Your attention is drawn to the latest GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION & USE) REGULATIONS 2000.
This appliance MUST be installed by a competent person in accordance with these and any other relevant
regulations. Users, too, should be aware of the regulations governing the use of gas appliances,
particularly with respect to the need for regular servicing.
Before Installation
Before commencing installation, remove all packaging materials from the appliance. It is suggested that
any protective film adhering to the stainless steel panels should be left on until installation is completed.
BUT THIS MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE COMMISSIONING OR OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
Check the appliance Data Plate (located on the rear of the flue upstand/splashback panel), to ensure that
the appliance is suitable for the gas supply available.
Ensure that the floor upon which the appliance is to stand is level and capable of adequately supporting
the weight of the appliance.
TO COMPENSATE FOR SOME UNEVENNESS OF THE FLOOR, THE

FEET ARE ADJUSTABLE.
THE FLOOR MUST BE FIRE-PROOF. If it is not, or if any adjacent wall or surface is made of a
combustible material, then the installer
MUST ensure that the requirements of the LOCAL FIRE
REGULATIONS are observed.
Positioning
Place the appliance in position allowing a minimum gap of 150mm (6”) at the rear and at least 150mm
(6”)* between the sides of the appliance and any adjacent wall. If the appliance is being suited then
please refer to the separate instructions. The minimum distance between the hotplate and any overshelf

* This gap must be 250mm (10”) for Solid Top Ranges
Adequate ventilation is essential for safe operation of a gas appliance. A supply of fresh air is necessary
for the correct combustion of the gas and there must be a means of exhausting the heat and the
products of combustion from the kitchen. It is recommended that the appliance be sited below a
ventilating hood, one preferably connected to an extractor system incorporating a grease filter.
