To allow ease of servicing and cooker mobility, an approved flexible 4ft (1.2 metres) hose should
be fitted. Supply piping should not be less than R 1/2 (1/2” BSP). Connection is made to the R
1/2 (1/2” BSP) female threaded entry in the inlet block located just below the hotplate level on
the rear right hand side of the cooker.
The gas bayonet connector must be fitted to the wall in the shaded area dimensioned in Fig. 4.
Take into account that it must be possible to pull the cooker forward sufficiently for servicing.
Ensure flexible hose is not trapped between cooker back panel and rear wall. Ensure hose is
routed within the shaded area and away from shielded oven vent. The flexible hose must be in
accordance with the relevant standards.
IMPORTANT: THE GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION AT THE WALL MUST NOT PROJECT OUT
FROM THE WALL BYMORE THAN 45MM, SO THAT IT DOES NOT FOUL WITH THE BACK
OF THE COOKER.
Check for gas tightness after connecting the appliance.
FLEXIBLE HOSE
The flexible hose must be suitable with the type of gas being used. LPG hoses carry a red stripe,
band or label. If in doubt ask your supplier.
