The following instructions are provided for qualified installers
so that they may accomplish installation, adjustment and
technical maintenance operations correctly and in compliance
with the applicable norms in force.
Important: the appliance should be disconnected from
the mains electricity supply before any adjustment,
maintenance, etc. is carried out. Maximum caution should
be used should it be necessary to keep the appliance
connected to the electricity supply. The cookers have the
following technical specifications:
- Cat. II2H3+
Class 1
The dimensions of the appliance are given in the figure on
page 2. For trouble-free operation of appliances installed in
furniture cabinets, the minimum distances shown in fig. 4
should be observed. Adjacent surfaces and the wall at the
rear should also be able to withstand an overheating
temperature of 65 °C.

Prior to installing the cooker, the 95 ÷ 155 mm high supporting
feet (provided) should be fitted into the holes to be underneath
the cooker (fig. 5). These feet are screw-adjustable and
whenever necessary should be used to make sure the cooker
is level.
Positioning
This appliance may only be installed and operated in
permanently ventilated rooms in compliance with the
provisions set forth in normsin force. The following
requirements must be observed:
• The appliance must vent flue gases into a special hood,
which must be connected to a chimney, flue pipe or directly
to the outside (fig. 6).
• If it is impossible to fit a hood, the use of an electric fan is
permitted, either installed on a window or on an external
wall, which must be switched on at the same time as the
appliance.
In a chimney stack or branched flue
(reserved for cooking appliances)

Class 2 sub-class 1

Directly to the outside
Kitchen ventilation
The air flow into the room where the appliance is installed
must equal the quantity of air that is required for regular
combustion of the gas and for ventilating the same room. Air
must enter naturally through permanent apertures made in
the outside walls of the room or through single or branching
collective ventilation ducts in compliance with the norms.
The air must be taken directly from the outside, from an area
far from sources of pollution. The ventilation aperture must
have the following characteristics (fig. 7A):
• total free cross section of passage of at least 6 cm² for
every kW of rated heating capacity of the appliance, with a
minimum of 100 cm² (the heating capacity is indicated on
the rating plate);
• it must be made in such a way that the aperture, both on
the inside and outside of the wall, cannot be obstructed;
• it must be protected, e.g. with grates, wire mesh, etc. in
such a way that the above-mentioned free section is not
reduced;
• it must be situated as near to floor level as possible.

The air inflow may also be obtained from an adjoining room,
provided the latter is not a bedroom or a room where there is
a risk of fire, such as warehouses, garages, fuel stores, etc.
and is ventilated in compliance with the norms. The air flow
from the adjoining room to the one to be ventilated may pass
freely through permanent apertures with a cross section at
least equal to that indicated above. These apertures may
also be obtained by increasing the gap between the door and
the floor (fig. 7B). If an electric fan is used for extracting the
combustion products, the ventilation aperture must be
increased in relation to its maximum performance. The electric fan
should have a sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly exchange
of air equal to 3 ÷ 5 times the volume of the kitchen. Prolonged,
intensive use of the appliance may require extra ventilation, e.g. an
open window or a more efficient ventilation system by increasing
the extraction power of the electric fan if installed. Liquid petroleum
gas descends towards the floor as it is heavier than air. Apertures in
the outside walls in rooms containing LPG cylinders should therefore
be at floor level, in order to allow any gas from leaks to be expelled.
Do not store LPG cylinders (even when empty) in basements or
rooms below ground level; it is advisable to keep only the cylinder in
use in the room at any one time and connected far from heat sources
which could raise its temperature to above 50 °C.
Gas supply
• Check that the appliance is set for the type of gas available and
then connect it to the mains gas piping or the gas cylinder in
compliance with the applicable norms in force.
• This appliance is designed and set to work with the gas indicated
