Choosing a location
When planning the location and preparing the installation
structure for this appliance note the following:
• This appliance must be installed in accordance with
Australian Standard AS 5601 and in accordance with local
authority.
• Requirements in these instructions for clearances to
combustible materials also apply to combustible materials
that have non-combustible materials attached to their
surface.
• The minimum clearance from combustible construction
materials to all sides of the appliance is 450mm.
• The minimum clearance to a vertical wall above bench level
that is made from combustible material is 450mm.

be avoided some shielding may be necessary.
Natural gas requirements
• The enclosure must be constructed so that access can be
gained to the natural gas regulator at all times.
