Gas Connection

Must be in accordance with the relevant standards. A
hose is not supplied by with the cooker. Hoses may be
purchased at most builders' merchants.
The Gas sup ply needs to terminate with a down facing
bayonet. The rear cover boxes limit the position of the
supply point.
Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and
each connection is diff erent it is diffi cult to give precise
dimensions. Ideally the house supply bayonet should
be in the shaded area shown in the diagram. Although
a 900mm hose can be used, a 1250mm hose will allow
slightly more fl exibility in the positioning of the bayonet
and make moving the cooker easier. The hose should
be fi tted so that both inlet and outlet connections are
vertical so that the hose hangs downwards.
The connector is located just below the hotplate level at
the rear of the cooker.
