Before installation, make sure the gas supply is compatible with appliance specifications. The arrangement for the gas
usable is given on the label on the bottom of the tray. This appliance is not connected to a fume extraction device and
must be installed and connected in compliance with the current regulations. Pay particular attention to the applicable
regulations on ventilation. The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the room where it is
installed. Ensure the room is adequately ventilated: keep natural ventilation openings open, or install a mechanical
ventilation device (extractor hood with exhaust duct). In case of intensive or prolonged use of the appliance, it may
be necessary to provide additional ventilation, for example by opening a window, or more efficient ventilation,
by increasing the fan speed (if present).
The manufacturer declines any liability for damage due to: incorrect installation, improper, wrong or
unreasonable use.
Installation
The necessary operations for installation, including gas and electrical connections, are described below. Such operations
must be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with current regulations, since their performance by unskilled
people may constitute a hazard.
The manufacturer declines any liability for injury or damage due to non-compliance with these provisions. THE GAS
CONNECTION MUST COMPLY WITH UNI 7129 AND UNI 7131 STANDARDS.
Preparing the cabinet
This handbook regards a class 3 built-in cooking hob.
Prepare the opening in the top according to the measurements given in fig. 1.
The opening must be made in the most convenient position, taking into account that the gas pipe must not come into
contact with the sides of a possible oven under the hob.
The opening of the recess must be at least 55 mm from the rear wall. Any right or left side wall higher than the hob must
be at least 150 mm from the hole in the top.
