Windows and permanent vents should therefore not be blocked or removed without first consulting a
Corgi gas installer.
Failure to install appliances correctly is dangerous and could lead to prosecution.
DO NOT install LPG version below ground level. This does not exclude installation into a room, which
equates to a basement on one side of the building, but open to ground level on the opposite side.
3.6
Gas-powered devices for home use, which are not connected to a conduit for the evacuation of
combustion products, must not cause a concentration of carbon monoxide that could pose a health
risk to the persons exposed in relation to the time of exposure.
We recommend checking that the appliance is properly set up for the type of
gas distributed. The threaded ½" gas connection pipe is located at the rear
on the right hand side of the appliance.
The cooker is designed to match the depth of standard 600mm worktops. An adaptor back plate
should, therefore, be fitted within the shaded area shown to allow the cooker to be pushed in fully
and chased to the wall.
Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appliance flexible connection to
BS 669. A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of hose chosen should be such that
when the cooker is in situ, the hose does not touch the floor.
The temperature rise of areas at the rear of the cooker that are likely to come in contact with the
flexible hose do not exceed 70°C.
