Installation Guide
90cm freestanding cookers
WIRING REQUIREMENTS
The cooker MUST be installed in compliance with:
• Wiring connections in AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules.
• Local regulations, municipal building codes and other statutory
regulations.
For New Zealand Only:
The cooking range must be connected to the supply by a
supply cord fitted with the appropriately rated plug that is
compatible with the socket-outlet fitted to the final sub-
circuit in the fixed wiring that is intended to supply this
cooking range.
Supply cord size required:
WFE9515 models - 2.5mm
2
WFE9516/WFEP9717 models - 4.0mm
2
WFE9546 models - 16.0mm
2
WFE9756/WFEP9757 models - 10mm²
The Data plate gives information about rating and is located behind
the bottom of the oven door.
• A functional switch MUST be provided near the appliance in an
accessible position (AS/NZS 3000).
• Wiring MUST be protected against mechanical failure (AS/NZS
3000).
• Disconnection in the fixed wiring must occur in accordance with
the AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules.
• The cooker MUST be properly earthed.
• This range must be connected with cable of 75°C rating minimum.
• This product has passed the insulation resistance test after
manufacture. If the resistance reading is low at installation,
it is probably caused by moisture from the atmosphere being
absorbed by the elements after the range has been produced.
(pass at 0.01 M AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules).
Note: When connections are made to a multi-phase 230/240V
supply, the bridge piece MUST be removed from between the
active connections.

oils used in the manufacture of the product be removed.
• Make sure that the room is well ventilated (to allow smoke to
escape).
• Run the grill on high for 30 minutes without grill dish.
• Then run the oven on 180°C for 1 hour.

For information and requirements about construction
and capacity of consumer piping refer to AS/NZS 5601.1 series of
standards.
Gas connection
Read these points before connecting to the gas supply:
• The appliance is preset for natural gas use, if LPG is to be used see
Conversion to LPG section.
• Gas installation must be made in accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1,
the local gas fitting regulations, municipal codes and other
statutory regulations.
• The gas connection point is a ½" BSP external thread located at the
rear of the appliance as shown.
• The regulator is to be fitted to the manifold inlet at the rear of the
appliance and the connection is sealed using a tape or jointing
compound suitable for gas connections. The consumer piping is
then connected to the inlet of the regulator, either
1. directly, or
2. using a hose assembly and in accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1
(High level connection) together with the supplied elbow.
The elbow is fitted to the inlet of the regulator and oriented
to allow the hose to hang downward. The connection thread
between the regulator and elbow is sealed using a tape or
jointing compound suitable for gas connections.
This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage.
LPG CONVERSION
GAS COOKTOP MODELS
A conversion kit is included with the product for Universal LPG usage.
The conversion kit contains 5 or 7 injectors (refer to LPG conversion
table) and 1 LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit UNIVERSAL
LPG is required:
1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner crowns to
access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted injectors
with the appropriate injectors, as supplied. Refer to injector orifice
table for injector sizes. The injector size is stamped on the side of
the injector.
2. Unscrew the top hat nut from the regulator. The top hat nut and
control pressure spring assembly will disengage as an assembly.
3. Unscrew the threaded pin from top hat.
4. Upturn threaded pin, so spring is free and screw pin back into the
top hat until firm.
5. Refit the top hat nut assembly to the regulator ensuring that it
is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set for connection to
LPG.
6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection check for
leaks using soapy water. Each hotplate valve should be turned
on, one at a time, and the injector hole blanked off for several
seconds.
7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by connecting a
manometer to the pressure test point located on the side of the
regulator body adjacent to the outlet.
With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure:
• when all burners of the appliance are operating at maximum,
• when the smallest burner of the appliance is operating at
minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not vary from
the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa by more than ±0.52kPa.
8. If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily then
check the following points:
• If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the inlet
pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream
