Installation

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

MAINS CONNECTION

Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate, which is situated on the rear panel. The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as a NICEIC registered contractor to a suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A (30A double-pole control switch installations found in older properties are acceptable) and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm, which should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations. The control unit must be within 2 metres of but not directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of an emergency.

The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2, minimum. Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains cable must pass through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.

Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between cabinets.

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.

SITING THE COOKER

The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced 500mm apart. The space either side need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It can be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in an angled corner setting. It can also be used freestanding. Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.

MOVING THE COOKER

Before moving your cooker, switch off at the cooker control unit, ensure that it is cool.

Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements.

Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy. Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not damaged.

RADIO INTERFERENCE

This appliance conforms to EN 55014 regarding suppression of radio and television interference.
