Levelling
The appliance is provided with adjustable
small feet placed in the back and front cor-
ners on the base.
By adjusting the small feet it is possible to
change the height of the appliance so as to

and a uniform distribution of the liquids con-
tained in pans or pots.
Gas connection
Warning! The use of a gas cooking
appliance results in the production of
heat and moisture in the room in which
it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well ventilated. Keep natural ventilation
holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance
may call for additional ventilation, for ex-
ample opening of a window, or more ef-
fective ventilation, for example increas-
ing the level of mechanical ventilation, if
present.
Gas connection must be carried out accord-
ing to the rules in force. The manufacturing
company release the unit, once tested, ad-
justed for the kind of gas stated on the rating
plate located on the back of the range, next
to connection pipe. Be sure that you are go-
ing to connect the unit to the same kind of
gas written on the plate.
Installation environment
Warning! This appliance is not
connected to a combustion products
evacuation device. It shall be installed
and connected in accordance with
current installation regulations.
Particular attention shall be given to the
relevant requirements regarding
ventilation.
In order to make the gas unit work properly,
it is necessary that air sufficient to gas com-
bustion can naturally flow in the room. (The
installer must follow the rules in force).
The air flow into the room must come directly
through openings of external walls. These
openings (or opening) should be realized in
such a way not to be occluded both from in-
side and outside.
Installation and maintenance must be carried
out by a qualified technician, in compliance
with rules in force.
The electric connection must be carried out
in compliance rules in force.
Important! Our responsibility will not be
involved in case of accidents caused by a
defective or non existent earth connection.
Combustion products discharge
Gas cooking units must discharge combus-
tion products through hoods directly con-
nected to flues or outside.
Connection using a rigid pipe or a
flexible metal pipe
To ensure higher safety, it is recommended
to carry out the connection to the gas system
using rigid pipes (ex. copper) or using flexible
stainless steel pipes, to avoid any stress to
the unit. Gas feeding pipe fitting is Gc 1/2.
For this type of installation, connection to the
gas supply should be carried out using only
and exclusively flexible metallic tubes in con-
formity with rules in force.
