Positioning the Cooker

The diagrams below show the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfaces.

The cooker should not be placed on a base.

The hotplate surround should be level with, or above, any adjacent work surface. Above hotplate level a gap of 75mm should be left between each side of the cooker and any adjacent vertical surface.

For non-combustible surfaces (such as unpainted metal or ceramic tiles) this can be reduced to 25mm.

A minimum space of 650mm is required between the top of the hotplate and a horizontal combustible surface.

*Any cooker hood should be installed in accordance with the hood manufacturer’s instructions.

Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear of the appliance should be heat, splash and steam resistant. Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration. We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by normal use of the cooker to any material that de-laminates or discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room temperature.

For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the cooker.

We recommend a gap of 910mm between units to allow for moving the cooker. If a flush fit is required, fit the cooker up to the unit at one side then fit the unit the other side. Do not box the cooker in; it must still be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and servicing. The cooker should not be placed on a base. A clearance of 130mm is required if the cooker is near a corner of the kitchen to allow the oven doors to open.

Unpacking the Cooker

Do not take any packaging off the cooker until it is directly in front of the place it is to be installed (unless it will not fit through a door in its outer packaging).

Cut the banding straps and lift the cardboard box off the cooker, LEAVING THE COOKER STANDING ON THE BASE PACKAGING. See the loose unpacking sheet.

Moving the Cooker

The cooker is very heavy. Take great care.

We recommend two people manoeuvre the cooker. Ensure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker around. You will need the levelling tool.

From the back tilt the cooker forward and remove the rear half of the polystyrene base pack.

Repeat from the front and remove the front half of the

LOWER THE TWO REAR ROLLERS.

First fit the levelling tool on the hexagonal adjusting nut as shown below.

Make 10 complete (360º) turns clockwise. (This means turning and removing the levelling tool 20 times).
