It is recommended that you follow the guidelines

below:

Only use the appliance to cook food, avoiding all other

uses;

Check the condition of the appliance after it has been

unpacked;

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply in the

event of malfunction and always before cleaning or

maintenance;

When not in use, disconnect the appliance from the

power supply and turn off the gas valve (if present);

The following instructions are intended for the installer so that

the installation and maintenance procedures may be followed in

the most professional and expert manner possible. Important:

Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply before

performing any maintenance or regulation upkeep work.

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. 6891 Current Editions. The following requirements must be

observed:

a) The room must be fitted with a ventilation system which vents

smoke and gases from combustion to the outside. This must

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

on automatically each time the hood is operated.

In a chimney stack or branched flue.

(exclusively for cooking appliances)

b) The room must also allow for the influx of the air needed for

proper combustion. The flow of air for combustion purposes

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).

Otherwise, the room can be vented indirectly through adjacent

rooms fitted with ventilation ducts to the outside as described

above, as long as the adjacent rooms are not shared areas,

bedrooms or present the risk of fire (Fig. B).

c) Intensive and prolonged use of the appliance may necessi-

tate supplemental ventilation, e.g. opening a window or

increasing the power of the air intake system (if present).

d) Liquidified petroleum gases are heavier than air and, as a

result, settle downwards. Rooms in which LPG tanks are

installed must be fitted with ventilation openings to the outside

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

level (cellars, ect.). It is also a good idea to keep only the tank

currently being used in the room, making sure that it is not

near sources of heat (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc.) that

could raise the internal temperature of the tank above 50°C.

Installation of Built-in Cooktops

The appliance can be installed next to furniture units 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. For proper installation of the

cooktop, the following guidlines must be followed:

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) Hoods must be installed in accordance with the instructions

contained in the installation manual for the hoods themselves,

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

and move it correctly. The cabinet should always be installed
