[. . . ] Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the data on the rating plate (situated on the bottom part of the appliance and on the last page of the booklet) correspond to those of the mains electricity and gas supplies. Check that the capacity of the electrical system and the power outlets are suitable for the maximum power of the appliance, indicated on the rating plate. Switch off the main switch and gas supply when you are not using the hob. The gas burners and pan supports remain heated for a long time after use. [. . . ] The removable parts of the burners should be washed frequently with warm water and soap, making sure to remove caked-on substance. Greasing the taps As time passes, a tap may lock or become difficult to turn. In this case it will be necessary to clean inside and replace the grease. This procedure must be performed by a technician authorized by the manufacturer. GB IE The following instructions are provided for qualified installers so that they may accomplish installation, adjustment and technical maintenance operations correctly and in compliance with current regulations and standards. Important: the hob should be disconnected from the mains electricity supply before any adjustment, maintenance, etc. Maximum caution should be used whenever it is necessary to keep the appliance connected to the electricity supply. The hobs have the following technical characteristics: -Category II 2H3+ - Class 1: all models whose edges are higher than/equal to 82 mm (see following page, fig. - Class 3: all models whose edges are lower than/equal to 82 mm (see following page, fig. Positioning This appliance may only be installed and operated in permanently ventilated rooms in compliance with provisions laid down by current regulations and standards. The following requirements must be observed: · The appliance must discharge combustion products into a special hood, which must be connected to a chimney, flue pipe or directly to the outside (Fig. If it is impossible to fit a hood, the use of an electric fan is permitted, either installed on a window or on an external wall, which must be switched on at the same time as the appliance. Total free cross section of passage of at least 6 cm² for every kW of rated heating capacity of the appliance, with a minimum of 100 cm² (the heating capacity is indicated on the rating plate); · It must be made in such a way that the aperture, both on the inside and outside of the wall, cannot be obstructed; · In such a way that the above-mentioned free section is not reduced; · It must be situated as near to floor level as possible. Enlarging the ventilation slot between window and floor The air inflow may also be obtained from an adjoining room, provided the latter is not a bedroom or a room where there is a risk of fire, such as garages, mews, fuel stores, etc. Air from the adjoining room to the one to be ventilated may be made to freely pass through permanent apertures with a cross section at least equal to that indicated above. These apertures may also be obtained by increasing the gap between the door and the floor (Fig. If an electric fan is used for extracting the combustion products, the ventilation aperture must be increased in relation to its maximum performance. The electric fan should have a sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly exchange of air equal to 3-5 times the volume of the kitchen. Prolonged, intensive use of the appliance may require extra ventilation, e. An open window or a more efficient ventilation system by increasing the extraction power of the electric fan if installed. Liquid petroleum gas descends towards the floor as it is heavier than air. Apertures in the outside walls in rooms containing LPG cylinders should therefore be at floor level, in order to allow any gas from leaks to be expelled. [. . . ] To connect directly to the mains supply, a double-pole switch with a contact separation of at least 3 mm suitable for the load and complying with current standards and regulations, must be fitted between the appliance and the mains supply outlet. The supply cable must be in such a position that no part of it can reach a temperature of 50 °C above room temperature. For installation above a built-under oven, the hob and the oven must be connected separately to the electricity supply both for safety reasons and for easy removal of the oven if necessary. Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that: · The limiter valve and the domestic system can withstand the load from the appliance (see rating plate); · the supply system is efficiently earthed according to standards and laws in force; · The socket or double-pole switch are easily accessible when the appliance is installed.
