Moving Your Appliance, For Your Safety | Electrolux EKG5542 specification

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE

You may damage some soft or badly fitted floor coverings when you move the appliance. The floor covering under the appliance should be securely fixed so it does not ruck up when you move the appliance across it. Alternatively you could remove the floor covering. This appliance is heavy and care must be taken when moving it. Do not try to move the appliance by pulling the door handles.

To move the appliance, open the grill door. Raise the appliance off its front feet by lifting it from inside the oven. Pull the appliance forward. When you replace the appliance push it back to the stop and make sure there is the same gap at each rear corner.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Do not try to disconnect the appliance from the gas supply if the supply pipe does not have a bayonet connection, as described in the installation instructions. If this is the case contact the person who installed the appliance.

LOCATION OF APPLIANCE

This appliance must not be installed in a bed-sitting room of volume less than 20m3 or in a bathroom, shower room or garage. It is essential that the appliance is positioned as Fig 1a. Shelves, wall cabinets and cooker hoods must be fitted a minimum of 750mm directly above the top of the hotplate (or greater for cooker hoods if recommended by manufacturers instructions) and 400mm above the hotplate when fitted in line with the outside of the appliance. If the units are intended to be fitted adjacent to the appliance but less than 400mm above the hotplate, then a minimum space of 50mm must be maintained between the sides of the unit and the appliance (See Fig 1b). Curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the appliance or within 150mm of the sides of the hotplate. If fitted next to or between two base units a minimum space of 2mm must be left between each unit and the sides of the appliance. The levelling feet fitted to the appliance will achieve a nominal height to hotplate of 900mm + 20mm.

Note: - L.P.G. cookers MUST NOT be installed below ground level i.e. in a basement or aboard any boat, yacht or other vessel.

LEVELLING THE APPLIANCE

Adjustment to suit floor conditions or height is obtained by rotating clockwise or anti clockwise the feet at the front and rear of the appliance. A spirit level should be placed on one of the shelves to confirm the appliance is correctly levelled.
