GAS SAFETY INSTALLATIONS & USE REGULATIONS.
It is law that all gas appliances are installed by competent persons in
accordance with the current edition of the above regulations. It is in
your interest and that of safety to ensure compliance with the law.
In the UK, CORGI registered installers work to safe standards of
practice.
The cooker must also be installed in accordance with BS 6172: 1990.
Failure to install the cooker correctly could invalidate the warranty
liability claims and could lead to prosecution.
The room containing the cooker should have an air supply in
accordance with BS 5440: Part 2: 1989.
The room must have an openable window or equivalent; some rooms
may also require a permanent vent. If the room has a volume
between 5 and 10m
unless it has a door which opens directly to outside. If the room has a
volume of less than 5m
area. If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same room,
BS 5440 Part 2: 1989 should be consulted to determine air vent
requirements.
The cooker must be fitted with a stability device firmly secured to the
fabric of the building. The back of the cooker has a bracket, which
can be used to affix a chain.
Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appli-
ance flexible connection to BS 669. If used with LPG the hose should
be suitable for L.P.G. and capable of withstanding 50mbars pressure.
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

After unpacking your cooker, make sure that you remove all packing
from the oven and grill, and any stickers from the oven and the hob.

tested, re-fit the original injector.
Fit the burner caps, enamelled discs and pan supports. With
reference to the User's Instructions; check that the hotplate burners
