Introduction

This gas appliance has been designed and manufactured to all the
necessary British Standards. It also carries the C.E. mark. The
appliance complies with European Council Directive 90/396/EEC.
It is important that you understand how to use and care for the appliance
properly before you use it for the first time.
We have written this booklet with your safety in mind.  Read the booklet
thoroughly before you use the appliance.  Keep the booklet in a safe
place so that anyone who uses the appliance can read it.  Pass the
booklet on with the appliance if you give or sell it to someone else.

We have included several drawings to show the right and wrong way      
of doing things.

The right way will have a smiling face by it.

A sad face shows something is wrong.

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance  and can be      
seen upon opening the door.  Alternatively the rating plate may also be
found on the back or top of some models (Where applicable).  Do not
remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate
the guarantee.
