FITTING OVEN ACCESSORIES AND CLEANING
Safety warnings about cleaning
• Always make sure that the cooker is turned off before cleaning.
• Always clean cooker immediately after use.
- Do not use steam cleaners. These may cause moisture build-up.
- Do not use caustic- based cleaners. These will damage aluminums parts, and remove enamel gloss.
Cleaning the enamel
- Keep enamel clean by wiping it with a soft cloth dipped in warm soapy water.
- Rub difficult stains with a nylon scourer or creamed powder cleanser.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners, dry powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes.
- If you use an oven cleaner, then follow the instructions on the product carefully.
Cleaning the control panel
- Make sure control knobs are in off position.
- Clean the control panel by wiping it with a soft cloth dipped in warm soapy water and squeezed dry.
• Take care when cleaning around knobs to ensure printing on control panel is not removed, this can occur if abrasive cleaners are used, therefore, should not be used at all.
Cleaning the gas hob
Remove the trivets (Refer Figure 1)

• The trivets locate in the recessed area of the hob.
• They can be removed for cleaning by carefully lifting them from the hob.
- Clean by washing in warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
• Take care when replacing the trivets as dropping them onto the hob may damage the enamelled surface.
Removing the burner parts
(Refer Figure 2)

• The burner caps and crowns are removable for cleaning.
- Flame port blockage should be removed by means of a match stick or brush.
- If the caps, crowns and cups are heavily soiled, use a non-abrasive cleaning compound.
- Do not clean them with abrasive or caustic type cleaners, or put in a dishwasher as they will be damaged.
Refitting the burner crowns and caps
- The burner crown must be fitted correctly into the burner cup or damage will occur during operation.
- To do this, ensure that the 2 ribs on either side of the spark plug hole are positioned into the 2 slots on the burner cup. (See figure 2).
- The burner cap is simply positioned over the top of the burner crown.
NOTE: When the burner is correctly fitted it will sit level on the hob. If ignition is difficult or fails after cleaning, or the flames are not even around the burner, then either burner parts are not dry / parts have not been positioned correctly or incorrect cap is fitted.

- Clean the glass door using non-abrasive products or sponges and dry it with a soft cloth.
- Do not use the oven without the inner door panes fitted correctly. When re-fitting inner glass door panes ensure they go back in facing the same way they came out. The doors are coated with a very slight reflective coating to reflect the heat back into the oven cavity and keep the outer door cooler to touch.
- Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

Electrical Connection
The appliance is supplied fitted with a power cord and 3 pin plug. Install the cooker so that the plug is easily accessible. Plug the 3-pin plug into a properly earthed, 10A general purpose power outlet preferably on a separate dedicated circuit.
If a permanent connection is used, the appliance's power supply line must be fitted with an omni polar breaking device with contact gap of at least 3 mm, located in an easily accessible position close to the appliance itself. If a socket and plug connection is used, check that they are of the same type. Do not use reducers, adapters or junctions since they may cause overheating or burns.
Operation at 220-240 V\~: use a type H05RR-F three-wire cable
(Cable of 3 × 1.5 mm^2 ).
WARNING: Installation MUST ONLY be carried out by a qualified approved installer, ie. an Electrician. NOTE: REFER to TECHNICAL tables at the rear of this manual for correct rating for your corresponding model purchased.

NOTE: All Upright cookers must comply to local regulations to Australian Standard AS/NZS 3000:2007 guidelines. Qualified Electrician will have a copy of these guides that MUST be adhered to.
Unpacking
Do not fit the burner crowns, burner caps and trivets until after the cooker has been installed.
Locating the cooker
This appliance must be installed by an authorised person in accordance with this instruction manual, AS/NZS 5601 – Gas installations (installation and pipe sizing), local gas fitting regulations, local electrical regulations, local water regulations, local health regulations, Building Code of Australia and any other government authority.
Overhead clearances—(Measurement A)
Range hoods and exhaust fans shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's relevant instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between the highest part of the hob of the gas cooking appliance and a range hood be less than 600 mm or, for an overhead exhaust fan, 750 mm.

Side clearances—(Measurements B, & C)
Where B, measured from the periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical combustible surface, or vertical combustible surface covered with toughened glass or sheet metal, is less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected 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 gas cooking appliance is fitted with a 'splashback', protection of the rear wall is not required.
Additional requirements for freestanding and elevated gas cooking appliances—(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.
Checking gas pressures
Before installation check that the cooker is suitable for the gas supply. To do this check the gas type on the carton sticker or on the data plate behind the bottom of the oven door. If the cooker is required to be used with LPG, the supplied conversion kit must be used.
The following shows the supply and operating pressures for various gas supplies.
Operate pressure at appliance test point:
1.00 KPa (Natural gas); N2.75 KPa (Universal LPG gas)
The following table shows the injector sizes for each burner.
| Injector | Natural gas | Universal LPG |
| Auxiliary burner | 0.93mm | 0.57mm |
| Semi-rapid Burner | 1.16mm | 0.71mm |

Illustration of a gas stove with four panes and a side panel (no text or symbols)Gas leakage and operation of the appliance must be tested by the installer before leaving. Check all burner flames are blue in colour, stable and completely ignite at both high and low flame settings with no appreciable yellow tipping, carbon deposition, lifting, floating, lighting back or objectionable odour. Test burners individually and in combination.
When maximum flame appearance is correct, then check the turn-down setting on each burner. If the settings appear to be incorrect, proceed as follows:
- Adjust the bypass screw mounted on the body of each hotplate control cock. This is accessible when the control knob and the control panel are removed.
- Check the ignition on all burners both separately and in combination.
- Check the operation of the electrical components, if applicable.
- If you are satisfied that the cooker is operating correctly, then turn it off and show the customer how to use it. Make sure you ask the customer to operate the clock and controls.
Where the data plate is obscured by cabinetry when the cooker is in the installed position, place the supplied duplicate data plate to a suitable adjacent surface or within the instruction manual for future reference.
