Important Notes:
Overhead Clearances
In no case shall the clearances
between the highest part of the
cooker be less than 650mm or for an
overhead exhaust fan 750 mm. All
other downward facing combustible
surfaces less than 650 mm above the
cooker surface shall be protected for
the full width of the cooking surface
in accordance with the standards
noted above. In no case shall the
clearance be less than 450 mm.
Rear and Side Clearances
• Where the dimensions from the
periphery of the nearest burner to
any vertical combustible surface
is less than 200 mm the surface
shall be protected in accordance
with the standards to a height of
not less than 150 mm above the
cooking surface for the full width
or depth of the cooking surface.
• Where the dimensions from the
periphery of the nearest burner
to any horizontal combustible
surface is less than 200 mm, the
horizontal surface shall be greater
than 10 mm below the surface of
the hob, or the horizontal surface
requirement above.
• Do not install the range near
flammable materials such as
curtains.
Installing the range on a plinth
• The freestanding oven can be
installed on a plinth without the
adjustable feet fitted.
• Ensure the freestanding oven
is secure and provide safety
measures to keep it in place.
• Cabinetry dimensions can be
adjusted to suit the plinth height,
see product dimensions for
