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 75mm 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 25mm.
A minimum space of 650mm is required between the top of
the hotplate and a horizontal combustible surface.
Fig.7-2 shows the suggested clearances above the cooker.
*Any cooker hood 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 910mm 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.
A clearance of 130mm is required if the cooker is near a
corner of the kitchen to allow the oven doors to open
(Fig.7-3). The actual opening of the doors is slightly less but
this allows for some protection of your hand as you open the
door.

Moving the Cooker

On no account try and move the cooker while it is

plugged into the electricity supply.

The cooker is very heavy, so take great care.
We recommend that two people manoeuvre the cooker.
Ensure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, 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. You will need the
levelling tool.
Remove the polystyrene base pack. From the front, tilt the
cooker forward and remove the front half of the polystyrene
base (Fig.7-4). Repeat from the back and remove the rear half
of the polystyrene base.
