WARNING ‒ Risk of poisoning!
Using the gas cooking appliance leads to a
build-up of heat, moisture and combustion
products in the room where the appliance is
installed.
▶
Ensure that the kitchen is sufficiently ventil-
ated, in particular when operating the gas
cooking appliance.

If the appliance is used intensively and for
prolonged periods, ensure that there is ad-
ditional ventilation so that the combustion
products are safely fed to the outside, e.g.
if using existing ventilation equipment, set a
higher performance level and, at the same
time, ensure that the air is replaced with
fresh air in the room where the appliance is
installed.

Consult specialist personnel when installing
additional ventilation equipment.
