IMPORTANT - SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations
Current Editions. Detailed recommendations are contained in the following British Standard Codes of Practice
- BS.6172, BS.5440: Part 2 and BS.6891. All British Standards must be 'Current Editions'.
PROVISION FOR VENTILATION
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
This appliance is not connected to a combustion products evacuation device. It shall be installed and
connected in accordance with the current installation regulations. Particular attention shall be given to the
relevant requirements regarding ventilation.
The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with BS. 5440: Part 2 Current
Edition. All rooms require an openable window or equivalent and some rooms will require a permanent vent
as well. For room volumes up to 5m³ an air vent of 100cm² is required: for room volumes between 5m³ and
10m³ an air vent of 50cm² is required. If the room has a door that opens directly to the outside, no air vent is
required. For room volumes that exceed 11m³ no air vent is required. If there are other fuel burning
appliances in the same room, BS.5440: Part 2 Current Edition should be consulted to determine the requisite
air vent requirements.
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening a window, or
more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
LOCATION OF APPLIANCE
This appliance must not be installed in a bed-sitting room of volume less than 20m³ or in a bathroom or
shower room. It is essential that the appliance is positioned as stated below. The appliance must be a
minimum of 20mm from the rear wall (note that this dimension is provided by the inlet elbow). Shelves, wall
cabinets and cooker hoods must not be fitted closer than 500mm to the top of the grill canopy or within
100mm of the sides of the grill. Curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the appliance or within 200mm
of the sides of the grill. If fitted next to or between two base units a minimum space of 1mm must be left
between the units and the sides of the appliance. The hotplate must be set to a minimum of 7mm above the
adjacent units (note that the levelling feet fitted to the appliance will achieve a nominal height to hotplate level
of 907mm -5+13mm). Base units not meeting the above conditions must be a minimum of 100mm away from
the hotplate. L.P.G. cookers MUST NOT be installed below ground level i.e. in a basement, or be fitted
