c)
Intensive and prolonged use of the appliance may necessitate supplemental ventilation, e.g.
opening a Window or increasing the power of the air intake system (if present).
d)
Liquidified petroleum gases are heavier than air and, as a result, settle downwards. Rooms in
which LPG tanks are installed must be fitted with ventilation openings to the outside in order
to allow the gas to escape in the event of a leak. Therefore, LPG tanks, whether empty or
partially full, must not be installed or stored in rooms or spaces below ground level'(cellars,
ect.). It is also a good idea to keep only the tank currently being used in the room, making
sure that it is not near sources of heat (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc.) that could raise the
internal temperature of the tank above 50ºC.
Installation of built-in hobs
The gas hobs are prepared with protection degree against excessive heating of type X, the
appliance can therefore be installed next to cabinets, provided the height does not exceed that of
the hob. For a correct installation of the cooking hob the following precautions must be followed:
a)
The hob may be located in a kitchen, a ketone/diner or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom
or shower room.
b)
The furniture standing next to the unit, that is highe1 than the working boards, must be placed
at least 110mm from the edge of the board.
c)
The cabinets should be positioned next to the hood at a height of at least 420 mm (Fig. 5).

d)
Should the hob be install-ed directly under a cupboard the letter should be at least 700mm
(millimetres) from the worktop, as shown in Fig. C.
e)
The dimensions of the room for the furniture must those indicated in the figures in the last two
pages the cover. Fixing hooks are provided which allow place the hob plate on work tops that
measure 20 to 40 mm in thickness (see Fig. 6).To obtain a of the hob plate it is advisable to use
