Installation instructions

Ventilation requirements (all countries except UK)

Providing adequate ventilation

The installer must refer to the current local regulations.

The room accommodating the gas cooktop must have

adequate natural draught to allow combustion of the gas.

The flow of air must come directly from one or more air vents

made in the outside walls with a free area of at least 100 cm

2

.

The vents must be positioned close to the floor, preferably
on the opposite side to the gas burners of your cooktop
(as shown in Figs. 2a and 2b). The vents must be designed
in such a way that they cannot be obstructed either from
the inside or the outside.

When it is not possible to provide the necessary vents,
the draught may be supplied from an adjacent room,
ventilated in the required manner, provided it is not a
bedroom or an area at risk. In this event, the kitchen door
must be opened to allow the draught to enter the room.

Extracting cooking and gas fumes

Important!

This appliance is not connected to a device extracting the
products of gas combustion. Such a device must be installed
and connected in accordance with the installation rules in force.
Take special care to provide adequate room ventilation as well.

To eliminate cooking and gas fumes, extractor hoods
ducted directly to the outside must be installed (Fig. 2a).

If this is not possible, an electric fan installed in an
external wall or window may be used; the fan should have
a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3 to 5 times
the total volume of the kitchen (Fig. 2b). The fan can only
be installed if the kitchen has suitable vents to allow air to
enter, as described under ‘Providing adequate ventilation’
above.
