CONNECTIONS
Wiring connection for gas cooker
To allow for disconnection of the appliance after
installation, the plug must be accessible after installation.
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 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.

Operation on universal LPG/propane
1. The appliance inlet fitting provided MUST be
orientated so that the pressure nipple is accessible.
2. The inlet fitting has ½” BSP internal thread at the inlet
and outlet.
Operation on SNG (WFG617 models only)
If the cooker is to be used with SNG, then the grill
burner MUST be modified by the replacement of the
shutter, which fits into the throat of the grill burner.
A conversion kit can be obtained by contacting the
Customer Care Centre.

Testing the gas cooker
WARNING
WARNING
You MUST test the cooker after installation, before you
hand it over to the customer.
You MUST have a manometer and a connecting tube.
Gas requirements
This appliance must be installed by an authorised person,
according to all codes and regulations of:
AS/NZS 5601.1 (particular attention to clause 6.10.1
and figure 6.3 on page 97, and clause 6.10.1.11)
The cookers come in two gas types: Natural gas and
Universal LPG. Before installation check that the cooker
is suitable for the gas supply. To do this check the gas
type on the carton sticker or on the data plate behind the
bottom of the oven door. The following table shows the
supply and operating pressures for various gas supplies.

*Some models do not require an appliance regulator
for LPG operation, in which case the supply pressure
and operating pressure are the same. In such cases
the supply pressure is adjusted at a regulator in the
consumer piping, typically located at the cylinder.
