or in a bathroom or shower room.
Windows and permanent vents should therefore not be blocked or
removed without first consulting a Corgi gas installer.
Failure to install appliances correctly is dangerous and could lead
to prosecution.
The room must be kept adequately ventilated to remove the heat and
humidity produced by cooking; after prolonged use in particular, open a
window or increase the speed of any fans installed.
2.3 Connecting to natural and LPG gas
(Please see connection diagram)
Make the connection to the appliance using
flexible bayonet style hose in accordance to B.S.
669. The hose connection at the rear of the
appliance has a 1/2" BSP internal thread. Please
use seal C between the flexible connection L and
the appliance supply tube B. When making the
connection, make sure that no stress of any kind
is applied to the cooker and that the hose does
not touch any sharp edges.
If connecting to LPG the bayonet hose must
have red bands on it.
When installation is complete, check for any
leaks with a soapy solution and never with a
naked flame.
Take care that the hose is not crushed or
damaged.
