IMPORTANT INSTALLATION
SPECIFICATIONS
The installer should note that the appliance that
side walls should be no higher than the hot plate
itself. Furthermore, the rear wall, the surfaces
surrounding and adjacent to the appliance must
be able to withstand an overtemperature of 65 K.
The adhesive used to stick the plastic laminate to
the cabinet must be able to withstand a
temperature of not less than 150° C otherwise the
laminate could come unstuck.
The appliance must be installed in compliance
with the provisions in force.
This appliance is not connected to a device able to
dispose of the combustion fumes. It must
therefore be connected in compliance with the
above mentioned installation standards. Particular
care should be paid to the following provisions
governing ventilation and aeration.
5) ROOM VENTILATION
It is essential to ensure that the room in which the
appliance is installed is permanently ventilated in
order to allow the appliance itself to operate
correctly. the necessary amount of air is that
required for regular gas combustion and ventilation
of the relative room, the volume of which must not
be less than 20 m3. Air must naturally flow through
permanent openings in the walls of the room in
question. These openings must vent the fumes
outdoors and their section must be at least 100 cm2
(see fig. 3). Construction of the openings must
ensure that the openings themselves may never be
blocked. Indirect ventilation by air drawn from an
adjacent room is also permitted, in strict compliance
with the provisions in force.
6) LOCATION AND AERATION
Gas cooking appliances must always dispose of
their combustion fumes through hoods. These
must be connected to flues, chimneys or straight
outside. If it is not possible to install a hood, an
electric fan can be installed on a window or on a
wall facing outside (see fig. 4). This must be
activated at the same time as the appliance (see
fig. 5), so long as the specifications in the
provisions in force are strictly complied with.
