Important safety instructions
Operation
Keep children away from the cooktop when it is in use.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children, or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should
have a responsible person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that
they can use the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
If the electrical supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised person.
Ensure that the electrical connection plug is accessible after installation.
This appliance should be connected to a circuit that incorporates an isolating switch
providing full disconnection from the electricity supply.
Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the flame and the saucepan as
this may cause serious damage to your cooktop.
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop burners.
Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench as this can deflect heat onto
your benchtop and damage the surface.
Do not let large saucepans, frying pans or woks push any other pans aside. This could make
them unstable or deflect heat onto your benchtop and damage the surface.
Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning this cooktop.
Saucepan handles may be hot to touch. Ensure saucepan handles do not overhang other
gas burners that are on. Keep handles out of reach of children.
Do not stand or place heavy objects on this appliance.
After use, ensure that the knobs are in ‘OFF’ position.
This appliance shall not be used as a space heater, especially if installed in marine craft or
caravans.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the
room in which it is installed. Ensure the kitchen is well ventilated. Keep natural ventilation
holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example
opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
After having unpacked the appliance, check to ensure that it is not damaged.
In case of doubt, do not use it and consult your supplier or a professionally qualified technician.
Packing elements (i.e. plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, packing straps, etc.) should not be
left around within easy reach of children, as these may cause serious injuries.
Some appliances are supplied with a protective film on steel and aluminium parts. This film
must be removed before using the appliance.

Installation instructions
Dimensions and clearances
This cooktop has been designed and constructed in accordance with the following codes and
specifications:
AGA101 (AS 4551) Approval Requirements for Domestic Gas cooking appliances
AS/NZS 60335-1 General Requirements for Domestic electrical appliances
AS/NZS 60335-2-6 Particular Requirements for Domestic electrical cooking appliances
AS/NZS 1044 Electromagnetic Compatibility Requirements.
The installation shall comply with the dimensions in Figs. 1 and 2, bearing in mind the fol-
lowing requirements:
A minimum clearance of 20 mm has to be kept between the base of the cooktop and the top
of an underbench appliance or a shelf. To ensure this clearance, mount the spacers supplied
with the appliance, as shown in Fig. 3.
Overhead clearances - In no case shall the clearance between the highest part of the cooktop
and a range hood be less than 600 mm, or for an overhead exhaust fan, 750 mm. Any other
downward-facing combustible surface less than 600 mm above the highest part of the cook-
top shall be protected for the full width and depth of the cooking surface area in accordance
with local regulations in force. However, in no case shall this clearance to any surface be less
than 450 mm.
Side clearances - Where the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical
combustible surface is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected in accordance with
local regulations in force to a height of not less than 150 mm above the cooktop for the full
dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area.
Where the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to any horizontal combustible
surface is less than 200 mm, the horizontal surface shall be more than 10 mm below the
surface of the cooktop, or the horizontal surface shall be above the trivets (see requirement for
vertical combustible surfaces above).
Protection of combustible surfaces - Local regulations in force specify that, where required,
protection shall ensure that the surface temperature of the combustible surfaces does not
exceed 65 °C above ambient. To comply with this requirement satisfactorily, fix 5 mm-thick
ceramic tiles to the surface or attach fire-resistant material to the surface and cover with sheet
metal (minimum thickness 0.4 mm).

Installation instructions
Fastening the installation brackets (Fig. 4)
Each cooktop is provided with an installation kit including brackets and screws for fastening
the cooktop to benches from 20 to 40 mm thick.
Turn the cooktop upside down, place it on a soft surface and fasten the brackets “F and R” to
the appropriate socket holes, without tightening the screws “B” for the moment (see Fig. 4).
Fastening the cooktop (Fig. 4)
1
Spread the sealing material “C” out along the edge of the cutout, making sure that the junctions
overlap at the corners.
2
Insert the cooktop into the cutout and position it correctly.
3
Adjust the position of the brackets “F and R” and tighten screws “B” to secure the cooktop
firmly in position.
4
Using a sharp cutter or trimmer knife, trim the excess sealing material around the edge of the
cooktop. Take care not to damage the workbench.
