instructions carefully. It contains important information concerning the safe 

installation and operation of the appliance.

!

 Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Make sure that

!

 The appliance must be installed by a qualified professional in accordance 

with the instructions provided.

!

 Any necessary adjustment or maintenance must be performed after the 

cooker has been disconnected from the electricity supply.

The cookers have the following technical specifications:

Category: II 2H3+

Room ventilation

The appliance may only be installed in permanently-ventilated rooms, 

according to current national legislation. The room in which the appliance is 

installed must be ventilated adequately in order to provide as much air as 

is needed by the normal gas combustion process (the flow of air must not 

be lower than 2 m

3

/h per kW of installed power).The air inlets, protected by 

grilles, should have a duct with an inner cross section of at least 100 cm

2

 and 

should be positioned so that they are not liable to even partial obstruction 

(see figure A).These inlets should be enlarged by 100% - with a minimum 

of 200 cm

2

 - whenever the surface of the hob is not equipped with a flame 

failure safety device. When the flow of air is provided in an indirect manner 

from adjacent rooms (see figure B), provided that these are not communal 

parts of a building, areas with increased fire hazards or bedrooms, the inlets 

should be fitted with a ventilation duct leading outside as described above.

 After prolonged use of the appliance, it is advisable to open a window or 

increase the speed of any fans used. 

Disposing of combustion fumes

The efficient disposal of combustion fumes should be guaranteed using a 

hood which is connected to a safe and efficient natural suction chimney, or 

using an electric fan which begins to operate automatically every time the 

appliance is switched on (see figure).

In a chimney stack or branched flue. 

(exclusively for cooking appliances)

Directly to 

the Outside

!

 The liquefied petroleum gases are heavier than air and collect by the floor, 

therefore all rooms containing LPG cylinders must have openings leading 

outside so that any leaked gas can escape easily. 

LPG cylinders, therefore, whether partially or completely full, must not be 

installed or stored in rooms or storage areas which are below ground level 

(cellars, etc.). Only the cylinder being used should be stored in the room; 

this should also be kept well away from sources of heat (ovens, chimneys, 

stoves) which may cause the temperature of the cylinder to rise above 50°C.

Positioning and levelling

!

 The appliance may be installed alongside any cupboards whose height does 

not exceed that of the hob surface.

!

 Make sure that the wall in contact with the back of the appliance is made 

from a non-flammable, heat-resistant material (T 90°C).

To install the appliance correctly:

•  Place it in the kitchen, the dining room or the studio flat (not in the 

bathroom).

•  If the top of the hob is higher than the cupboards, the appliance must be 

installed at least 500 mm away from them.

•  If the cooker is installed 

underneath a wall cabinet, there 

must be a minimum distance of 420 

mm between this cabinet and the top 

of the hob.

This distance should be increased 

to 700 mm if the wall cabinets are 

flammable (see figure).

•  Do not position blinds behind 

the cooker or less than 200 mm away 

from its sides.

•  Any hoods must be installed in accordance with the instructions listed in 

the relevant operating manual.

Levelling

If it is necessary to level the appliance, 

screw the adjustable feet into the 

places provided on each corner of 

the base of the cooker (see figure).

Gas connection

Connection to the gas network or to the gas cylinder may be carried out using 

a flexible rubber or steel hose, in accordance with current national legislation 

and after making sure that the appliance is suited to the type of gas with which 

it will be supplied (see the rating sticker on the cover: if this is not the case 

see below). When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator 

which complies with current national regulations.

!

 Make sure that the gas supply pressure is consistent with the values indicated 

in the Table of burner and nozzle specifications (see below). This will ensure 

the safe operation and durability of your appliance while maintaining efficient 

energy consumption. 

Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose

Make sure that the hose complies with current national legislation. The internal 

diameter of the hose must measure: 8 mm for a liquid gas supply;13 mm for 

a methane gas supply.
