Insufficient ventilation when cooking with gas cookers
Caution:
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the
production of heat, moisture and products of combustion in the
room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated especially when the appliance is in use: keep natural
ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device
(mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional
ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective
ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present.
Do not hang easily combustible materials, such as curtains,
near this appliance. If the burners are not covered with
ovenware, do not operate the extractor hood. Grease deposits
in the filters of the extractor hood may ignite, and the resulting
hot temperatures may damage the extractor hood. There is a
risk of fire!
Hinges
