AFETY REQUIREMENTS
1.1. Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is
installed. It is essential that the kitchen where the ”La Cornue” stove will be installed has excellent ven-
tilation to the outside, for vapor and combustion gases, and a fresh air inlet.
Do not use air recycling systems.
Ventilation exhaust devices can be vapor aspirators or hoods.
1.2. Clearances to combustible construction
The minimum horizontal distance from
sides of appliance to the adjacent vertical
combustible walls extending
18” (457 mm)
above the top panel is
12” (305 mm).
The maximum depth of overhead cabinets is
13” (330 mm).
The minimum horizontal distances between
overhead cabinets is not less then the
nominal width of the appliance (A).
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by
reaching over heated surface units,
cabinet storage space located above
the surface units should be avoided.
