Installation

STABILITY BRACKET

The cooker must be fitted with a stability device

firmly secured to the fabric of the building.

The M6 bolt at the top of the rear of the cooker can

be used to engage a stability chain. Keep the chain

clear of controls and pipes on the rear of the cooker.

The chain must be fitted to the wall behind the

cooker.

NOTE: If the cooker is to be placed on a base,

precautions must be taken to prevent it from

slipping off the base.

The cooker is designed to match the depth of

standard 600mm worktops.

An adaptor backplate should, therefore, be fitted

within the shaded area shown to allow the cooker to

be pushed fully to the wall. If a forward facing

backplate is used, it must be chased into 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.

LPG cookers should be connected with a hose

suitable for LPG and capable of withstanding

50mbar pressure.
