Positioning the Oven

The oven can be installed under a worktop (Fig. 9.1) or at
high level in a tall kitchen unit and depending on the type of
installation it is designed to fit into a standard 560 mm or 600
mm wide oven housing.
The oven is 595mm across the trims and an unrestricted
opening of 560mm minimum depth is needed, as measured
from the front of the cabinet door to the rear of the housing.
The worktop and any associated hob should be fitted BEFORE
installing this oven.
It is recommended that if installing a built-in oven directly under
the hob then there should be a minimum air gap of 20 mm
between the oven and the bottom of the hob. Failure to maintain
a suitable clearance may impair the performance of the hob.
Ensure that air can flow freely around the housing area. If the
oven is being installed into a fully enclosed built-under oven
housing unit it may be necessary to cut a small slot in the top
of the plinth fitted under the unit. Cut a section 400 mm wide
and a minimum of 15mm high to allow air to pass under the
unit. Alternatively cut a section 400 x450mm in the base of
the carcass.
Check the appliance is electrically safe when you have finished.

Failure to allow adequate ventilation to the appliance may
result in overheating or damage to adjacent units and could
invalidate the guarantee.
Surfaces of furniture and walls adjacent to the appliance
should be heat, splash and steam resistant. All cabinet doors
must be at least 4mm from the oven at all points.
Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are
particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration. We
cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by normal
use of the appliance to any material that de-laminates
or discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room
temperature.
When placing the oven in the housing, do not use the oven
door or handle as a lever for lifting the oven as damage may
result.
If you lower the oven door, you will see 4 screw holes, 2 on
each side of the oven. The oven should then be secured to
the housing by fitting screws into these holes.
The housing should not be free standing but be

secured to the wall and/or adjacent fittings.
