Installation - Indesit K 9F71SB(X) /I Additional Information For The Installation And Use

The following instructions should be read by a qualified
technician to ensure that the appliance is installed, regu-
lated and technically serviced correctly in compliance with
current regulations.
Important: remember to unplug the appliance from the
mains before regulating the appliance or carrying out
any maintenance work.
Positioning
Important: This unit may be installed and used only in
permanently ventilated rooms in compliance with current
National Regulations. The following requirements must
be observed:
a) The room must be equipped with an exhaust system
that vents the combustion fumes to the outside. It may
consist of a hood or an electric fan that automatically
starts each time the appliance is turned on
Flue or Branched Flue System
(only for cooking appliances)
b) The room must also have a system to permit proper air
circulation, needed for combustion to occur normally.
The flow of air needed for combustion must not be
less than 2 m /h per kW of installed power. The air

circulation system may take air directly from the outside
by means of a pipe with an inner cross section of at
least 100 cm ; the opening must not be able to be ac-

cidentally blocked. For those appliances not equipped
with a safety device for accidental flame loss, the
ventilation apertures must be increased by 100%, with
the minimum being 200cm
also provide the air needed for combustion by indirect
means, i.e. from adjacent rooms fitted with air circula-
tion tubes as described above. However, these rooms
must not be common rooms or bedrooms. (Fig. B).

present).

therefore, settles downwards. Thus, rooms containing
LPG cylinders must also be equipped with apertures to
the outside for ventilation of gas in the case of leaks.
LPG cylinders must not, therefore, be installed or stored
in rooms or storage areas that are below ground level
(cellars, etc.) whether they are partially or completely
full. It is a good idea to keep only the cylinder being
used in the room, positioned so that it is not subject to
heat produced by external sources (ovens, fireplaces,
stoves, etc. ) which are able to increase the tempera-
ture of the cylinder above 50°C.
Levelling your appliance
Your cooker is supplied with feet for levelling the appliance.
If necessary, these feet can be screwed into the housings
in the corners of the cooker base.
Installation of the cooker
The cooker is prepared with protection degree against
excessive heating of type X, the appliance can therefore
be installed next to cabinets, provided the height does not
exceed that of the hob. If the cooker is placed touching
walls or sides of neighbouring cabinets, these must be
capable of withstanding a temperature rise of 50°C above
room temperature. For a correct installation of the cooker
the following precautions must be followed:
a) The cooker may be located in a kitchen, a kitonen/diner
or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower
room.
b) The furniture units next to the cooker, that is higher than
the working boards, must be placed at least 110mm
from the edge of the board. Curtains must not be fitted
immediately behind the cooker or within 110 mm. of
the sides of the cooker.
c) The hoods must be installed according to the require-
ments in the hood handbook.
d) Wall cabinets may be fitted in line with the sides of the
base units, providing that the lower edge of the wall
cabinet is a minimum of 420 mm. above the worktop.
The minimum distance combustible material kitchen
units can be fitted directly above the worktop is 700
mm.
