[. . . ] For proper operation of a gas appliance it is essential for the air necessary for combustion of the gas to be able to flow naturally into the room. Air must flow directly into the room through openings in its outside walls. This (these) opening (s) must have a free passage crosssection of at least 100 cm2, or 200 cm2 for appliances not equipped with gas safety device. These openings must be constructed so that they cannot be obstructed indoors or outdoors, and should preferably be close to the floor on the side opposite to the combustion gas discharge point. If it is not possible to make the openings in the room where the cooker is installed, the necessary air may be taken from an adjoining room, proveded it is not a bedroom or a room with fire risk. 7 Instructions for the installer 2. 5 Clearance above and around domestic cookers Extract from AS5601 REQUIREMENTS 1 Overhead clearances ­ (Measurement A) Range hoods and exhaust fans shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between the highest part of the hob of the cooking appliance and a range hood be less than 600 mm or, for an overhead exhaust fan, 750 mm. Any other downward facing combustible surface less than 600 mm above the highest part of the hob shall be protected for the full width and depth of the cooking surface area in accordance with Clause 5. 12. 1. 2. However, in no case shall this clearance to any surface be less than 450 mm. 2 Side clearances ­ (Measurements B & C) Where B, measured from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical combustible surface, is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected in accordance with Clause 5. 12. 1. 2 to a height C of not less than 150 mm above the hob for the full dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area. Where the cooking appliance is fitted with a `splashback', protection of the rear wall is not required. 3 Additional requirements for Freestanding and Elevated Cooking Appliaces ­ (Measurements D & E) Where D, the distance from the periphery of the nearest burner to a horizontal combustible surface is less than 200 mm, then E shall be 10 mm or more, or the horizontal surface shall be above the trivet. The optional grid B is for use with woks. To prevent damage to the hob, the cooker comes complete with a raised pan stand C for use underneath pans more than 26 cm in diameter. The pan stand C supplied is for use even with small pans. The burner each knob controls is shown next to the knob. The appliance is equipped with an electronic ignition device. Simply press the knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the minimum flame symbol , until the burner lights. Keep the knob pressed down for a few seconds to allow the thermocouple to heat up. The burner may go out when the knob is released: in this case, the thermocouple has not heated up sufficiently. Repeat the operation, keeping the knob pressed down for longer. This is not necessary on burners not equipped with thermocouple. If the burners should go out accidentally a safety device will be tripped about 20 seconds later, cutting off the gas supply even if the gas tap is open. 7. 2 Practical hints for using the hob burners For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with lids and of suitable size for the burner, so that flames do not reach up the sides of the pan (see paragraph "7. 3 Pan diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over. [. . . ] If they dry for too long, they might damage the enamel coating of the inside of the oven. 10. 4 The burner caps, flame diffuser rings and burners The burner caps and flame diffuser rings can be removed for easier cleaning; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all deposits, and wait for them to dry completely. Replace the burner caps on their rings, making sure that the holes A are perfectly centered with the circular projections B on the burners. Never wash these components in the dishwasher. 10. 5 The plugs and thermocouples For best performance, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be kept thoroughly clean. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with a wet cloth. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle. 20 Instructions for the user 10. 6 Cleaning the oven For best oven upkeep clean regularly after having allowed to cool. [. . . ]
