INSTALLATIONCheck the appliance is electrically safe and gas sound when you have finished.25AB400300100300Gas ConnectionMust be in accordance with the relevant standards.The gas supply needs to terminate with a down-facingthreaded fitting ½” connection. The inlet connector is locatedjust below the hotplate level at the rear of the cooker.Because the height of the cooker can be adjusted andeach connection is different it is difficult to give precisedimensions. Ideally, the house supply connection should bein the shaded area (Fig.7-9).Means of isolation must be provided at the supply point byeither an approved quick-connect device or a Type 1 manualshut-off valve.The hose should be fitted so that both inlet and outletconnections are vertical so that the hose hangs downwards ina ‘U’ shape (Fig.7-9).A flexible connection is supplied with the cooker.

Screw connect the threadedend of the hose into the gas inlet.After completing the gas connection, check the cooker is gassound with a pressure test. When checking for gas leakes donot use washing up liquid – this can corrode. Use a productspecifically manufactured for leak detection.Natural GasThe adjustable spring loaded gas pressure regulator ispresent to give a nominal pressure of 1 kPa on Natural gas.Connect to the Rp ½ inlet on the underside of the pressureregulator.PropaneThis cooker is supplied ready for use on natural gas. Aconversion kit for Propane as is supplied with the cooker –see the ‘Conversion to Propane Gas’ section.Pressure TestingThe pressure test point is accessible on the inlet pipe at therear. Remove the test nipple screw and fit a pressure gauge tothe test point. Turn on and light two of the hotplate burners.For Natural Gas cookers the pressure should be 1 kPa.For Propane X cookers the pressure should be 2.54 kPa.Fig.7-9A – Position for gas supply connector, B – Appliance gas inlet
