Installation of the cooker
The cooker is prepared with protection degree against
excessive heating of type X, the appliance can therefore be
installed next to cabinets, provided the height does not exceed
that of the hob. If the cooker is placed touching walls or sides
of neighbouring cabinets, these must be capable of
withstanding a temperature rise of 60°C above room tempe-
rature. Levelling feet supplied with the cooker, can be fitted
to the cooker to accomodate uneven floors. See fitting
instruction on feet packing. For a correct installation of the
cooker the following precautions must be followed:
a) The cooker may be located in a kitchen, a kitonen/diner
or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower room.
b) The furniture units next to the cooker, that is higher than
the working boards, must be placed at least 110 mm from
the edge of the board. Curtains must not be fitted
immediately behind the cooker or within 110 mm. of the
sides of the cooker.
c) The hoods must be installed according to the
requirements in the hood handbook.
d) Wall cabinets may be fitted in line with the sides of the
base units, providing that the lower edge of the wall cabinet
is a minimum of 420 mm. above the worktop. The
minimum distance combustible material kitchen units can
be fitted directly above the worktop is 700 mm. (see Fig.
A)
e) The wall in contact with the back of the cooker must be of
flameproof material.
f) The cooker is fitted with the a safety chain that must be
attached to a hook, secured to the wall behind the

Connecting the gas
The cooker should be connected to the gas-suply by a corgi
registered installer. During installation of this product it is
essential to fit an approved gas tap to isolate the supply from
the appliance for the convenience of any subsequent removal
or servicing. Connection of the appliance to the gas mains
or liquid gas must be carried out according to the prescribed
regulation in force, and only after it is ascertained that it is
adaptable to the type of gas to be used. If not, follow the
instructions indicated in the paragraph headed “Adaptation
to different gas types”. In the case of connection to liquid
gas, by tank, use pressure regulators that conform to the
regulation in force. The gas supply must be connected to the
right of the appliance. Be sure that the hose does not pass
through the rear of the cooker touching hot parts.
Important: make sure the supply pressure conforms with
the values shown in the table entitled “Caracteristics of the
burners and nozzles”.
When the cooker is installed between cabinets (recessed),
the gas connection must be effected by an approved flexible
hose with bayonet fitting (BS 669 Current Edition). The gas
inlet for the cookers is a threaded G 1/2 gas female fitting.
Connecting the gas supply
To make the connection, a flexible hose should be used
corresponding to the current gas regulations which are:
· the hose must never be at any point in its lenght in contact
with the “hot” parts of the cooker;
· the hose must never be longer than 1.5 metre;
· the hose must not be subject to any tension or torsional
stress and it must not have any excessively narrow curves
or bottlenecks;
· the hose must be easy to inspect along its entire lenght
to check its condition;
· the hose must always be in good condition, never attempt
to repair.
Important: the installation must comply with gas safety
(installation and use) regulations 1984. In all cases for the
above, by low, a qualified, corgi approved engineer must be
called for installation.
