IMPORTANT INSTALLATION
SPECIFICATIONS
The installer should note that the appliance
that side walls should be no higher than the
cooktop itself. Furthermore, the rear wall, the
surfaces surrounding and adjacent to the
appliance must be able to withstand an
temperature of 90 °C.
The adhesive used to stick the plastic laminate
to the cabinet must be able to withstand a
temperature of not less than 150 °C otherwise
the laminate could come unstuck.
The appliance must be installed in compliance
with the provisions in force.
This appliance is not connected to a device
able to dispose of the combustion fumes. It
must therefore be connected in compliance
with the above mentioned installation
standards. Particular care should be paid to
the following provisions governing ventilation
and aeration.
5) ROOM VENTILATION
It is essential to ensure that the room in which the
appliance is installed is permanently ventilated in
order to allow the appliance itself to operate
correctly. the necessary amount of air is that
required for regular gas combustion and
ventilation of the relative room, the volume of
which must not be less than 20 m3. Air must
naturally flow through permanent openings in the
walls of the room in question. These openings
must vent the fumes outdoors and their section
must be at least 100 cm2(see fig. 3). Construction
of the openings must ensure that the openings
themselves may never be blocked. Indirect
ventilation by air drawn from an adjacent room is
also permitted, in strict compliance with the
provisions in force.
6) LOCATION AND AERATION
Gas cooking appliances must always dispose of
their combustion fumes through hoods. These
must be connected to flues, chimneys or straight
outside. If it is not possible to install a hood, an
electric fan can be installed on a window or on a
wall facing outside (see fig. 4). This must be
activated at the same time as the appliance (see
fig. 5), so long as the specifications in the
provisions in force are strictly complied with.
