Important
- Do not use unstable or buckled pots and pans on the burners, since they may tip over or cause spills.
- If the appliance has a lid, make sure the burners are cold before closing it.
- Shut the gas supply tap when the hob is not in use.
- Before installation, make sure your local gas supply is compatible with the appliance specifications.
The type of gas with which the appliance is designed to be used is specified on the dataplate on the
underside of the hob. This appliance is not connected to a device for removal of gas combustion fumes
and must be installed and connected in compliance with all regulations in force. Pay particular heed to
regulations governing ventilation. The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and moisture in the
room where it is installed. Ensure the room is adequately ventilated: keep natural ventilation openings
open, or install a mechanical ventilation device (extractor hood with exhaust duct). In the event
of intensive or prolonged use of the appliance, it may be necessary to provide additional ventilation,
for example, by opening a window, or more efficient ventilation, for example by increasing the extractor
hood speed.
The manufacturer declines all liability for damage or injury resulting from: incorrect installation,
improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.
Positioning
Detailed below are all the procedures to be followed for the installation of your appliance, including gas
and electrical connections. These procedures must be carried out exclusively by a qualified technician,
in accordance with current regulations, since installation by an unqualified person may constitute a health
hazard.
The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals or damage to property resulting from
failure to comply with these regulations. The gas connection must conform to the current legislation in the
country at the time of installation.
Preparing the worktop
This handbook refers to a class 3 built-in hob.
Prepare the cut-out in the worktop as per the measurements shown in fig. 1.
It is vital, in any case, to select the most convenient position for the cut-out, taking into consideration the fact
that the gas pipe must not touch the sides of any cooking appliance below the hob.
Positioning the hob in the worktop
After carrying out the necessary connections, position the sealing strip all around the cut-out and lower the
hob into position. Proceed to carefully tighten the fixing hooks. Remove any excess sealing strip.
Important
This is a Type "Y" appliance in terms of protection against the risk of fire, which means it can be installed near
wooden walls or units higher than the installation worktop, as long as the following minimum distances from
the edge of the hob are observed: 50 mm. to side walls, 30 mm to the rear wall and 700 mm to any wall units
above the hob.
