Any Corgi registered fitter requiring help must provide name, address and registration number. Information supplied will be validated before help is provided. Warning: Only a C.O.R.G.I. registered installer, also with technical knowledge of electricity should install the appliance.
Ventilation The appliance should be installed into a room or space with an air supply in accordance with BS 5440-2: 2000. For rooms with a volume of less than 5 m3 - permanent ventilation of 100 cm2 free area will be required. For rooms with a volume of between 5 m3 and 10 m3 a permanent ventilation of 50 cm2 free area will be required unless the room has a door which opens directly to the outside air in which case no permanent ventilation is required.
How to install your oven Ensure that air can flow freely around the housing area. If the oven is being installed into a fully enclosed built under oven housing unit it may be necessary to cut a small slot in the top of the plinth fitted under the unit. Cut a section 400 mm wide and a minimum of 15 mm high to allow air to pass under the unit. Failure to allow adequate ventilation to the appliance may result in over heating or damage to adjacent units.
Gas conversion (to L.P.G. or Natural gas) Figure 5 This appliance is regulated to work with the gas indicated in the gas regulation label. If it has to work with another type of gas (L.P.G. or Natural gas), before the appliance is connected you must substitute the oven and grill burner injectors as follows: a) REPLACEMENT OF THE OVEN BURNER INJECTOR ✓ Open the oven door completely. ✓ Remove the burner cover (Fig. 5). Figure 6 ✓ Remove the burner by unscrewing the two front screws (Fig. 6).
Figure 8 b) REPLACEMENT OF THE GRILL BURNER INJECTOR ✓ Remove the burner by unscrewing the front screw (fig. 8). Gently suspend the burner as shown in figure 9. Be careful not to damage the wire of the electric ignition and the probe of the safety valve. ✓ Using a 7 mm box spanner, replace the injector (indicated by the arrow in fig. 9). ✓ Replace the burner repeating the above steps in reverse order.
Flames regulation of the oven and grill burners Using a cross-head screwdriver, slacken the screw securing the air flow regulation collar (figs. 10 and 11) and move the collar forward or backward to increase or reduce the air aperture in accordance with gas type and the indications in the “TABLE FOR THE INJECTORS”. Light the burner and check the flame. Warning: The regulation of the flames must only be carried out by a Corgi registered fitter.
REGULATION OF THE MINIMUM FLAME This needs to be done only for the oven burner (the grill is a fixed capacity) by acting on the thermostat. Considering that in the minimum position the flame must have a length of about 4 mm and must remain lit even with a brusque passage from the maximum position to that of minimum. The flame adjustment is done in the following way: ✓ Light the oven burner by turning the knob on position .
How to use your gas oven Locate the wire side frames as indicated in Fig. 13. Slide in, on the guides, the shelf and the tray etc. (Fig. 14).
