Positioning the Cooker

The diagrams show the minimum recommended distance
from the cooker to nearby surfaces (Fig.7-1).
The cooker should not be placed on a base.
Above hotplate surround should be level with, or above,
any adjacent work surface. A gap of 75 mm should be left
between each side of the cooker ABOVE the hotplate level
and any adjacent vertical surface.
For non-combustible surfaces (such as unpainted metal or
ceramic tiles) this can be reduced to 25 mm.
A minimum space of 800 mm is required between the top of
the hotplate and a horizontal combustible surface.
Fig.7-2 shows the suggested clearance above the cooker.
* Any cookerhood 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.
We recommend a gap of 905 mm between units to allow for
moving the cooker. Do not box the cooker in – it must still
be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and
servicing.

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
We recommend two people manoeuvre the cooker. Make
sure that the oor covering is rmly xed, or removed to
prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around.
To help you, there are two levelling rollers at the back and
two screw-down levelling feet at the front.
Removing the Drawer
Pull the drawer right out.
Push the ends of the plastic clips – down on the left-hand
side, up on the right-hand side – to release the catches
holding the drawer to the side rails (Fig.7-3). At the same
time pull the drawer forwards and away from the side rails.
For safety's sake push the drawer runners back out of the way
and put the drawer somewhere safe until the installation is
complete.
