INSTALLATION

UNPACKING

After unpacking your cooker, make sure that you remove all the packing from the oven and grill, and any stickers from the oven door and the hob. Examine your cooker for any damage, particularly the hob glass. Make sure there are no chips or cracks. If there is any damage to your cooker or anything is missing, please contact your supplier for advice. If the hob is cracked the cooker must not be connected to the supply, and no part of it may be used.

SITING / MOVING THE COOKER (See Fig. 1)

Your cooker is heavy, so be careful when moving or positioning it. Do not try to move the cooker by pulling on the doors or handles.

Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved by lifting the front as follows. Open the Grill/Oven door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements or oven interior furniture. Great care should be taken when moving your cooker to avoid damage to soft floor coverings. Your Creda cooker is designed to fit between 600mm deep cabinets, spaced a minimum of 550mm apart. It can also be used freestanding, with a cabinet to one side, in a corner setting or with its back to a wall.

The cooker is of type X with regard to protection against overheating of surrounding surfaces as defined in BS EN60335-2-6: 1991. As such, adjacent side walls which project above hob level must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm (6"). Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should be at least 650mm (251/2") above the cooker hob. We do not recommend positioning the cooker below wall cupboards, as the heat and steam from the cooker may cause damage to the cupboard and its contents.

Excess steam from the oven, vents out at the back of the cooker, so the wall behind the cooker needs to be resistant to the steam or condensation.

Whatever the position, remember to leave enough room for the cooker to be pulled out for cleaning and service, and make sure that the vents in the back panel of the cooker are not blocked.

COOKER HEIGHT

Your cooker must stand on a flat surface so that the hob is perfectly level, and the cooker is stable and cannot be rocked.

If required, a height adjustment kit is available to increase the height to the hob from 900mm up to a maximum of 914mm. This is available on application to Creda Spare Parts Department.
