Advice for the installer IMPORTANT • Cooker installation must only be carried out by QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS and in compliance with local safety standards. Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any manufacturer’s warranty. • The appliance must be installed in compliance with regulations in force in your country and in observation of the manufacturer’s instructions.
INSTALLATION The cooker affords class “1” protection against overheating of surrounding surfaces.

A space of at least 2 cm must be left between the cooker and any adjacent furniture, which must not exceed the height of the cooktop.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations con- cerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases. Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window, or more efficient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is fitted. CHOOSING SUITABLE SURROUNDINGS The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural flow of air so that the gas can burn (in compliance with applicable local regulations).
GAS SECTION GAS INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS Important ! • The walls adjacent to the cooker must be of heat-resistant material. • Before installation, make sure that the local distribution conditions (gas type and pressure) and the adjustment of this appliance are compatible. The applian- ce adjustment conditions are given on the plate or the label.
