Installation
Work on the cooker must be carried out by a
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
The cooker is heavy.
Certain
edges and corners which will not normally
be
exposed may be sharp.
USE GLOVES
when
moving
the cooker.
Before installing the cooker, you should check that its
dimensions correspond to the rest of your kitchen units.
Measure the height of the worktop from floor to top surface
of the worktop, and the plinth depth from the wall to the
front edge of the plinth
(
SEE PICTURE
)
. The cooker may also
be installed adjoining one wall, or one tall unit. When deliv-
ered, the cooker plinth is adjusted to suit a worktop height
of 90 cm and a plinth depth of 55 cm. Where necessary, you
can alter the height of the plinth to make the cooker suitable
for a worktop height of 85 or 88 cm (see below). Check the
cooker cable is not trapped when moving the cooker.
To adjust the plinth height
1
Carefully lay the cooker on its front
(
SEE PICTURE
)
.
Use some of the packaging material to cushion
the cooker on the floor surface.
2
Take care: there are sharp edges on the underside
of the cooker. Unscrew screw A (1 screw) in the
centre rear of the plinth and the side screws B (4
screws,
SEE PICTURE
)
.
3
Push the plinth in to the required height setting,
90, 88 or 85 cm
(
SEE PICTURE
)
.
4
Screw in screws A and B again.
Levelling the cooker
The cooker must be level, for example to ensure that oil
in frying pans is of even depth. To check whether the
cooker is level, place a spirit level or a frying pan filled
with water on the hob. If necessary, you can lower (-6
mm) or raise (+12 mm) the wheels and feet, working
from the front of the cooker. Use a screwdriver to adjust
the rear wheels, and adjustable pliers for the front feet.
Electrical connection
Repairs and work on the cooker must be carried
out by a
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
. Work performed
by unqualified persons can damage the cooker,
and may also lead to personal injury and/or
damage to property.
The connection options for the cooker are shown on the
plate on the rear of the cooker. Wattage and voltage is
stated on the rating plate (see the right-hand side of the
cooker).
