INSTALLATION

at least 70mm from walls or other objects.
•
Do not place the gas stove near appliances that is sensitive to excessive or open heat
sources.
•
Make sure that the appliance is not standing on the gas pipe.

When placing a Snappy Chef 2-burner Gas Stove next to another
sunken object, e.g. second stove top, wash-up basin, a gap of 100mm
is recommended for safe installation.
It is also suggested that a gap of no smaller than 50mm between the back
wall, and stove top exists.
