When choosing a place for your cooker, do not place it near a refrigerator and make
sure
there are no flammable or combustible materials in the surrounding area that could
catch
fire with a cooker nearby, such as curtains, oil, cloth etc.
-
Make sure there is at least a 2cm gap between the back cover of the cooker and the wall
to help the air circulate.
-
Any furniture near the cooker must be made of materials that are resistant to heat up to
100°C.
-
Any kitchen furniture higher than the cooker top must be at least 10cm away from the
cooker's side.
The minimum height between the cooker top and any existing wall cupboards
and extractor
fans with furniture fascias are shown above. Extractor fans inside
a kitchen cabinet must be
at a minimum height of 650mm from the cooker top.
For exposed extractor fans, this height
must not be less than 700mm.
3.3 ADJUSTING THE FEET
This cooker stands on 4 levelling legs. As the legs are initially on a lower position, you must
adjust them to make sure the cooker is balanced before using it. If you need to balance the
cooker, the legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise. You can raise the cooker by a
maximum of 30mm with the levelling legs. If you have had to adjust the cooker with the
levelling legs make sure to move the cooker by lifting it rather than dragging it. The levelling
leg can be adjusted by hand or a suitable size coin.
