Important: Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply before performing any maintenance or repair. Positioning the Hob Important: this unit may be installed and used only in permanently ventilated rooms in accordance with British Standard Codes Of Practice: B.S. 6172 / B.S. 5440, Par. 2 and B.S. 6891 Current Editions.The following requirements must be observed: a) The room must be fitted with a ventilation system which vents smoke and gases from combustion to the outside.This must be done by means of a hood or electric ventilator that turns on automatically each time the hob is operated. In a chimney stack or branched flue. Directly to the Outside(exclusively for cooking appliances) b)The room must have an air flow to allow for proper combustion. This must be 2 m3./h per kW of installed power. The airflow can be created using an enclosed vent with an inner cross section of at least 100 cm. which must not be able to be blocked. I the appliance does not have a flame failure device, the vent must have an internal cross section of 200 cm3. (Fig. A). Alternatively the room in which the hob is situated can be vented indirectly through ventilation ducts as specified above, as long as the adjacent room is not a shared area, a bedroom or present any risk of fire (Fig. B). Detail A Adjacent Room to be d) Liquidified petroleum gases are heavier than air and, as a result, settle downwards. Rooms in which LPG tanks are installed must be fitted with ventilation openings to the outside in order to allow the gas to escape in the event of a leak. Therefore, LPG tanks, whether empty or partially full, must not be installed or stored in rooms or spaces below ground level (cellars, ect.). It is also a good idea to keep only the tank currently being used in the room, making sure that it is not near sources of heat (ovens, fireplaces, stoves, etc.) that could raise the internal temperature of the tank above 50°C. Installation of Built-in Hobs The gas hob is equipped with type X degree protection against overheating. Therefore, the appliance can be installed next to cabinets, provided the height of the cabinet does not exceed that of the hob.
