioned in an easily
accessible position adjacent to the appliance. In the event that it is
necessary to replace the mains lead, the replacement must conform
to the specification listed in the Technical Data ensuring the correct
colour code connection and that all screws are tightened sufficiently.

CONNECTION TO THE GAS SUPPLY
The supply system must be compliant with the current standards in the country of
use. The type of gas for which the oven has been regulated is indicated on the serial
number plate located on one o f the side edges of the cavity (visible with the door
open) and on the packaging. Before carrying out the connection, the oven must be
adapted to the type of gas that will be used.
L ink the male cylindrical threaded pipe - fitting ½"G, which is placed on the back
side of the appliance to the supply, by using a non - flexible metallic pipe and pipe -
fittings which are compliant with the current standards .
O the r wise you can use a flexible metallic pipe entirely fixed to the wall and pipe -
fittings which are compliant with the current standards ; the length of the pipe can not
be over 2000 mm , in compliance with the current standards.
C heck that the pi pe cannot come in contact with movable parts that could damage it.
Place the seal (fig. 1) between the pipe - fitting and the pipe. T he seal is provided
with the appliance.
I mportant : to conenct the appliance to a LPG supply, place a pressure regulator
which is compliant with the current standards between the pipe and the gas tank.
Attention: when finished, check that there are no gas leaks.
Use soap and water or special liquids to make sure that there are no gas leaks.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAMES WHEN SEARCHING FOR GAS LEAKS.
Warning: the use of a rubber flexible hose fastened with hose clamps is prohibited
