1.2.DISCHARGE OF FUEL GASES
Cooking appliances must always discharge the flue gases into special hoods (fig.1-C), which
must be connected to chimneys, flue pipes or have directly access to the outside. If it is not
possible to connect a hood, an electric fan can be fitted to a window or a wall (fig.1-E), which
must be turned on when the cooker is on, as long
as ventilation standards are strictly adhered to.
1.3.POSITIONING THE COOKER
a
) Built-in cooker: type Y – class 2 subclass 2/1
Cookers in this class can be fitted between two
units, unless the side in contact with the cooker is
higher than the hob. In this case, the unit must
stand at least 5 cm away from the top of the hob.
If the cooker has a baseboard fitted, a 2cm vent
must be made in the front along the entire width
of the cooker.
b) Free standing cooker: type X – class 1; point a)
also applies to this class, with the exception that
one side of the cooker must be left free so that
the flexible rubber gas piping, can be inspected.
After unpacking the cooker, remove the
plastic protection from the stainless steel,
aluminium and/or painted parts to avoid it melting.
The utmost care must be taken when removing
this protection so as not to damage the protected
parts. Now the feet can be fitted. They must be
fixed to the ends of the slits on the cooker
pedestal. Their height can be adjusted in order to
line the cooker up with other units. Ensure that
the cooker is perfectly stable. Fit the burners, the
flame diffusers and the grids into their seats on the hob (see paragraph
3.9). Some models come with rubber pads that prevent the steel hob
surface from being scratched. Fit them to the central pan grid made of
chrome-plated rod.
LEG FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
