carried out by qualified persons.
The safety and automatic adjustment devices of the appliance may only be modified by an
authorised Belling service agent.
The installation of this gas hob must comply with the standards in force.
This appliance is not connected to a flue for discharge of the combustion products; therefore, it
must be connected in compliance with the above mentioned installation rules. Particular attention
must be paid to the instructions given below for ventilation and aeration.
LOCATION
The cooker may be located in a kitchen, kitchen/diner or a bed-sitting room, but not in a room containing a
bath or shower. The hob must not be installed in a bed-sitting room of less than 20m

LPG models shall not be installed in a room or internal space below ground level, e.g. in a basement.
PROVISION FOR VENTILATION
The room containing the cooker should have an air supply in accordance with BS 5440: Part 2.
The room must have an opening window or equivalent; some rooms may also require a permanent vent. If
the room has a volume between 5 and 10 m
3
, it will require an air vent of 50 cm
2
effective area unless it has
a door which opens directly to outside. If the room has a volume of less than 5 m

, it will require an air vent
of 100 cm
2
effective area (fig.1). If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room, BS 5440: Part 2
should be consulted to determine air vent requirements.
NOTE:
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or
install a mechanical ventilation device (fig. 2).
In particular, when using the grill or more than one hotplate burner, open a window if a mechanical
ventilation device is not operating (fig. 3).
