Installing your cooker

person. Connection by an unregistered person
can cause a safety hazard.
We recommend that the cooker circuit is
protected by a suitably rated circuit breaker
but not connected to a Residual Current Device

E.L.C.B.).
This cooker is designed for a 230/240V AC single
or two phase connection.
This cooker must be connected with an
appropriately rated cord and plug that is
compatible with the socket-outlet fitted to the final subcircuit in the fixed wiring that is
intended to supply this cooker. For single phase connection, the supply cord should be at least
equivalent to an ordinary PVC sheathed and insulated, 4 mm
2
, three-core (twin and earth),
flexible cord. For two phase connection, the supply cord should be at least equivalent to an
ordinary PVC sheathed and insulated, 2.5 mm
2
, four-core, flexible cord.
This appliance must be connected to a circuit which incorporates an isolating switch providing
full disconnection from the power supply.
Cabinet clearances are as in the diagram on the right.
If you raise the cooker to align it with the bench, make sure the base of the cooker cannot slip.
Anti-tip brackets
Two anti-tip brackets are supplied with the accessories so that the cooker can be secured to
the wall to prevent it from tipping over. Use the two screws on the back panel of the cooker,
shown below.

Important safety precautions
Isolating switch: make sure this appliance is connected to a circuit which incorporates an
isolating switch providing full disconnection from the power supply.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children, or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should have
a responsible person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that they can
use the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
