2.4  Room ventilation 
 
 
Caution – This hob may only be installed and operated in rooms 
permanently ventilated in accordance with current regulations. For 
proper operation of a gas appliance it is essential for the air necessary 
for combustion of the gas to be able to flow naturally into the room. Air 
must flow directly into the room through openings in its outside walls. 
This (these) opening (s) must have a free passage cross-section of at 
least 100 cm
2
, or 200 cm
2
 for appliances not equipped with gas safety 
device. These openings must be constructed so that they cannot be 
obstructed indoors or outdoors, and should preferably be close to the 
floor on the side opposite to the combustion gas discharge point. If it is 
not possible to make the openings in the room where the cooker is 
installed, the necessary air may be taken from an adjoining room, 
proveded it is not a bedroom or a room with fire risk.
