Installing your Built-in Oven
Bringing it all together
Installation
This appliance should be installed by a competent person or qualified electrician in accordance with the
regulations in force (All relevant British Standard/ Codes of Practice/relevant Building/IET regulations) and
in a well-ventilated space. Please read all instructions before installing and using this appliance.
Important: The power supply to the appliance must be cut off before any adjustments or maintenance work is
carried out.
Installation of Built-in Ovens
In order to ensure that the built-in appliance functions properly, the cabinet containing it must be appropriate. The
figure below gives the dimensions of the cut-out for installation under the counter or in a wall cabinet unit.
The worktop and any associated hob should be fitted
BEFORE
installing this oven.
It is recommended that if installing a built-in oven directly under the hob there should be a minimum air gap of
20mm between the oven and the bottom of the hob. Failure to maintain a suitable clearance may impair the
performance of the hob.
Ensure that air can flow freely around the housing area. If the oven is being installed into a fully enclosed built-
under oven housing unit, it may be necessary to cut a small slot in the top of the plinth fitted under the unit. Cut a
section 400mm wide and a minimum of 15mm high to allow air to pass under the unit. Alternatively cut a section
400x450mm in the base of the carcass. Failure to allow adequate ventilation to the appliance may result in
overheating or damage to adjacent units and could invalidate the guarantee.
Surfaces of furniture and walls adjacent to the appliance should be heat, splash and steam resistant. All cabinet
doors must be at least 4mm from the oven at all points.
Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration. We
cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by normal use of the appliance to any material that de-laminates or
discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room temperature.
When placing the oven in the housing, do not use the oven door or handle as a lever for lifting the oven as damage
may occur as a result.
If you lower the oven door, you will see 4 screw holes; 2 on each side of the oven. The oven should then be
secured to the housing by fitting screws into these holes.
