4.1 Safety rules
• Only a local gas utility technician is authorized to carry out gas
installations and connections. The statutory regulations (applied
in Germany VDE, Austria ÖVE, Switzerland SEV, etc.) and connec-
tion conditions performed by the gas utility must be strictly
observed.
• Connection to a power balance system for the installation in a
wall is provided for through a connection point. Adhere to cur-
rent local legal requirements for connection.
• Please note the electrical diagram! Compare the wiring diagram
number on the data plate of the appliance with the one shown
on the electrical diagram.
• Do not bend, crush or damage the cables against sharp corners.
• Lay the cables so as to avoid contact with extremely hot surfaces.
• The cable – which is totally sheathed – must be led inside the
appliance through the cable clamp and cable raceway installed
on the appliance.
• Ventilation system installation can be carried only by expert per-
sonnel.
• If the appliance is to be installed near walls, dividing walls,
kitchen equipment or decorative panelling, these should be in
non-inflammable material. If not, all appliances must be coated
with thermal-insulation fireproof material. Make sure that all fire
prevention standards and safety precautions are strictly adhered
to.

Temperature adjustment between 50 and 300° C is made by a ther-
mostat connected to a tri-polar switch.
It is possible to turn on the upper and lower heating elements sepa-
rately or at the same time.
Indicator lights show when voltage is supplied to the appliance (see

are covered by stainless steel panels.
Temperature adjustment between 50 and 300° C is made by a ther-
mostat connected to a switch.
The use of a 9-position commutator makes it possible to light the
heating elements separately or at the same time with ventilation or
in static mode.
The lighting of the heating elements is indicated by 2 indicator
lights (see fig. 4B).

4.3 Assembly
4.3.1 Installation premises
The appliance should be installed in a well-ventilated room, and if

The appliance can be installed on its own or with other similar
equipment.
If the appliance is to be installed near inflammable walls, a minimum
distance of 150 mm around the sides and back should be allowed.
If this distance cannot be obtained, take proper heat-protection
action such as fitting tiles or thermal radiation protection material
to the walls.
Before connecting the appliance to the gas supply, check on the
data plate that the appliance is suitable and type-tested for the
type of gas available.
