INSTALLATION

Positioning the Cooker

Fig.7.1 shows the minimum recommended distance from the
cooker to nearby surfaces.
The cooker should not be placed near the fridge or on a base.
The hotplate surround should be level with, or above, any
5
adjacent work surface.
The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets
spaced over 600 mm apart. 5 mm clearance either side of the
appliance is recommended to allow removal of the cooker for
servicing.
For non-combustible surfaces (such as unpainted metal or
ceramic tiles), this can be reduced to 25 mm.
A minimum space of 650 mm is required between the top of
the hob and a horizontal combustible surface.
*Any cookerhood should be installed in accordance with the
hood manufacturer's instructions.
**Any splashback must be fitted in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.
It is recommended that there is at least 20 mm space between
the back cover of the cooker and the wall, for air circulation
(Fig.7.2).
Adjacent kitchen furniture must be heat resistant to 90 °C.

Levelling the Cooker

The cooker stands on four levelling legs. These can be
adjusted 0 mm to 30 mm by turning the legs clockwise.
It is recommended that you use a spirit level on a shelf in one
of the ovens to check for level.

Moving the Cooker

On no account try and move the cooker while it is
n n
plugged into the electricity supply.
The cooker is very heavy, so take great care.
n n
Do not try to lift or move the cooker by pulling on
n n
the door handles.
We recommend that two people manoeuvre the cooker.
Make sure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed,
to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker
around.

Gas Connection

This must be in accordance with the relevant standards.
The flexible hose (not supplied with the cooker) must be
in accordance with the relevant standards. Hoses may be
purchased at most builders' merchants.
The gas supply needs to terminate with a down-facing
bayonet.
The connector is located just below the hotplate level at the
rear of the cooker. If in doubt contact your supplier.
Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and each
connection is different, it is difficult to give precise dimensions.
