b) Free standing cooker: type X – class 1; point a) also applies to this class, with the exception
that one side of the cooker must be left free so that the flexible rubber gas piping, can be
inspected.
After unpacking the cooker, remove the plastic protection from the stainless steel,
aluminium and/or painted parts to avoid it melting. The utmost care must be taken when
removing this protection so as not to damage the protected parts. Now the feet can be fitted.
They must be fixed to the ends of the slits on the cooker pedestal. Their height can be adjusted
in order to line the cooker up with other units. Ensure that the cooker is perfectly stable. Fit the
burners, the flame diffusers and the grids into their seats on the hob (see paragraph 3.9). Some
models come with rubber pads that prevent the steel hob surface from being scratched. Fit
them to the central pan grid made of chrome-plated rod.
For the installation anchor the cooker by using the supplied kit referring
to the relevant drawing. We provides two brackets, which will serve to
anchor the wall-terminal of the cooker. We must fix the brackets to the
wall, following the instructions of the drawings. We must then slightly lift
the cooker to let in the bracket on the crease of the wall-terminal or
working top cooker.
Note: When the burners are alight, there must not be any
draughts inside the room in that they may affect the flame or even blow it out.
(PLEASE NOTE: The fixing hook is not provided as the type will depend on the
construction of the wall to which it will be drilled and fitted. The installer should
provide the fixing hook).
