If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified

persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Installing the gas cooker gas connection

Read these points before connecting to the gas supply:

• The cooker inlet connection point has a ½” BSP

external thread. See diagram below.

• An NG regulator or a LPG/Propane test point fitting

is supplied.

• It is recommended to fit the regulator or test point

fitting to the appliance connection point, then fit

either hard piping or a high level flexible connection

(AS/NZS 5601.1 clauses 5.9 and 6.10.1.9) which is then

attached to the consumer hard piping.

• Ensure installation allows withdrawal of appliance.

What is pyrolysis? Verified

Some ovens are equipped with a pyrolysis function. This is a cleaning system that burns dirt and fat in the oven by using very high temperatures. After pyrolysis, all the dirt will have turned to ash and can be easily removed. If the oven has a pyrolysis function, it is advisable to use it 3 to 4 times a year to keep the oven clean.

Can I connect a range to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a range, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the range is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

When I use the oven there often food remains that fall on the bottom, causing smoke. How can I prevent this? Verified

Many ovens come with both a grid and a baking tray. When food is prepared on the grid, the baking tray can be placed on the bottom to prevent food remains from burning and causing smoke.
