Positioning The Cooker; Moving The Cooker - Rangemaster 110 Gas User's Manual & Installation Instructions

Check the appliance is electrically safe and gas sound when you have nished.

Positioning the Cooker

Fig.7-1 shows the minimum recommended distance from the
cooker to nearby surfaces.
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 650 mm is required between the top of
the hotplate and a horizontal combustible surface.
Fig.7-2 shows the suggested clearances above the cooker.
*Any cookerhood should be installed in accordance with the
hood manufacturer's instructions.
**Any splashback must be tted in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions. Allowance should be made for the
ue trim, which is tted to the cooker hob.
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 1110 mm between units to allow
for moving the cooker. Do not box the cooker in – it must
be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and
servicing.
Make sure that the wall above and behind the cooker is at
and free of protrusions. To avoid problems opening the lid
fully, the side trim should t ush to the wall and no part of
the wall should overhang the cooker (Fig.7-3).
If the cooker is near a corner of the kitchen a clearance of
130 mm is required to allow the oven doors to open (Fig.7-4).
The actual opening of the doors is slightly less but this allows
for some protection of your hand as you open the door.

two screw-down levelling feet at the front.
