Adjacent cabinetry
The dimensions of the appliance are given in the

point sin the table on page 10 . For trouble-free
operation of appliances installed in housing units,
the minimum distances shown in fig.4 should be
observed. It is recommended that the adjacent
kitchen surfaces should be capable of withstanding
temperatures of 65°C. Also, the following must be
observed:
• The appliance should be installed next to
cabinetry which is no taller than the top of the
cooker hob.
• The wall in direct contact with the back panel of
the cooker must be made of non-flammable
material. During operation of the cooker, the back
panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
50°C above room temperature.
• Kitchen cabinets installed next to the cooker that
are higher than the top of the hob, must be at
least 600 mm from the edge of the hob itself.
• If the hood is installed below a wall cabinet, the
latter must be at least 700 mm (millimetres) above
the surface of the hob.
• Cabinets installed adjacent to the hood must be
at least 420 mm above the hob,
The following minimum clearances to combustible
materials must be observed:
• Minimum clearance from edge of burner to side
wall must be 200 mm.
Minimum clearance from edge of burner to rear wall
must be 200 mm.
In the lower part of the cooker there are 4 height

Kitchen ventilation
Where the total input of all appliances exceeds 3
MJ/h for each cubic metre of the room or enclosure
volume, the space shall be ventilated by one of the
methods detailed below. For the purpose of
assessing the adequacy of ventilation, the space
that cannot be isolated by doors is the ‘volume of a
room’.
Natural ventilation direct from outside
Two permanent openings shall be provided directly
to outside. The openings shall be located to ensure
the distance between the top of the upper opening
and the ceiling of the room or enclosure, and the
distance between the bottom of the lower opening
and the floor of the room or enclosure does not
exceed 5% of the height of the room or enclosure.
The minimum free ventilation area provided by each
opening shall be calculated using the following
formula:
A = 3 × T
where
A = the minimum free ventilation area (cm
2
)
T = the total gas consumption of all appliances
(MJ/h)
The minimum vertical dimension of any free
ventilation opening shall be 6 mm.
NOTE 1 When used in this Clause, the term ‘directly
to outside’ means any one of the following options,
provided that the ventilation path is unobstructed by
building material or insulation:
(a) Directly through an outside wall (preferred
option).
