Introduction
AUS
To help you make the best use of your cooker,
PLEASE READ THIS BOOKLET CAREFULLY.
Your new cooker is guaranteed and will give lasting
service. The guarantee is only applicable if the
cooker has been installed in accordance with the
Installation Instructions.
The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use
and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any
other installation.
When first using the cooker ensure that the room is
well ventilated (e.g. open a window or use an
extractor fan) and that persons who may be
sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is
suggested that any pets be removed from the room
until the smell has ceased. This odour is due to any
temporary finish and also any moisture absorbed by
the insulation.
Our policy is one of continual improvement in design
and development, therefore strict accuracy of
illustrations and descriptions cannot be guaranteed.

Oven Timer Operation
The oven timer (only ventilated Oven) offers you the
following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
AUTOMATIC COOKING
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished
or is just about to finish cooking on your return to
the oven. This will ensure the food has not cooled
down and does not require reheating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes
into the oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator.
Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed
thoroughly before it is put in the oven.
4. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if
there is to be a delay period. Stews prepared by
frying the meat and vegetables should be cooked
as soon as possible.
5. Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,
for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked
automatically if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow
method, so that the delay period is kept to a
minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth
in certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed
start should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle
during the delay period, so it is best to add these
ingredients just before serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by
coating in fat or tossing in water to which lemon
juice has been added, prior to placing food in the
oven.
10.Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too
full to prevent boiling over.
11.Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a
container to prevent the loss of liquid during
cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12.Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.

Hotplate
The hotplate has one dual control wok burner, one
large high speed burner, three normal simmering
burners and one small simmering burner. The dual
control wok burner consists of a smaller inner and a
larger outer burner that can operate either together or
separately. Use of the two burners together with
large pans on maximum setting gives a very high
input and reduces cooking times with respect to
conventional burners. Use of the two burners
together provides a more uniform distribution of heat
on the bottom of the pan. Cookware of all sizes can
be used above the dual control wok burner. For
small pans it is recommended that only the inner
burner is used.
The knob situated below the symbol on
the fascia panel operates the outer burner.
The knob situated below the symbol on
the fascia panel operates the inner burner.
The two normal simmering burners on the right hand
side of the hotplate are oval in form and can be
turned through 90°. This makes the hotplate more
flexible in how it can be used.
For cooking fish or heating oval cookware use the
two burners with their longest sides at 90° to the
front of the hotplate.
When using the griddle or for heating rectangular,
square or large cookware use the two burners with
their longest sides parallel to the front of the
hotplate.
For medium size cookware use any of the two
burners in any orientation.
All pans should be placed centrally over the burners.
TO USE THE HOTPLATE
1. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn
the control knob of the chosen burner anti-clockwise
to the large flame symbol. Continue to press the
ignition button until the spark lights the gas. When
operating the dual control burner there is a separate control knob for the inner and outer burners. Check
that the gas has been lit. If the burner fails to ignite
try again. If the burner fails to ignite after 3 attempts,
wait a few minutes for the gas to disperse before
making any further attempts. If the burner still fails
to ignite, a match or lighting device can be used,
but care must be taken. If the problem persists,
contact place of purchase or their appointed agent
for service. If the flame has excessive yellowing,
or appears to lift off the burner ports, or makes a
loud noise, turn the burner off and call your service
agent.
2. Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the desired
setting. Only turn the control knob between the large
flame symbol and the small flame symbol for
adjusting the setting.
3. To turn off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to
the O position.
Lighting the burners for the first time
If the appliance is being used for the first time, or if
it has not been used for a long period of time, it may
be necessary to purge the gas lines of excess air
before you can successfully light the burners.
To do this, turn each burner to High for 10-15
seconds and press the ignition button several times.
If the burner does not light, repeat this procedure
twice more. Wait 1-2 minutes for any gas build up to
disperse before allowing any further gas flow.
DO NOT use mis-shapen pans which may be
unstable.
DO NOT use round base woks directly on the pan
supports.
Always use cookware with a flat base. Do not use
pans which are unstable or which have a warped or
damaged base.
Ensure the pot sits securely on the trivet and is
centred above the burner.
Each burner is fitted with a spark ignition electrode
for lighting the gas.
To ensure rapid lighting of the burners every time
they are used, the electrodes must be kept clean
and dry. Remove any food spillage or cleaning
materials from the electrodes using a small nylon
brush such as a tooth brush.
Access to the ignitor can be achieved by lifting off
the loose burner parts carefully when the burners are
cool.
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner controls and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burners for at least 1 minute.
If aluminium based pans are used, a silvery deposit
may appear on the top edge of the pan support
fingers. See 'Care and Cleaning' section for further
information.

Models with Hob Gas Burner Safety Devices to
Prevent Leaks (only available on certain models)
These models can be identified by the presence of
the device itself.
! Since the hob burners are equipped with a safety
device, you must hold the control knob in for about 3
seconds after the burner has been lighted to allow
the gas to pass until the safety thermocouple has
heated.
For the hotplate to work in the most efficient way
possible and in order to save on the amount of gas
consumed, it is recommended that only pans which
have a lid and a flat base are used. They should
also be suited to the size of the hotplate.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP FAT
FRYING
1. Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil
or fat.
2. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating
or cooling period.
3. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
4. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower
it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in
particular will cause frothing and spitting if added
too quickly.
5. Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free
from streaks of oil or fat.
HOW TO DEAL WITH A FAT FIRE
1. Do not move the pan.
2. Turn off the hotplate burners.
3. Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth
to extinguish the fire. Do not use water or a fire
extinguisher as the force of it may spread the
burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.
4. Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving
it.

Griddle
A non-stick griddle is supplied for use over the two
burners on the right hand side of the hob.
The griddle is made of cast iron and the surface is
covered with a special nonstick finish. To protect the
non-stick coating never use metal cooking utensils
as they may scratch the surface. Wooden or heat
resistant plastic utensils may be used. Do not use
saucepans on the griddle plate.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST THE
GRIDDLE PLATE BE USED OVER ANY OTHER
HOTPLATE BURNERS.
USE OF THE GRIDDLE
The griddle may be used with either or both of the
burners on, depending on the food being cooked.
1. Secure the griddle above the two simmer burners,
making sure that the support feet are located
correctly on the pan support fingers.
2. Press the ignition button and then push in and turn
the control knob(s) of the burners anticlockwise to
the large flame symbol. Continue to press the
ignition button until the spark lights the gas. Preheat
the griddle plate for approximately four minutes.
3. Place the food directly on the griddle plate. However
when cooking drier foods eg. drop scones the
griddle plate can be lightly greased.
4. The controls can be left at high for the sealing of
foods or turned down to a lower heat setting
depending on what food is being cooked. NB. A
gentle heat is all that is required for the majority of
griddling. Once the griddle plate is up to temperature it maintains the cooking temperature on a
medium/low setting.
5. Cook the food for the required time, which will
depend on the type of food being cooked.
6. To turn off, push in and turn the control knob(s)
fully clockwise to the O position.
7. Allow the griddle plate to cool before cleaning.
AUS
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner controls and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burners for at least 1 minute.

METHOD
1. Mix all the ingredients together.
2. Knead lightly.
3. Roll out thinly and cut with a pastry cutter to suit
requirements.
4. Cook on a pre-heated griddle for 3-4 minutes on
each side.
Twin Grill
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME
HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS USED.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
GRILLING SHOULD NEVER BE UNDERTAKEN
WITH THE GRILL DOOR CLOSED.
The grill control is designed to provide variable heat
control of either the full width of the grill or just the
grill half. Turning the control knob clockwise will
switch on the full width and turning anticlockwise will
switch on just the grill half.
A gentle flow of air will be blown from underneath the
control panel when the grill is in use.
If the fan fails to blow air beneath the control
panel when the grill is in use, you should contact
your service engineer immediately (see back
page).
Using the grill pan kit
The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to
facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle
securely before use:
1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so the external
‘hooks’ embrace the that edge of the pan (fig. 1)
2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits
exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2)
and holds the pan from the bottom.
The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan.
Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The
best results are achieved by placing the oven rack
on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into
the grill pan will make the collection of grease
particles more efficient and prevent the formation of
smoke.
TO USE THE GRILL
1. Open the top grill door
2. Turn the grill control knob clockwise to 4 for full
width grilling or anticlockwise for half width grilling.
3. Slide the grill pan toward the back of the grill
compartment until it stops.
4. Leave the control at 4 for toast and for sealing and
for fast cooking of foods. For thicker foods requiring
longer cooking, turn the control to a lower setting
after sealing on both sides at 4.
Grilling can be started from cold but for best results
preheat for approximately 2 minutes.
DO NOT cover the grill pan or grid with aluminium
foil as this can hold fat, intensify the heat
and create a fire hazard.

Fan Oven
AUS
The heating of the oven is achieved by turning the
control knob clockwise to the required temperature
as recommended in the temperature charts. The
pilot light will immediately come on and will
automatically go off and on during cooking as the
oven thermostat maintains the correct temperature.
It should be noted that at the end of a cooking
period there may be a momentary puff of steam
when the oven door is opened, this will disperse in a
few seconds and is a perfectly normal characteristic
of an oven with a good seal.
Since a fan oven heats up more quickly and
generally cooks food at a lower temperature than a
conventional oven, pre-heating the oven is often
unnecessary. However, foods such as bread,
scones, Yorkshire pudding do often benefit from
being placed in a preheated oven.
The ‘Oven Cooking’ charts are a guide only, giving
approximate cooking temperatures and times. To
suit personal taste and requirements, it may be
necessary to increase or decrease temperatures by
10°C.
Unless otherwise indicated in the charts, food is
placed in a cold oven ie. without preheating.
If food is placed in an already hot oven, the
suggested cooking time should be reduced,
depending on the type and quantity of food being
cooked.
OVEN POSITIONS
Since the distribution of heat in the fan oven is very
even, most foods will cook satisfactorily on any shelf
position, but the shelves should be evenly spaced.
To ensure even circulation do not use meat pans
larger than 390 x 300mm (15ins x 12ins) and baking
trays no larger than 330 x 255mm (13ins x 10ins),
these should be positioned centrally on the oven
shelf.
- Do not fit shelves upside down.
- Never use more than 3 shelves in the oven as air
circulation will be restricted.
- Food or cooking utensils should not be placed on
the floor of the oven.
To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rod shelves which
are not in use should be removed from the oven.
NB. Recipes in cookery books give times and
temperatures for cooking in ordinary ovens. The fan
oven makes it possible in most cases to:
- Reduce the recommended temperatures 25°C
(45°F).
- Reduce the recommended time by approximately
10 minutes per hour.
- Make pre-heating the oven unnecessary for certain
foods.
TO PREPARE MEAT AND POULTRY FOR
ROASTING IN YOUR FAN OVEN
a. Wipe the meat or poultry, dry well and weigh it.
Meat which has been stored in a refrigerator should
be allowed to come to room temperature before
cooking and frozen meat or poultry must be
completely defrosted before placing in the oven.
b. The weight of any stuffing used should be added
before calculating the cooking time.
c. Place meat / poultry in the main oven meat pan
supplied with your cooker. Small joints weighing
less than 1.75kg (31/2lb) should be roasted in a
smaller meat pan / tin - or they may be 'pot roasted'
- a small joint in a large meat pan causes
unnecessary oven splashing and evaporation of
meat juices.
d. Additional fat should not be added, except for veal,
very lean meat or poultry which can be 'larded' with
bacon fat or brushed very sparingly with cooking
oil or melted fat.
e. Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be dusted
lightly with seasoned flour to give a crisp outer
surface. The skin of duck and goose should be
pricked to release excess fat during cooking and
the rind of pork should be scored, brushed lightly
with oil and rubbed with salt to give crisp crackling.
f. Meat and poultry wrapped in, or covered with a
tent of aluminium foil will be juicy and tender.
Roasting bags offer the same advantage. Always
follow the manufacturer's packing instructions and
remember to reduce the temperatures given for
conventional ovens by approximately 25°C and the
time by approxi mately 10 minutes per hour.
g. Potatoes for roasting only require to be brushed
with cooking oil or melted fat.
h. It is not necessary to baste when roasting in an
electric oven and stock or liquid should not be
added to the meat pan since this only causes
unnecessary soiling, steam and condensation.
TEMPERATURE AND TIME
When all three shelves are used to cook large
quantities of food for home freezing or parties, it
may be necessary to increase the cooking times
given in the charts by a few minutes to allow for the
loss of heat due to the extra time taken to load the
oven, and the larger mass of food. Baking trays
should allow an equal gap on all sides of the oven.
14
FROZEN MEAT AND POULTRY
Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted
slowly, preferably in a domestic refrigerator (allowing
5-6 hours per 450g, 1lb), or at room temperature
(allowing 2-3 hours per 450g, 1lb). Frozen meat or
poultry must be completely defrosted before placing
in the oven. It is essential to wash thoroughly and
cook meat and poultry immediately after defrosting.
Conventional Oven
OVEN CONTROL
Heating of the oven is achieved by turning the
control clockwise to the required oven temperature
scale on the control panel, as recommended in the
temperature charts. The pilot light will immediately
come on and off during cooking as the thermostat
maintains the correct temperature.
The ‘Oven Cooking’ charts are a guide only, giving
approximate cooking temperatures and times. To
suit personal taste and requirements, it may be
necessary to increase and decrease temperatures
by 10°C.
The oven is fitted with 'heat clean' liners and two rod
shelves. The heating of the oven is achieved by
turning the control knob clockwise to the required
temperature as recommended in the temperature
charts. The pilot light will immediately come on and
will automatically go off and on during cooking as
the oven thermostat maintains the correct
temperature.
It should be noted that at the end of a cooking
period there may be a momentary puff of steam
when the oven door is opened. This will disperse in
a few seconds and is a perfectly normal
characteristic of an oven with a good seal.
The correct positioning of food is indicated on the
temperature charts.
TO PREPARE MEAT FOR ROASTING IN YOUR
CONVENTIONAL OVEN
Wipe the joint, dry well with a clean cloth, kitchen
tissue etc. and weigh it. Meat which has been stored
in a refrigerator should be allowed to come to room
temperature for approximately 30 minutes before
cooking and frozen meat or poultry must be
completely defrosted beforehand.
Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be lightly
floured, but pork should be scored, brushed lightly
with oil and rubbed with salt to give crisp crackling.
Place joint in the main oven meat pan supplied with
your cooker. (Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg
(31/2lb) should be roasted in a smaller meat pan /
tin - or they may be 'pot roasted' - a small joint in a
large meat pan causes unnecessary oven splashing
and evaporation of meat juices). Additional fat
should not be added, except for veal, very lean
meat or poultry which can be 'larded' with bacon fat
or brushed very sparingly with cooking oil or melted
fat. It is not necessary to baste, when roasting in an
electric oven and liquid / stock should not be added
to the pan.
For optimum cooking performance, there must be
clearance between meat pan and oven sides.
The meat pan must be placed lengthways in the
oven to allow for air circulation.
TIMES AND TEMPERATURES FOR ROASTING
The secret of succulent, tender meat, is not to roast
it too quickly at too high a temperature.
Best results are obtained when roasting is carried
out at a low temperature. When a lower temperature
is used, the joint loses less weight, is more tender
(too high a temperature causes meat to be tough
and dry) and the splashing of fat onto oven interior
is reduced to a minimum.
When a complete meal is being cooked in the oven,
cooking time may need to be increased and
temperature may need to be raised for
approximately the last 30 minutes of the cooking
period (for instance when cooking Yorkshire pudding
to serve with roast beef ). The suggested times and
temperatures given below should be used as a
guide, but may vary according to:-
1. Whether you prefer meat rare, medium or well done.
2. The size and shape of your joint.
(a) A short thick joint requires a longer cooking
period than a long thin joint.
(b) A small joint under 1.5kg (3lbs) takes longer
per 450g (1lb) cook in the time given for 'minutes'
per 450g (1lb) without the 'minutes' over added.
(c) Boned/rolled and stuffed joints take longer to
cook through than those with a bone. The weight
of stuffing should be added to the oven ready
weight of the meat / poultry to calculate roasting
times.
NOTE: Remember to switch off the oven control
after cooking is finished. If the door of the
oven is left open for long periods of time
with the control switch ON, then the grill
element will become hot. The correct positioning of food is indicated in the temperature charts.

The Slow Cook Setting
AUS
With the fanned oven thermostat set to 90° the oven
can be used for slow cooking - The 'Slow Cook'
setting.
PREPARING FOOD FOR SLOW COOKING
1. All dishes cooked by the 'Slow Cook' setting should
be cooked for a minimum 6 hours. They will 'hold'
at this setting for a further hour but marked
deterioration in appearance will be noticed in some
cases.
2. Joints of meat and poultry should be cooked at
170° for 30 minutes before turning to the 'Slow Cook'
setting and never be cooked lower than the middle
shelf position.
3. Joints of meat over 6 lbs (2.7kg) and poultry over 4
lbs 8oz (2 kg) should not be cooked using the 'Slow
Cook' setting.
4. Always stand covered joints on a rack over the
meat tin to allow good air circulation.
5. A meat thermometer should be used when cooking
pork joints and poultry. The internal temperature of
the food should reach at least 88°C.
6. This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and
stuffed poultry.
7. Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the
boil before putting in the oven.
8. Cover casseroles with foil and then the lid to prevent
loss of moisture.
9. Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
10.Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small
pieces.
11.Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of
the cooking time.
12.Use the zones of heat in the oven, e.g. meringues
and milk puddings can be cooked lower in the oven
whilst other dishes requiring greater heat can be
cooked above them.
13.Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5 hours cooking
and should be included in day cooking sessions,
when they can be observed from time to time.
14.Dried red kidney beans must be boiled for a
minimum of ten minutes after soaking, before
inclusion in any dish.

SPACE FOR FIXING
The diagram shows minimum clearances between
the cooker and adjacent walls, cupboards etc. The
dimensions of the appliance and the location of
connection points are provided in the Technical Data
section. It is recommended that the adjacent kitchen
surfaces should be capable of withstanding
temperatures of 65°C. Also, the following must be
observed:
" The appliance should be installed next to
cabinetry which is no taller than the top of the
cooker hob.
" The wall in direct contact with the back panel of
the cooker must be made of non-flammable
material. During operation of the cooker, the back
panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
50°C above room temperature.
" Kitchen cabinets installed next to the cooker that
are higher than the top of the hob, must be at
least 600 mm from the edge of the hob itself.
The following minimum clearances to combustible
materials must be observed:
" Minimum clearance from edge of burner to side
wall must be 200 mm.
" Minimum clearance from edge of burner to rear
wall must be 200 mm.
Range hoods
Range hoods and overhead exhaust fans must be
installed according to manufacturers' instructions
but in no case shall clearance from hob burners be
less than 600 mm for range hoods and 750 mm for
overhead exhaust fans.
If the hood is installed below a wall cabinet, the
latter must be at least 700 mm (millimetres) above
the surface of the hob.
UNPACKING THE COOKER
Unpack the components from inside the grill and
oven. Check that the following parts are present:
Meat pan Pan supports (3)
Grill pan, grid and handle LPG conversion kit
Loose burner parts (14) Oven shelves (4)
Aluminium burner bodies (6) Griddle
Wok Stand Literature pack
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.

Installation
LEVELLING
Your cooker is heavy, so it would be advisable for
two people to move it. The cooker is fitted with rear
wheels and will slide into position easily. Movement
of your cooker is most easily achieved 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 or oven interior furniture,
and then lift and slide back at the same time.
Your cooker must stand on a flat surface so that the
hob is perfectly level, and the cooker is stable and
cannot be rocked, this is easily achieved by
adjusting the three feet which are under the front of
the cooker and the 3 castors under the rear of the
cooker, if necessary.
Installing the shelves
When inserting the shelves onto the guide rails,
ensure the raised section is towards the rear of the
oven. This prevents food from falling off the back of
the tray.
Safety Chain
In order to prevent
accidental tipping of
the appliance, for
example by a child
climbing onto the open
oven door, the supplied
safety chain must be
installed.
Ensure the chain is
secured to the rear wall
of the oven, and attach
the chain to a hook or screw secured to the wall
behind the appliance.
NOTE: If the cooker is to be placed on a base,
precautions must be taken to prevent it from
slipping off the base.
The cooker is designed to match the depth of
standard 600mm worktops.
An adaptor backplate should, therefore, be fitted
within the shaded area shown to allow the cooker to
be pushed fully to the wall. If a forward facing
backplate is used, it must be chased into the wall.
This appliance is suitable for use with either a
flexible connection or rigid copper connection.
Check The Gas Type
WARNING: Before installation, check that the gas
type (natural gas or LPG/Propane) of the cooker is
suitable for the gas type available to the installation.
It is extremely dangerous to use the wrong gas type
with any appliance, as fire or serious injury can
result.
This cooker is supplied from the factory already set
for Natural Gas. To convert the cooker to LPG (or
back to Natural Gas from LPG), follow the directions
later in this section.
Fit regulator supplied for Natural Gas (if applicable)
at rear of appliance, and as close as practicable to
the appliance.
It is recommended that an isolating valve and union
be fitted, to enable simple disconnection for
servicing. These are to be in an accessible location.
Gas Connection
Either a rigid metal pipe with fittings in compliance
with the standards in force must be used for
connecting to the nipple union (threaded ½"G male
fitting) situated at the rear of the appliance to the
right (fig.8), or an approved flexible hose of class B
or D.
Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket
(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced.
If a flexible hose is used, it should be as short as
possible with a maximum length of 1.5 metres;
" The flexible connection must be approved to
class B or D of AS/NZS1869 as a minimum.
" it should not be bent, kinked or compressed;
" it should not be in contact with the rear wall of the
appliance or in any case with parts which may
reach a temperature of 50°C;
" it should not come into contact with pointed parts
or sharp corners;
" it should not be subject to any pulling or twisting
forces;
" it should be easy to inspect along its entire length
in order to be able to check its condition.
" The supply connection point must be accessible
AUS
27
AUS
with the appliance installed.
" The inner diameters of the pipe are as follows:
8 mm for LPG;
13 mm for Natural Gas.
Upon completion of installation, check the gas
circuit, the internal connections and the taps for
leaks using a soapy solution (never a flame). Also
check that the connecting pipe cannot come into
contact with moving parts which could damage or
crush it. Make sure that the natural gas pipe is
adequate for a sufficient supply to the appliance
when all the burners are lit.
