Installation
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the
voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated
on the rating plate, which is situated on the rear panel.
The cooker must be connected by a competent person,
such as one who is a NICEIC registered contractor, to a suit-
able double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of
32A and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm (applicable
to newer properties, older properties where a 30A double
pole control unit and a minimum contact clearance of
3mm is acceptable).
The double pole control unit should be fitted adjacent to
the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations. The control
unit must be within 2 metres of, but not directly above the
appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of
an emergency.
The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a
conductor size of 6mm
2 minimum.
This appliance conforms to EN 55014 regarding
suppression of radio and television interference.
Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the
rear access cover.
The mains cable must pass through the cable clamp
adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be
used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.
Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any
brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not trapped to the
rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between
cabinets.
The height of the cooker can be adjusted by means of
adjustable feet in the plinth (900mm - 915mm). Adjust the
feet by tilting the cooker from the side. Then install the
product into position.
NOTE: This appliance must not be fitted on a platform.
The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets
spaced 500mm apart. The space either side need only be
sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It
can be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in a
corner setting. It can also be used free-standing.
Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must
not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be
protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging
surface or cooker hood should not be nearer 650mm.
