which it is installed. Ensure good
ventilation of the room by keeping natural
ventilation openings clear or installing an
extractor hood with a discharge tube.
A prolonged and intensive use of the
appliance may necessitate supplementary
ventilation, for example the opening of a
window or a more efficient ventilation by
increasing the power of mechanical
extraction, if existing.

sufficiently to maintain simmering point. In case
the burner flame accidentally goes out, close the
command switch and try to ignite again after not
