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.		450 mm	650 mm
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 cm2.
The vents must be positioned close to the floor, preferably
on the opposite side to the gas burners of your cooker (as
shown in Figs. 1a and 1b). 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		Extractor
must be opened to allow the draught to enter the room.
