INSTALLATION
Important
Your attention is drawn to the latest GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION & USE) REGULATIONS 2000.
This appliance MUST be installed by a competent person in accordance with these and any other relevant
regulations. Users, too, should be aware of the regulations governing the use of gas appliances,
particularly with respect to the need for regular servicing.
Your attention is drawn to the requirement that those parts, which have been protected by the
manufacturer or his agent, are not to be adjusted by the installer.
Before Installation
Before commencing installation, remove all packaging materials from the appliance. It is suggested that
any protective film adhering to the stainless steel panels should be left on until installation is completed.
BUT THIS MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE COMMISSIONING OR OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
Check the appliance Data Plate (located on the rear of the flue upstand/splashback panel), to ensure that
the appliance is suitable for the gas supply available.
The Chargrill can be installed on a counter top capable of adequately supporting the weight of the
appliance, or a purpose designed stand fitted with adjustable feet to compensate for some unevenness
of the floor.
Positioning
Place the appliance in position allowing a minimum gap of 100mm (4”) at the rear and at least 150mm
(6”) between the sides of the appliance and any adjacent wall. If the appliance is being suited then please
refer to the separate instructions. The minimum distance between the hotplate and any overshelf or
ceiling constructed of a combustible material must be 1525mm (60”).
Adequate ventilation is essential for safe operation of a gas appliance. A supply of fresh air is necessary
for the correct combustion of the gas and there must be a means of exhausting the heat and the
products of combustion from the kitchen. It is recommended that the appliance be sited below a
ventilating hood, one preferably connected to an extractor system incorporating a grease filter.
Appliances are to be installed with sufficient ventilation to prevent the occurrence of unacceptable
concentrations of substances harmful to health in the room in which they are installed.

Installation (cont.)
Important Note
The appliance MUST NOT be connected DIRECTLY to a flue or ventilating system, although the flue
products of two or more appliances may be directed into a common outlet when building a suite of
appliances (see separate instructions for suiting appliances).
Ensure that the appliance is level in two places - front to rear and side to side. Level can be achieved by
adjusting any or all of the screw in feet in each corner of the base. Turn anti-clockwise to lower and
clockwise to raise the corner.
Gas Connection
Natural Gas: The size of the supply pipe should be no smaller than ½” BSP and an easily accessible
stopcock must be fitted in the gas line adjacent to the appliance. The gas governor provided with the
appliance MUST be fitted in the supply line BETWEEN the stopcock and the appliance.
An armoured flexible pipe of a GAS COUNCIL APPROVED PATTERN is recommended.
NOTE:
Ensure that all the pipes to the appliance are clean and free from swarf etc, BEFORE making the final
connection.
Propane Gas: Follow the same procedure as that for Natural Gas EXCEPT that the Gas Governor MUST
NOT be fitted - the Gas Supply Tank or Cylinders are already fitted with a Gas Regulator.

Installation (cont.)
Leak Test
Clean off any protective film from the stainless steel panels.
AT THIS STAGE, LEAK TEST THE WHOLE SYSTEM. THE GAS SAFETY REGULATIONS require that ALL
connections in the gas supply line between the Gas Meter and the appliance are tested for gas leaks.
THIS MUST BE DONE BEFORE COMMENCING TO COMMISSION THE APPLIANCE.
Checking and commissioning
ALTHOUGH EVERY APPLIANCE IS TESTED AND SET BEFORE IT LEAVES THE FACTORY, IT IS
IMPORTANT THAT THE INSTALLER RE-CHECKS CERTAIN FUNCTIONS BEFORE LEAVING THE SITE.
CHECK THE GAS PRESSURE AT THE APPLIANCE THUS: -
The pressure test point is located on the manifold rail at the right hand side behind the front control
panel, which is secured by two M5 screws.
Connect a manometer (U tube) to the test point. Turn on the gas supply and light two burners. Check
that the pressure reading agrees with that stated on the Data Plate.
SHOULD ADJUSTMENT BE NECESSARY, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS: -
FOR PROPANE GAS, REFER TO SUPPLIER.
On the gas governor: -
Remove the cap in order to gain access to the pressure adjusting screw.
Turn the pressure adjusting screw clockwise to increase the pressure or anti-clockwise to decrease it.
When the pressure reading is correct, refit the cap to the governor.
Turn the gas supply to the unit OFF at the stopcock and disconnect the manometer (U tube). Ensure that
the pressure test point screw is refitted.
Turn the gas supply to the appliance on at the stopcock and leak test the pressure test point.
Burner Aeration
The aeration of all the burners is fixed and does not need adjusting.
The parts protected by the manufacturer or his agent are not to be adjusted by the installer.
This appliance must be equipotentially earth bonded.

the bars. To avoid this, pre-heat the brander bars with the burners on full for approximately 15 minutes
then turn down to low rate for a further 5 minutes, then lightly brush with oil.
