    Reseal pipe connection with aluminium tape. When installing a AGA DC5 which is venting to the left hand side, care must always be taken to ensure the vent pipe is fully lagged (using insulation provided). Where the vent pipe passes behind the hotcupboard, ensure that the mains cable is kept away from the hot surface of the vent pipe.
  • Page 12: Room Vented Models

    It is recommended that this model is fitted in conjunction with a cooker hood. The AGA oven venting outlet is located on the top of the AGA between the two hotplates., and is designed for venting the moisture from the ovens. The cooker hood should be positioned not less than the minimum height as recommended by the manufacturer, from the top of the AGA.
  • Page 13: Oven Venting Systems

    OVEN VENTING SYSTEMS See Fig. 8 The appliance oven venting pipe can be achieved up to a maximum length of 6 metres, through an outside wall. Great care must be taken in all-timber houses. If the oven vent pipe passes through combustible material, there must be an air gap of at least 25mm around the pipe and preferably wrapped with insulation material.
  • Page 14: Hotcupboard Installation

    NOTE: The AGA DC5 hotcupboard should arrive with the top plate in a jacked up position. This is to allow the complete appliance to be slid onto its plinth when alongside the AGA DC3 without the top plates clashing. The hotcupboard top plate should then be wound down to its correct height once the appliance is in its final position.
  • Page 15 2. Position the plinth alongside the AGA Dual Control leaving no gap between the two plinths (See Fig. 11). Check with a spirit level that the plinth level is correct, and also check height differential between the hotcupboard plinth and Dual Control plinth is correct (11mm). If necessary, use shims in each corner to level the plinth.
  • Page 16 4. Run a straight edge along the front of the AGA Dual Control plinth, to ensure the front face of both plinths sit squarely against the straight edge. (See Fig. 13) When satisfied both plinths sit squarely, jacking screws can be tightened until they just make contact with the AGA Dual Control plinth, and locking screws can now be tightened.
  • Page 17 Fig. 15 DESN 516552 7. The hotcupboard top plate is set 5mm higher than the AGA Dual Control top plate. This is to prevent damage to the enamel during installation. Lower the top plate using the adjusters (See Figs. 16 & 17).
  • Page 18 9. Slide the complete handrail over the left hand, right hand and centre fixing studs. Once the assembly has been fitted to the AGA appliance, fit the handrail endcaps (ensuring the handrail is evenly spaced at each end). The endcaps should be carefully pushed into place until they sit flush with the outside face of each bracket.
