Gas Connection
The room containing the appliance should have an air 
supply in accordance with B.S. 5440 part 2.
1. All rooms require an opening window or equivalent, and
some rooms will require a permanent vent as well.
2. For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent of 100cm² is
required.
3. If the room has a door that opens directly to the outside,
and the room exceeds 10m³ no air vent is required.
4. For room volumes between 5m³ and 10m³ an air vent of
50cm² is required.
5. If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same
room B.S. 5440 part 2 should be consulted to determine 
the air vent requirements.
6. The appliance must not be installed in a bed sitting room
of less than 20m or in a bathroom or shower room.
We recommend checking that the appliance 
is properly set up for the type of gas 
distributed. The threaded ½" gas connection 
pipe is located at the rear on the right hand 
side of the appliance.
The cooker is designed to match the depth of standard 
600mm worktops. An adaptor back plate should, therefore, 
be fitted within the shaded area shown to allow the cooker 
to be pushed in fully and chased to the wall.
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.
The temperature rise of areas at the rear of the cooker 
that are likely to come in contact with the flexible hose do 
not exceed 70°C.
