THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
WARNINGS:
l This cooker must be installed by a qualified
electrician/competent person. Safety may be
impaired if installation is not carried out in
accordance with these instructions.
l This cooker must be earthed.
l Do not remove the screws from the earth tab
extending from the oven mains terminal block
(Fig. 8).
l Before connecting the cooker make sure that the
voltage of your electricity supply is the same as
that indicated on the rating plate. The rating plate
can be seen by opening the oven door and
looking below the oven door seal.
l Do not alter the electrical circuitry of this cooker.
THINGS TO NOTE
l This cooker is designed to be fitted in cabinets of
the recommended dimensions as shown (Fig. 3
and 4) without any modification to the cabinet.
l If your cabinet interior dimension is
between 565-570.mm the oven may still
be fitted. However, a minor modification to
the cabinet will be required.
l The dimensions given provide adequate air
circulation around the unit within the cabinet,
ensuring compliance with BS EN60-335.
l Enquiries regarding the installation of the cooker
point if required should be made to your Regional
Electricity Company to ensure compliance with
their regulations.
l The cooker point should be within 2m of the
cooker to make it accessible to switch off the
cooker in case of an emergency.
l To protect the hands wear gloves when lifting the
oven into its housing.
NOTE: HOUSE CIRCUIT
Earth leakage and continuity tests must be carried
out before the cooker is connected to the mains
supply and re-checked after fitting.
GETTING THINGS READY
CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
l There are two possible ways to connect your
cooker, please choose from the most appropriate
after reading the descriptions.
a) It is recommended that this appliance is wired
with suitably rated cable (min 13 A), into fixed
wiring using a double pole isolator with at least
3mm contact separation in all poles and neutral,
located within 2m of the appliance. If this fixed
wiring circuit is only supplying the cooker, then a
fuse of 13A ( or circuit breaker ) should be
incorporated. When the circuit combines oven
and hob, then wire and fuse rating should be
increased accordingly.
b) If you wish to connect an oven and a hob to a
cooker point you can:-
i) By connecting the oven and hob separately
to the cooker point. Oven and hob units
should be separately connected to a control
panel. In this case the cooker should be
operated from 6mm² twin core, and earth,
PVC insulated multicore cable. See Fig. 1.

Subject to Regional Electricity Company
regulations if you wish to connect the
oven and hob to the power supply you
may use one of the following two
methods:-
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Safety may be
impaired if installation is not carried out in
fuse of 13A ( or circuit breaker ) should be
Fig.1

ii) By connecting the cooker point to the hob and
then connecting the hob to the oven. Provided
that the hob manufacturer permits it, connect
the oven to the hob and the hob to the cooker
point using the same cabling as described in
(a) above. Check the hob terminal block is
large enough to take two cables and is of
suitable rating. If not b) i) on page 8 must be
used. See Fig. 2.
NOTE: 13 amp cable is not suitable for
connecting this application.
NOTE: It is good practice to:
l Fit an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker to your
house wiring.
l Wire your appliance to the latest IEE regulations.
PREPARING CABINET FOR FITTING OF OVEN
l Make sure the cabinet is the correct size for the
appliance to be fitted (Ref. Fig. 3 and 4.)
l If the size is between 565-570mm, then the
cabinet should be modified so that at the screw
fixing points the recommended dimension of at
least 560-565mm is maintained. The modification
should ideally be localised to ensure that after
screw fitment the oven is securely fixed into
position.
l The cabinet must be stable and level by firmly
securing it to the wall or floor. If necessary, make
arrangements to ensure the shelf upon which the
oven will rest is level.
