Installation
The following instructions are directed at the qualified installer so that the installation and maintenance proceedures may be followed in the most professional and expert manner possible. Important: Unplug the electrical connection before performing any maintenance or regulation upkeep work.
Positioning for gas hob
Important: this unit may be installed and used only in permanently ventilated rooms according to the British Stancards 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. | Directly to the Outside |
(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 200cm2 (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 neces- sitate 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 stove tops
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
a)The hob may be located in a kitchen, a kitonen/diner or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower room.
b)The furniture standing next to the unit, that is higher than the working boards, must be placed at least 600
mmfrom the edge of the board.
c)The cabinets should be positioned next to the hood at
aheight of at least 420 mm (Fig. C).
