A hole in the gas inlet valve bracket can be used to engage a stability chain.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY

670

300

Connection to the cooker should be made with an approved appliance flexible connection to BS 669. A length of 0.9 to 1.25m is recommended. The length of hose chosen should be such that when the cooker is in situ, the hose does not touch the floor.

Those cookers converted to use on LPG should be connected with a hose suitable for LPG and capable of withstanding a pressure of 50 mbar.

An adaptor backplate should be fitted within the shaded area shown, to allow the cooker to be pushed fully to the wall and to ensure that the flexible hose is only likely to come into contact with areas at the rear of the cooker that do not exceed a temperature rise of 70°C.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. CONNECT TO A 230-240V A.C. SUPPLY ONLY.

Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible wall socket which is adjacent to but not directly above, and not more than 1.25m away from the appliance and capable of electrical isolation.

The mains lead should be routed such that it cannot touch hot parts of the cooker i.e. the back panel above a height of 650mm from the floor.

Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug as outlined below.

NOTE: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent danger.

IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED

The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to a three pin plug of not less than 13 amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a fuse which is approved to B.S. 1362.

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code:

GREEN AND YELLOW	- EARTH	Yellow to
BLUE	- NEUTRAL	Green &
		Earth
BROWN	- LIVE
		to Live
		Brown
	Blue to	13 Amp
	Neutral	Fuse
	Cord
	Clamp

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the

letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow.

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug.

As the appliance must be earthed, do not use 2-pin sockets outlets, if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size i.e. 1.0mm2 cross sectional area PVC cable, available from our parts department (see Back Cover).

IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED

In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied an ASTA approved fuse to BS1362 must be fitted.

NOTE: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and fitted. A new fuse cover can be obtained from your local Electricity Board. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.

Make sure that the cable does not become trapped when pushing the cooker into position.

WARNING. If the electric supply fails to this appliance you must not use the grill or ovens.
