POSITIONING
If the range is placed on a base, ensure measures are taken
to prevent the product slipping off the base
Make sure that the wall surface behind the Cooker is noncombustable (will not catch fire). A plastered or tiled wall is ideal.
Where a painted surface is adjacent, a fire retardent paint surface
is recommended. Wallpaper, wood, or fabric should not be used
behind or next to the cooker.
Any adjoining wall surface situated within 200mm from the edge
of any hob burner must be suitable non-combustible material for
a height of 150mm for the entire length of the hob. Any combustible
construction above the hotplate must be at least 650mm above
the maintop.
INSTALLATION
PROVISION FOR VENTILATION
The room where the Cooker is installed should have permanent
ventilation as follows:
Ventilation must be in accordance with AS5601- 2004 - Gas
Installations. In general, the appliance should have adequate
ventilation for complete combustion of gas, proper flueing and to
maintain temperature of immediate surroundings within safe limits.
- Do not install in a bed-sitting room, a bathroom or shower room.
If there is another fuel burning appliance in the same room, a
higher level of ventilation will be required, you should consults
" the safety requirements".
In addition to the above, during prolonged use, opening a window
in the same room is recommended. This will avoid the build up
of excessive moisture and condensation.
POSITIONING
Important: Fix the chain located next to the gas connection on
both sides of the cooker to the wall to prevent the cooker from
tilting. Both chains must be securely fixed.
Make sure that the wall surface behind the Cooker is noncombustable (will not catch fire).
Where a painted surface is adjacent, a fire retardent paint surface
is recommended. Wallpaper, wood, or fabric should not be used
behind or next to the cooker.
Clearances to combustible materials
Any adjoining wall surface (side or rear) situated within 200mm
of any hob burner must be a suitable non-combustible material
from the edge for a height of 150mm for the entire length
of the cooker.
Any combustible construction above the cooker must be at least
650mm above the maintop. Ensure that a power and gas supply
are nearby. The Cooker should be located carefully so that the
heat produced by it has plenty of space to escape. The diagram
below shows an ideal configuration.
No part of any adjoining wall surface can be made of combustible
materials. The protection of combustible materials
required by Clause 5.12.1.1 of AS5601-2004 is the fixing of 5 mm
thick ceramic tiles to the surface or attaching fire resistant
material to the surface and covering with sheet metal with a minimum
thickness of 0.4 mm.
Clearances to non- combustible materials
If the cooker is being fitted next to cupboards or adjoing wall
surfaces, which are within 200mm from the edge of the hob
burner and of a suitable non-combustible material as specified
in AS5601, then ensure that a distance of at least 6cm is left
between the edge of the cooker and the non-combustible
material. This gap is to allow plenty of space for the heat
produced by the cooker to escape on each side of the cooker.

TO FIX THE COOKER TO THE REAR WALL
WARNING - For safety reasons and to prevent tipping of the appliance,
these stabilizing means must be installed.
The cooker is equipped with 2 chains fixed on each side at the rear of
the cooker near the top (see Fig. A). The chains are fitted with spring
clips which must be clipped to the screw eyes provided with the cooker.
Install the screw eyes as follows :
1. Drill four 6mm holes (position 1 - 2 - 3 - 4) in the wall
as in Fig. A.
2. Insert part R into the holes then screw in the screw eyes part
G see Fig. B.
Note: If the part provided is not suitable for the wall material please
use an appropriate device to ensure secure holding of the screw
eyes to the wall.
3. Bring the cooker near the wall and clip the chains on the
screw eyes as in Fig. C.
IMPORTANT: If the cooker is moved for any reason
(e.g. maintenance) resulting in the cooker being unclipped from the
wall, the cooker must be re-clipped to the wall at the completion of
the task.
