Ventilation requirements:
This appliance must only be used in rooms equipped with adequate ventilation.
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 (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may require additional or more
effective ventilation, for example, opening of a window or increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation, where present.

Benchtop preparation
• Make sure the kitchen area is dry with sufficient ventilation
and easy access to all control elements.
• Do not install the cooktop near curtains or other flammable
materials.
• The cooktop can be fitted to any benchtop with a thickness
of 40–50mm.
• If you have (or plan to have) a rangehood fitted above the
cooktop, check in the rangehood instructions that you will
have the required clearance before starting with the installation.
