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.

(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

Installation
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Electrical connection
Electric cookers come without a power supply cable. The cooker is designed to operate on an electricity supply which
conforms to the electrical data shown on the Rating Plate. The cooker can be connected to the mains only after removing
the back panel of the cooker itself with a screwdriver.
N.B.: the following installation procedure must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The electrical installation must
comply with the IEE Regulations, Building & local By-Lays.
For the installation of the feeding cable carry out the following operations:
1 Open the terminal board by inserting a screwdriver into the side tabs of the
cover. Use the screwdriver as a lever by pushing it down to open the cover (see
diagram).
2 Loosen the cable clamp screw and remove it, using a screwdriver as a lever
(see figure).
3 Remove the wire contact screws L-N-
, then fasten the wires under the screw
heads, respecting the colour code: Black/Blue (N), Red/Brown (L) and Bare Wire/
Yellow-Green (
).
Once the connections have been made, tighten all the terminal screws fully.
Fasten the supply cable in place with the clamp and close the cover of the
terminal board.

(900mm - 915mm). 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.

Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front
edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements.
