Risk of explosion due to an
incorrect gas connection.
If the gas connection is carried out
incorrectly, it may result in gas
leakage.
Connection to the gas supply must
only be undertaken by an authorised
and registered gas installer in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety and building
regulations. The installer is
responsible for ensuring that the
appliance functions correctly when
installed.

Risk of explosion due to an
incorrect conversion.
If the conversion to another type of
gas is carried out incorrectly, it may
result in gas leakage.
Conversion from one type of gas to
another must only be undertaken by
an approved and registered gas
installer in strict accordance with
current local and national safety and
building regulations. The installer is
responsible for ensuring that the
appliance functions correctly when
installed.
The gas connection must be
installed so that connection can be
made either from inside or outside
the kitchen furniture unit. Every
appliance must have its own
isolating valve. The isolating valve
must be easily accessible and visible
(by opening the cabinet door if
necessary).
Check with your local gas supplier
about the type of gas supplied and
compare this information with the
type of gas quoted on the
appliance's data plate.
The cooktop is not connected to an
exhaust flue.
When installing and connecting the
appliance, please observe the
relevant regulations and ensure it has
adequate ventilation once installed.
The gas connection must be made in
accordance with national and local
regulations.
Special provisions of the local gas
supplier as well as building
regulations must also be observed.

Risk of heat damage.
Gas connections, gas hoses or pipes
and mains connection cables can be
damaged if exposed to heat from the
cooktop.
After installation make sure that
neither the gas hose/pipe nor the
mains cable can come into contact
with hot parts of the appliance and
that the gas hose/pipe and
connections on the cooktop cannot
come into contact with hot exhaust
fumes.
