Preparing cabinet for fitting of
oven

Make sure that the cabinet is the correct size for the

appliance to be fitted (Recommended cabinet

dimensions).

If the size is between 565-570mm, then the cabinet

should be modified so that at the screw fixing points

the recommended dimension of at least 560-565mm is

maintained. The modification should ideally be localised

to ensure that after screw fitment the oven is securely

fixed into position.

The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly securing

it to the wall or floor. If necessary, make arrangements

to ensure the shelf upon which the oven will rest is

level.

When the appliance is installed ensure a minimum gap

of 2mm is maintained between the trim on the bottom

edge of the appliance, and any corresponding door /

panel underneath.

How to finish unpacking

Place packed appliance next to the space in which it will

be installed.

Remove the appliance packing except for bottom tray,

which should be left in position until the appliance is

ready to be fitted into its cabinet.

Important

It is imperative that the appliance is left in the base to protect

both the appliance and the floor.

Ensure the user is given these operating instructions.

Important

Important: Switch off at the mains, miniature circuit breaker and

if appropriate, remove fuse before commencing any electrical

work.

Fitting into the cabinet

Important

Ensure that the oven is switched off at the wall before any

further work is carried out.

Using a tape measure establish the internal width of the

cabinet. Refer to recommend cabinet dimensions if

greater than 565mm.

Position the appliance in front of the cabinet.

Take out all oven furniture before installation to reduce

the weight you need to lift. The oven door should be

taped up to keep it closed whilst lifting.

To place the appliance into the cabinetry follow the

procedure below:

Important

Two people will be required to carry out the lifting procedure.

Warning

Do not attempt to lift this appliance by the

handle(s).

Each person should squat either side of the appliance.

Tilt the appliance so that your hands can support the

underside of the appliance.

Keeping your back straight, raise the appliance to the

correct height by straightening at the knees.

Rest the rear underside of the appliance on the cabinet

floor while your hands support the front.

The appliance can be pushed fully into the cabinet. Take

care to avoid fouling the mains lead.

Ensure the appliance is central and level.

Do not remove spacers fitted behind fixing holes.

When the appliance is fully housed screw the stability

screws (supplied with the appliance) into the side of the

cabinet taking care not to distort the side trims. It is

advisable to turn each screw alternatively to avoid

damaging the trims.

Switch on the appliance then refer to the operating
