view from the rear
Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted and
each connection is different it is diffi cult to give precise
dimensions. Ideally the house supply bayonet should
be in the shaded area shown in the diagram. The hose
should be fi tted so that both inlet and outlet connections
are vertical so that the hose hangs downwards in a 'U'
shape. A 3ft (915mm) hose will need to be connected
from the side
For Natural Gas the fl exible hose must be in accordance
with B.S.669.
For LP Gas it should be capable of 50mbar pressure,
70C temperature rise and carry a red stripe, band or
label.
If in doubt contact, your supplier.
Screw connect the threaded end of the hose into the gas
inlet in the underside of the connector block on the back
of the cooker.
After completing the gas connection, check the cooker
is gas sound with a pressure test. When checking
for gas leaks do not use washing up liquid - this can
corrode. Use a product specifi cally manufactured for leak
detection.
Pressure testing

point on the gas connection block.
Connect the pressure gauge. Turn on and light one of
the hotplate burners.
For Natural Gas the pressure should be 20mbar.
For Propane the pressure should be 37mbar.
