Instructions for Installation Of The Appliance
(Positioning and ventilation requirements)
The regulations covering the installation, maintenance and
operation of gas appliances for domestic use are applicable
regulations.
An extract of these regulations appears below. For all indications
not covered, refer to the above-mentioned regulations.
Positioning
The products of combustion from cooking appliances must
always be discharged into suitable extractor hoods, which
must be connected to a chimney, flue or vented directly to
outside the building. In situations where it is not possible to
install an extractor hood, an electric extractor fan installed in a
window or external wall may be used, provided that all
requirements of the ventilation regulations are satisfied; the fan
should switch on whenever the appliance is in operation.
Ventilation
It is essential that the room in which gas appliances are installed
is adequately ventilated to ensure that all the appliances receive
the required quantity of fresh air for combustion.
To ensure an adequate air flow, it may be necessary to create
apertures in accordance with the following requirements:
a) with cross-sectional area of 6 cm2 per kW with a minimum
cross-sectional area of 100 cm2 (these apertures may also
be created by increasing the gap between the bottom of
doors and the floor);
b) situated at the bottom of an external wall, preferably opposite
the wall on which combustion products are extracted ;
c) the positions of the apertures should selected so as to avoid
the possibility of their being obstructed and, if made in
external walls, they must be protected with grilles, metal
meshes, etc. installed on the outside face of the wall.

VENTILATION
If an electric extractor fan for the removal of foul air is installed
in the room, the apertures provided for air changes must
allow a ventilation rate of at least 35 m3/h per kW of power
installed.
Gas Connection
The oven is designed to operate with both natural gas
(methane) and liquid gas (LPG), and can be easily converted
from one type to another following the instructions given in the
relative section of this booklet.
Connection to the gas supply must be carried out by qualified
technicians and in conformance with the requirements.
If the appliance is to operate with gas bottles (LPG), a pressure
regulator conforming to the requirements.
Rigid Pipe Connection
Connection to the mains gas supply may be made via a rigid
pipe firmly attached to the fitting "G", or via a flexible stainless
steel continuous-wall hose, conforming with a maximum length
of 2 metres.
The fitting "G" and seal "C" are supplied with the appliance,
and comply with standards.
IMPORTANT
Use two wrenches to turn the fitting "G" to the required
position. When the fitting is in the desired position, firmly
tighten nut "A".
