❑ The grease filter absorbs the solid

❑ Please retain the transportation protection device in

❑ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease and odours.

also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil
or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water
boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an
adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the
burner for combustion.
ṇ Do not use all the gas hotplates simultaneously for a
prolonged period (max. 15 minutes) at maximum thermal
load, otherwise there is a risk of burns if the housing
surfaces are touched or a risk of damage to the extractor
hood. If the extractor hood is situated over a gas hob,
operate the hood at maximum setting if three or more gas
hotplates are operated simultaneously.
Safe operation is possible provided that the underpressure
in the room where the burner is installed does not exceed
4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through
non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the
air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical
measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.
If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of
poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn
back into the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee
that the limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the
combined ventilation system for the entire household must
be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the
use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and ovens.
