To Connect the Gas Supply:
1. Connect the gas supply to the right gas inlet at the rear of the cooker. The gas hose must hang in a “U” behind
the cooker and not drag on the floor.
2. Undertake a full gas tightness test.
3. To avoid damage to the appliance gas rail inlet pipe tighten the fittings using two suitable spanners.
4. Using a suitable leak detection fluid solution check each gas connection one at a time by brushing the
solution over the connection. The presence of bubbles will indicate a leak. If there is a leak, tighten the fitting
and then recheck for leaks.
Do not use a naked flame to test for leaks.
