ArtNo.110-0004 110 Cooker min spacings
The hotplate surround should be level with, or above,
any adjacent work surface. Above hotplate level a
gap of 75mm should be left between each side of the
cooker and any adjacent vertical surface.
For non-combustible surfaces (such as unpainted
metal or ceramic tiles) this can be reduced to 25mm.
A minimum space of 650mm is required between
the top of the hotplate and a horizontal combustible
surface.

ArtNo.110-0003 - Min positions above cooker
*Any cooker hood should be installed in accordance
with the hood manufacturer's instructions.
Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear
of the appliance should be heat, splash and steam
resistant. 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 cooker
to any material that de-laminates or discolours
at temperatures less than 65°C above room
temperature.
For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted
immediately behind the cooker.

We recommend a gap of 1110mm between units to
allow for moving the cooker. If a flush fit is required,
fit the cooker up to the unit at one side then fit the
unit the other side. Do not box the cooker in; it must
still be possible to move the cooker in and out for
cleaning and servicing.
A clearance of 130mm is required if the cooker is near
a corner of the kitchen to allow the oven doors to
open. The actual opening of the doors is slightly less
but this allows for some protection of your hand as
you open the door.
Unpacking the Cooker
Do not take any packaging off the cooker until it is
directly in front of the place it is to be installed (unless
it will not fit through a door in its outer packaging).
Cut the banding straps and lift the cardboard box off
the cooker, leaving the cooker standing on the base
packaging. See the loose unpacking sheet.
Moving the Cooker
The cooker is very heavy. Take great care.
We recommend two people manoeuvre the cooker.
Ensure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or
removed to prevent it being disturbed when moving
the cooker around. You will need the levelling tool.
From the back tilt the cooker forward and remove the
rear half of the polystyrene base pack.
Repeat from the front and remove the front half of
the poly base. Pull the drawer out to its furthest point.
