Introduction
Your new appliance is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions detailed in this booklet.
To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.
The cooker is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.
When the cooker is first used an odour may be emitted, this will cease after a period of use.
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 temporary finish on oven liners and elements and also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.
*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:
(a)Has been used solely in accordance with the Users Instruction Book.
(b)Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate attached to this equipment.
(c)Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the authorised employee or agent.
(d)Has been correctly installed.

The height of the cooker can be adjusted by means of adjustable feet in the plinth (900mm - 930mm). Adjust the feet by tilting the cooker from the side. Then install the product into position.
NOTE: This appliance must not be fitted on a platform.
The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced 500mm apart. The space either side need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It can be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in a corner setting. It can also be used free-standing.
Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.
Before moving your cooker check that it is cool, and switch off at the cooker control unit.
Movement of your cooker is most easily achieved by lifting the front as follows: Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements.
Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy.
Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not damaged.
Splashplate optional, apply to Parts Department (see Back Cover for contact number.)
