LOCATION AND VENTILATION
Gas cooking appliances must always have the
corresponding combustion products extracted
via cooker hoods connected to a fl ue or directly
to the outside (see Figure A). If it is not possible
to install a cooker hood, the use of an extractor
fan installed in a window or ducted directly outside
is permissible; this must be connected so as to
come on when the appliance is operational (see
Figure B), and all ventilation requirements laid out
in applicable legislation must be met.

CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE TO THE GAS
SUPPLY
Before connecting the appliance to the gas
supply, check that the data on the product
identifi cation label is compatible with the gas
supply specifi cations.
When the gas is supplied from the mains, the
appliance must be connected to the gas supply
with rigid copper tube or via a steel hose, in
accordance with applicable legislation.
When the gas is supplied from a cylinder, via a
compliant pressure regulator with continuous-
wall stainless-steel hose, it is advisable to install
a special after-market adapter on the hose to
facilitate connection with the hose barb of the
pressure regulator installed on the cylinder.
The hose must not pass through compartments
which may be fi lled, and must not come into
contact with moving components such as drawers.
On completing installation, check for any leaks
with a soapy solution, never with a fl ame.
WARNING: Remember that the appliance’s gas
inlet is a male 1/2” BSPP fi tting to ISO 228-1.
