Installation
The cooker must be installed by a competent and Gas Safe Registered Engineer (in the UK) and in compliance
with local safety and building regulation safety standards. This cooker can be installed next to a cabinet.
Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure) and the
adjustment of the appliance are compatible. The adjustment conditions for this appliance are stated on the label
(or data plate).
If the cooker is installed adjacent to furniture which is higher than the gas hob, a gap of at least 100 mm must
be left between the side of the cooker and the furniture unless non-combustible materials are used, which then
allows this distance to be reduced to 20 mm.
The furniture walls adjacent to the cooker must be suitable for cookers to be placed next to them in order to
avoid ungluing or deformations of the veneered synthetic material.
The cooker should be located in a kitchen, a kitchen/diner or bed-sitting room in accordance with the latest
editions of BS6172, BS5440-2 and BS6891, but not in a room containing a bath or shower. Please refer to the local
legislation/regulations to ensure location is permitted.
Flammable materials such as curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the appliance or within 500 mm of
the sides.
Do not place next to a refrigerator.
This cooker must NOT be placed on a pedestal or base.
It is essential that the cooker is positioned as stated or freestanding ensuring the distances to flammable
materials etc. are still observed.
Any cooker hoods must be installed according to the requirements of the cooker hood instruction/installation
manual but no less than 650 mm.
Any cupboards placed directly above the cooker must be no less than 700 mm.
