2. INSTALLATION OF THE APPLIANCE
It is the law that all gas appliances are installed by
competent persons.
Corgi gas installers are approved to work to safe and satisfactory
standards. All gas installation, servicing and repair work must be in
accordance with the gas safety regulations 1984 (installation and use) as
amended 1990.
This unit is equipped with a type Y fire protection, and may be set
against walls that are higher than the hob.
Make sure there is a minimum of
750 mm between the hot plate flames
and any shelf that may be installed directly above them.
2.1 Electrical connection
Check that the voltage and dimensioning of the supply line correspond to
the characteristics shown on the plate fixed to the rear protective cover
of the appliance.
This plate must never be removed.
If the appliance is hooked-up to the supply by means of a fixed
connection, install a multipolar cut-out device on the line, with contact
opening distance equal to or greater than 3 mm, located near the
appliance and in an easily reachable position.
Hook-up to the supply may be fixed or with plug and socket. In the latter
case the plug and socket must be suitable for the cable employed and
conform with the regulations in force. Regardless of the type of
connection, earthing of the appliance is absolutely obligatory. Before
connection make sure that the supply line is suitably earthed. Avoid the
use of reducers, adapters or shunts.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons
or things caused by non-observance of the above prescriptions or by
interference with any part of the appliance.
