!Before operating your new appliance please read this instruction booklet carefully. It contains important information for safe use, installation and care of the appliance.

!Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.

Fitting the appliance

The following precautions must be taken when installing the hob:

Kitchen cabinets adjacent to the appliance and taller than the top of the hob must be at least 600 mm from the edge of the hob.

Hoods must be installed according to their relative installation instruction manuals and at a minimum distance of 650 mm from the hob (see figure).

Place the wall cabinets adjacent to the hood at a minimum height of 420 mm from the hob (see figure).

Positioning

!Keep packaging material out of the reach of children. It can become a choking

or suffocation hazard (see Precautions and tips).

! The appliance must be installed by a qualified professional according to the

instructions provided. Incorrect installation may cause harm to people and

animals or may damage property.

If the hob is installed beneath a wall cabinet, the latter must be situated at a minimum of 700 mm above the hob.

This unit may be installed and used only in permanently ventilated rooms

in accordance with current national regulations. The following requirements

must be observed:

• The room must be equipped with an air extraction system that expels

any combustion fumes. This may consist of a hood or an electric fan that

automatically starts each time the appliance is switched on.

The room must also allow proper air circulation, as air is needed for combustion to occur normally. The flow of air must not be less than 2 m3/h per kW of installed power.

Before the installation remove the grids and burners from the hob and turn it upside down, making sure you don’t damage the thermocouples and spark plugs.

Apply the seals that come with the appliance along the outer edges of the hob to prevent any passage of air, humidity and water (see Figure).

For proper application make sure the surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry and free of any grease/oil.

The installation cavity should have the dimensions indicated in the figure.

Fastening hooks are provided, allowing you to fasten the hob to tops that are between 20 and 40 mm thick. To ensure the hob is securely fastened

to the top, we recommend you use all the hooks provided.

The air circulation system may take air directly from the outside by means of a pipe with an inner cross section of at least 100 cm2; 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 tubes as described above. However, these rooms must not be communal rooms, bedrooms or rooms that may present 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 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 that are below ground level (cellars, etc.). It is advisable to keep only the cylinder being used in the room, positioned so that it is not subject to heat produced by external sources (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc. ) which could raise the temperature of the cylinder above 50°C.
