Gas & Electrical connection
Please refer to installation instructions for
the Gas & Electrical Safety Regulations
and the Ventilation Requirements.
In your own interest, and that of safety,
it is the law that all gas appliances be
installed by a competent person, who will
ensure that the installation is in accor-
dance with “The Gas Safety (Installation
& Use) Regulations”, & the “The Gas
Safety (Installation & Use) (Amendment)
Regulations”. Failure to comply with these
Regulations is a criminal offence.
As with all gas appliances, it is ec-
ommended that your hob is serviced
regularly.
Disconnection of gas and electric appli-
ances should always be carried out by
competent persons.
WARNING: This appliance
must be earthed.
Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance re-
sults in the production of heat and mois-
ture in the room in which it is installed.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated;
keep natural ventilation holes open or
install a mechanical ventilation device
(mechanical extractor
hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance
may call for additional ventilation, for
example opening of a window, or more
effective ventilation, for example increas-
ing the level of mechanical ventilation
where present. Before installing and us-
ing the hob for the first time, remove any
packaging or protective polythene film.
