for future reference. If the appliance is sold, given
away or moved, please make sure the booklet is
also passed on to the new owners so that they may
benefit from the advice contained within it.
! Please read this instruction booklet carefully: it
contains important information on installation,
operation and safety.
Positioning
! Do not let children play with the packaging
material;
it should be disposed of in accordance with local
separated waste collection standards ( see
Precautions and tips ).
! The appliance must be installed by a qualified
professional in compliance with the instructions
provided. Incorrect installation may damage
property or cause harm to people or animals.
! The appliance may only be installed in
permanently-ventilated rooms, in accordance with
current national regulations and subsequent
amendments. The following requirements must be
observed:
• The room must be fitted with an air extraction
system which expels any combustion fumes
produced. This may consist of a cooker hood or
an electric fan which starts automatically every
time the appliance is switched on.
In a chimney stack or branched flue.

•
The room must also allow
for proper air circulation, as air
is needed for combustion to
occur normally. The flow of air
must not be less than 2 m
per kW of installed power.
The air circulation system may
take air directly from the
outside environment by means
of a pipe with an inner cross
section of at least 100 cm
the opening must not be
vulnerable to any type of
blockages.
The system can also provide the air needed for
combustion indirectly, i.e. from adjacent rooms
fitted with air circulation ducts as described
above. However, these rooms must not be shared
living rooms, bedrooms or rooms presenting a fire
hazard.
• Liquid petroleum gas sinks to the floor as it is
heavier than air. Therefore, rooms containing LPG
cylinders must also be equipped with vents in
order to allow gas to escape in the event of a
leak. As a result LPG cylinders, whether partially
or completely full, must not be installed or stored
in rooms or storage areas which are below ground
level (cellars, etc.). Only the cylinder currently
being used should be kept in the room. It must
not be exposed to direct heat sources (ovens,
fireplaces, stoves, etc.) which could raise the
temperature of the cylinder above 50°C.
Built-in appliance
Gas and mixed hobs are manufactured with type X
degree protection against overheating; it is therefore
possible to install the appliance next to kitchen
cabinets which are no taller than the worktop. The
following precautions must be taken when installing
the hob:
600mm min.
minimum distance of 700 mm from the hob.
• Place the wall cabinets adjacent to the hood at a
minimum height of 540 mm from the hob ( see
Figure ).
If the hob is installed beneath a wall cabinet, the
latter must be situated at a minimum of 700 mm
above the hob ( see Figure ).

installed in kitchen cabinets operate correctly, the
minimum distances shown in Fig. 1 should be
observed. All adjacent surfaces and the back panel
should also be able to withstand an overheating
temperature of 65°C.

Kitchen cabinets which are
adjacent to the appliance and
taller than the top of the hob
must be at least 50 mm from
the edge of the hob.
