Installation
All instruction on the following pages must be carried out
by a competent person (corgi registered) in compliance
with gas safety (installation and use) regulation 1984.
Important: disconnect the cooker from the electrycity
and gas supply when any adjustment, etc.
Positioning
Important: this unit may be installed and used only in
permanently ventilated rooms according to the British
Standards Codes Of Practice: B.S. 6172/B.S. 5440, Par. 2
and B.S. 6891 Current Editions. The f ollowing requirements
must be observed:
a) The cooker should not be installed in a bed sitting room
with a volume of less than 20m3. If it is installed in a room
of volume less than 5m3 an air vent of effective area of
110cm2 is required, if it is installed in a room of volume
between 5m3 and 10m3 a supplementary airvent area of
50cm2 is required, if the volume exceeds 11m3 no airvent
is required. Howev er , if the room has a door or a window
which opens directly to the outside no air vent is required
even when the v olume is between 5m3 and 11m3.
b) During prolonged use of the appliance you may consider
it necessary to open a window to the outside to improve
ventilation.
c) If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same
room, B.S.5440 Part 2 Current Edition, should, be
consulted to determine the requisite air vent requirements.
Levelling your appliance (only on a fe w models)
Y our cook er is supplied with feet for le velling the appliance.
If necessary , these feet can be screwed into the housings
in the corners of the cooker base.
50°C above room temperature. For proper installation of
the cooker, the following precautions must be taken:
a) The appliance can be placed in a kitchen, dining room
or bedsit, but not in a bathroom.
b) All furniture around the appliance must be placed at
least 200 mm from the top of the cooker, should the
surface of the appliance be higher than the worktop of
this furniture. Curtains should not be placed behind
the cooker or less than 200 mm away from the sides
of the appliance.
c) Any hoods must be installed according to the require-
ments in the installation manual for the hoods themselves.
d) If the cooker is installed beneath a wall cabinet, the
latter must be situated at a minimum of 420 mm above
the hob. The minimum distance between the worktop
and kitchen units made of combustible material is 700
mm (Fig. A).
e) The wall in direct contact with the back panel of the
cooker must be made of non-flammable materials.
f) The cooker is fitted with a safety chain that must be
attached to a hook, secured to the wall behind the
appliance.
Note: some models can have their gas connection
inverted. It is important to make sure the safety chain
is always situated on the side which corresponds to
the hose holder (Fig. B).

Installation of the cooker
The appliance can be installed next to furniture units which
are 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 the
back panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
Fig. A Fig. B
Gas connection
The cooker should be connected to the gas-supply by a
corgi registered installer. During installation of this product
it is essential to fit an approved gas tap to isolate the supply
from the appliance for the conv enience of any subsequent
removal or servicing. Connection of the appliance to the
gas mains or liquid gas must be carried out according to
the prescribed regulation in force, and only after it is
ascertained that it is adaptable to the type of gas to be
used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the
paragraph headed “Adaptation to diff erent gas types”. On
some models the gas supply can be connected on the left
or on the right, as necessary; to change the connection,
reverse the position of the hose holder with that of the cap
and replace the gasket (supplied with the appliance). In
the case of connection to liquid gas, by tank, use pressure
regulators that conform to the regulation in force. The gas
supply must be connected to the left of the appliance. Be
sure that the hose does not pass through the rear of the
cooker touching hot parts.

Important: make sure the supply pressure conforms with
the values shown in the table entitled “Caracteristics of the
burners and nozzles”. When the cooker is installed
between cabinets (recessed), the gas connection must
be effected by an approved flexible hose with bayonet
fitting (BS 669 Current Edition). The gas inlet for the
cookers is a threaded G 1/2 gas female fitting.
Connecting the gas supply
To make the connection, a flexible hose should be used
corresponding to the current gas regulations which are:
• the hose must never be at any point in its lenght in contact
with the “hot” parts of the cooker;
• the hose must never be longer than 1,5 metre;
• the hose must not be subject to any tension or torsional
stress and it must not have an y excessively narrow curves
or bottlenecks;
• the hose must be easy to inspect along its entire length
to check its condition;
• the hose must always be in good condition, never attempt
to repair.
Important: the installation must comply with gas safety
(installation and use) regulations 1984. In all cases for the
above, b y low , a qualified, corgi approv ed engineer must be
called for installation.
Electrial connection
Pow er supply voltage and frequency: 230-240V a.c. 50/60 Hz.
Note: the supply cable must be positioned so that it never
reaches at any point a temperature 50°C higher than the
room temperature. The cable must be routed a way from the
rear vents. Should you require it, you ma y use a longer cable,
howeve r, you must ensure that the cable supplied with the
appliance is replaced by one of the same specifications in
accordance with current standards and legislation.
Y our appliance is supplied with a 13 amp fused plug that can
be plugged into a 13 amp socket f or immediate use. Bef ore
using the appliance please read the instructions below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERA TIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY A QU ALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and
you should wish to remov e it to add a cable extension or to
re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please
ensure that either:
• the plug is replaced by a fused 13 amp re-wireable plug
bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or:
• the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet,
controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which
is accessible without moving the appliance.
Please note: for appliances with a rating greater than 13
amp (eg: electric hob , double ovens and freestanding electric
cookers etc.) the mains cable must be wired into a cooker
output point with a rating of 45 amp. In this case the cable is
not supplied.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, y ou make the
pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into
a socket. Instructions for connecting cab le to an alternative
plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Green & Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
If the colours of the wires in the mains lead do not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
Connect Green & Y ellow wire to terminal marked “E” or 6
or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.
Connect Brown wire to terminal marked “L” or coloured Red.
Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.
If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13
amp fuse. A 15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp
fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.
If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your
machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.
How to connect an alternative plug:
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
BLUE “NEUTRAL” (“N”)
BROWN “LIVE” (“L”)
GREEN AND YELLOW “EARTH” (“E”)
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse
to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until
a replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct
colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour
that is embossed in words on the base of the plug.
Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest
Service Depot.
Disposing of the appliance
When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug by
cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug body
and dispose of it as described above.
