Positioning the Cooker

Checking the parts

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

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.

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.

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.
