THINGS TO NOTE

This appliance is designed to be fitted in cabinets of the recommended dimensions as shown (Fig.

l2).

If your cabinet interior dimension is between 565-570mm the oven may still be fitted. However a minor modification to the cabinet will be required to reduce the aperture size down to 560-565mm. To allow the appliance to be securely screwed into the cabinet.

The dimensions given provide adequate air circulation around the unit within the cabinet, ensuring compliance with BS EN60-335.

Enquiries regarding the installation of the cooker point, if required, should be made to your Regional Electricity Company to ensure compliance with their regulations.

The cooker socket switch should be outside the cabinet but within 2m of the appliance to make it accessible to switch off the appliance in case of an

lemergency.

To protect the hands, wear gloves when lifting the oven into its housing.

There are three possible ways to connect your appliance. In each case the appliance should be operated using at least 6mm² twin core and earth PVC insulated multicore cable. Please choose from the most appropriate after reading the different methods:-

a)By connecting the appliance to a cooker point (having a double pole isolating switch with at least 3mm contact separation in all poles and neutral) and protected with a fuse or miniature circuit breaker at your mains fuse box.

Subject to Regional Electricity Companies regulations if you wish to connect the oven and hob to the power supply you may use one of the following two methods:-

b)By connecting the appliance together with a hob directly to a cooker point(s). Having a double pole isolating switch with at least 3mm contact separation in all poles and neutral.

PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF OVEN

Make sure the cabinet is the correct size for the appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 2).

If the size is between 565-570mm, then the cabinet should be modified so that at the screw fixing points the recommended dimension of at least 560-565mm is maintained. The modification should ideally be localised to ensure that after screw fitment the oven is securely fixed into position.

The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly securing it to the wall or floor. If necessary, make arrangements to ensure the shelf upon which the oven will rest is

llevel.

When the appliance is installed ensure a minimum gap of 2mm is maintained between the trim on the bottom edge of the appliance and any corresponding door/ panel underneath.
