General information - To install and use any electric appliance a few fundamental rules must be
respected. This appliance must be installed by specialised personnel in accordance with the
regulations in force. Any maintenance or adjustment intervention must be carried out with the
appliance unplugged from the power source.
Warning: Gas cooking appliances produce heat and damp in the room where they are located.
An adequate airing of the room must be ensured by keeping every natural ventilation orifice
open or by installing an inlet hood fitted with a waste pipe.

Place of installation - For the gas appliance to work correctly, the gas combustion must be
supplied by enough air reaching the room in a natural way. (The installer must abide by the
current national installation norms and subsequent amendments). The air circulating into the
room must arrive directly from openings made in the external walls. Such openings must have a
clear 100 cm
2
cross section area for the air flow and a 100 cm
2
one to discharge combusted
gas. Should other gas operating appliances be installed, such openings must be appropriately
enlarged. These openings must be located in such a way as not to be obstructed from either the
inside or the outside. The opening allowing air circulation must be placed close to the ground,
whilst the one used for the combustion discharge must be located on the high side of an
external wall. Could not these openings be made in the same area where the appliance is
installed, the amount of air needed could also come from an adjacent room, provided that this
is not a bedroom nor a dangerous area and that it is appropriately ventilated (current national
installation norms and subsequent amendments).

-
Gas type cooking appliances must discharge the combusted
products through hoods connected to the chimney flue or directly to the outside. The hood
must be positioned at least 700 mm far from the working surface. Keep this distance also when
installing components or shelves horizontally above the appliance. In case a hood could not be
installed, an electric ventilation unit must be applied to the external part of the room or to a
window, provided that the room is fitted with openings for air circulation (the current national
installation norms and subsequent amendments). The electric ventilation unit must ensure an air
circulation rate equivalent to 3-5 times the volume of that room per hour.
Warning: an intense and prolonged use of the appliance may require additional aeration, which
could be achieved opening a window or increasing the mechanical inlet power, where it exists,
consequently improving the airing efficiency.
