5.When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in the off position and turn on the main gas supply valve Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system,

CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure-test the gas supply system of the residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When using test pres- sures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual shut-off valve

Electrical Connections

Electrical Requirements:

120-volt, 60-Hz, properly grounded branch circuit pro- tected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or time- delay fuse

Extension Cord Cautions:

Because of potential safety hazards associated with certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-type appliance extension cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than, the branch circuit rating

Grounding--IMPORTANT (Please read carefully):

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED..

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug that mates with a stan- dard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to mini- mize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance°

The customer should have the wall receptacle and cir- cuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded

Where a standard two-prong walt receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obli- gation of the customer to have it replaced with a prop- erly grounded three-prong wall receptacle,

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR

REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.

Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord

Will Be Disconnected INFREQUENTLY:

An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp circuit, Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where local

codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-prong wal! receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, available at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall recep- tacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord°

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring. The customer should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded..

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established
