Ensure that all doors and windows of the room are closed.
Light the cooker as described. Leave on maximum rate
for five minutes.
If there is a fan in a nearby room then the spillage test
must be repeated with the fan turned on and any
interconnecting doors between the cooker and the fan
location open.
A spillage test must be carried out after 5 minutes as
follows:-
By holding a smoke match so that the match head is
approximately 3mm up inside of the lower edge of the
draught diverter. Spillage is indicated by the smoke being
displaced outwards from the draught diverter. If in doubt
repeat after a further 10 minutes.
If spillage is detected the chimney may be faulty. The
combustion discharge safety device will have operated,
the fault must be corrected before leaving the cooker
installed, the device must be depressed before the Aga
can be re-lit.
If the fault cannot be corrected turn off and disconnect the
gas supply to the cooker and seek expert advice.
