Instructions for the Installer

2. INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE

It is the law that all gas appliances are installed by authorised persons. Clearance around the cooker must comply with the requirements of AS5601.

2.1 Positioning and levelling the appliance

The appliance is equipped with wheels and adjustable feet to simplify the positioning procedure. To use the front wheels, screw in the foot as shown here, so that the appliance rests on the front wheels. However, to allow the appliance to be moved freely it must be lifted at the back. To do this, proceed as follows:
use a 10 socket wrench to screw in the 2 hex nuts underneath the oven compartment: this raises the appliance either to level it or to allow it to be moved around. Once all procedures are complete, retighten the front feet and the hex nuts to set the cooker stable and level.

2.2 Electrical connection

Make sure that the power line voltage matches the specifications indicated on the rating plate located inside the storage compartment. This rating plate must never be removed.
The connection terminals are located at the rear of the appliance. For electrical connections see following diagram. To access, remove the rear cover.
The connection to the mains shall be done conforming to the regulations in force. Check that the power line is adequately grounded. Do not use reducers, adapters or shunts. On the power line, install an omnipolar cut­off device with contact cut-off distance greater than or equal to 3 mm, located in an easily accessible position near the unit.

2.3 Gas connection

This appliance is suitable for installation with Natural Gas or ULPG (propane). Refer to page 12 for the relevant burner pressure and appropriate injector sizes. When the appliance is to be connected to Natural Gas then the pressure regulator supplied must be fitted to the gas inlet. A test point (for checking the gas pressure) is supplied either with the regulator or as a separate fitting in the case of ULPG (propane) appliances. Connection of the appliance to the gas supply must be in accordance with the requirements of AS5601. A ½” BSP connector at the inlet is recommended and the gas supply line to the appliance must be of adequate length to allow sufficient withdrawal of appliance for service or disconnection and be:
1. annealed copper pipe or;
2. flexible hose according to AS/NZ1869 & be at least Class “B”, 10 mm diameter.
The cooker must be installed with provision to allow the gas to be turned off and disconnected for servicing and removal of the appliance as required from the gas supply. Before the cooker is operated make certain all relevant parts are placed in the correct position. When the installation is completed the installation connections of cooker will require to be leak tested, the burner operating pressure and flame checked and adjusted. Warranty service calls do not cover these adjustments! To check the operating pressure of the appliance it is recommended at least 2 large size burners are used. Ensure appliance is secured to wall when installation is completed. N.G. The regulator supplied must be fitted to the ½ BSP thread at the rear of the appliance. An approved manual shut-off valve must be installed. The N.G. regulator must be checked and adjusted to 1.0kPa after installation.
ULPG: Can be connected to the inlet fitting directly. The pressure must be checked to ensure it is operating at 2.75kPa. A separate test point fitting must be installed between the piping & the appliance for the pressure to be checked to ensure it is operating at 2.75kPa.

2.4 Room ventilation

2.5 Clearance above and around domestic cookers

Caution – This cooker may only be installed and operated in rooms permanently ventilated in accordance with current regulations. For proper operation of a gas appliance it is essential for the air necessary for combustion of the gas to be able to flow naturally into the room. Air must flow directly into the room through openings in its outside walls. This (these) opening (s) must have a free passage cross-section of at least 100 cm2, or 200 cm2 for appliances not equipped with gas safety device. These openings must be constructed so that they cannot be obstructed indoors or outdoors, and should preferably be close to the floor on the side opposite to the combustion gas discharge point. If it is not possible to make the openings in the room where the cooker is installed, the necessary air may be taken from an adjoining room, proveded it is not a bedroom or a room with fire risk.

Instructions for the Installer
REQUIREMENTS
1 Overhead clearances – (Measurement A)
Range hoods and exhaust fans shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between the highest part of the hob of the cooking appliance 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 hob shall be protected for the full width and depth of the cooking surface area in accordance with Clause
5.12.1.2. However, in no case shall this clearance to any surface be less than 450 mm.
2 Side clearances – (Measurements B & C)
Where B, measured 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 Clause 5.12.1.2 to a height C of not less than 150 mm above the hob for the full dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area. Where the cooking appliance is fitted with a ‘splashback’, protection of the rear wall is not required.
3 Additional requirements for Freestanding and Elevated Cooking
Appliaces – (Measurements D & E) Where D, the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to a horizontal combustible surface is less than 200 mm, then E shall be 10 mm or more, or the horizontal surface shall be above the trivet. See insets above.
NOTES
1 Requirement 3 does not apply to a freestanding or elevated
cooking appliance which is designed to prevent flames or the cooking vessels from extending beyond the periphery of the appliance.
2 The ‘cooking surface area’ is defined as that part of the
appliance where cooking normally takes place and does not
include those parts of the appliance containing control knobs. 3 For definition of hob, see Clause 1.4.64. 4 For definition of trivet, see Clause 1.4.109. 5 Consideration is to be given to window treatments when
located near cooking appliances. See Clause 5.3.4.

3. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS

Before performing any cleaning or maintenance work, switch off the power supply to the appliance.
The cooking hob of the cooker is preset for natural gas at a pressure of
1.0 kPa. In the case of functioning with other types of gas the burner nozzles must be changed and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas taps. Replace the burner nozzles as indicated in the table of the gas to be used.

Changing nozzles 3.1

1. Extract the grids and remove all the caps and flame-spreader crowns;
2. unscrew the burner nozzles with a 7 mm socket wrench;
3. proceed with replacing the burner nozzles in accordance with the table for the gas in question.

flame diffuser rings back in place.
After adjusting for use of a gas other than the gas used for testing the appliance, replace the gas setting label on the appliance with the label for the new gas. The label is supplied in the bag with the nozzles.

4.1 Adjusting the minimum setting for town gas and natural gas

Light the burner and turn it to the minimum setting regulator screw inside or beside the tap rod (depending on the model) until an even minimum flame is obtained. Put the knob back in place and check the stability of the burner flame (the flame must not go out when the knob is turned quickly from the maximum to the minimum setting). Repeat the operation on all the gas taps.
4.2
To adjust the minimum level when using bottled gas, the adjuster screw inside or beside the tap rod must be turned fully clockwise (depending on the models). The diameters of the bypasses for each individual burner are stated in point "3.2 Burner and Nozzle Data Tables".
Place the splash-back on the hob, aligning the holes A with the holes
Fix the splash-back to the hob by tightening the screws C.
