Location of the appliance
This appliance must not be installed in a bed-sitting room

or garage. It is essential that the appliance is positioned
as stated below (see fig.1) i.e. shelves, wall cabinets
and cooker hoods must be fitted a minimum of 787mm
directly above the top of the hotplate and 400mm above
the hotplate when fitted in line with the outside of the
appliance. If the units are intended to be fitted adjacent
to the appliance but less than 400mm above the hotplate,
then a minimum space of 100mm must be maintained
between the sides of the unit and the appliance. Curtains
must not be fitted immediately behind the appliance or

+20mm.
L.P.G. cookers MUST NOT be installed below ground
level, i.e. in a basement, or aboard any boat, yacht or
other vessel.
Positioning the Cooker
Caution: Some soft or badly fitted floor coverings can be
damaged when the cooker is moved across their surface
for cleaning. It is advisable to ensure that the floor covering
in the area below the cooker is either securely fixed so as
not to ruck up when the cooker is moved or, if preferred,
removed.
Important Safety Requirements
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the
Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations (current

in accordance with B.S. 5440: Part 2: Current Editions.
The following requirements for ventilation must be met.
The cooker should not be installed in a bed sitting room
with a volume of less than 20m 3 , if it is installed in a
room of volume less 5m 3 an air vent of effective area of
110cm 2 is required; if it is installed in a room of volume
between 5m 3 and 10m 3 , an air vent of effective area 50cm 2
is required, while if the volume exceeds 11m 3 no air vent
is required. However, if the room has a door which opens

the volume is between 5m 3 and 11m 3 .
If there are other fuel burning appliances in the same
room, B.S. 5440: Part. 2: Current Editions should be
consulted to determine the requisite air vent
