appliance corresponds with the type of gas to which it  

is intended the applance be connected.

4.   A certificate of compliance MUST be given to the

Installation procedure

1.   The bench cutout should be made as per cutout 

dimensions in Table 2 and Figure 4.

2.   Adjacent walls, cupboards and protection for combustible 

materials: Ensure that the appliance is installed in 

accordance with clauses 6.2.5 and 6.10.1.1 of  

AS/NZS 5601.1, or clauses 6.9.1 and 6.9.5 of  

AS/NZS 5601.2 with regard to clearances to 

combustible surfaces and materials, and clearances  

to rangehoods and exhaust fans.

   To ensure clearances of 200mm from burners to vertical 

combustible surfaces observe the minimum distance 

requirements shown in Figure 5.

   Clearances to combustible surfaces may be reduced if 

combustible surfaces are protected in accordance with 

clause 6.10.1.2 of AS/NZS 5601.1, or clause 6.9.2 of 

AS/NZS 5601.2.

3.  

Optional barrier:

 A barrier can be installed to prevent 

accidental contact with the cooktop base, where the 

base of the cooktop is accessible from below (i.e. Inside 

a cupboard, etc.). An impression has been incorporated 

into the base to ensure a minimum clearance of 10mm is 

maintained between the base and the barrier. This barrier 

may be made of any rigid material.

   Barrier protection is not necessary if the product is 

installed above an underbench oven or similar appliance 

and/or if the cupboard construction is such that the 

underside of the cooktop is not accessible.
