INSTALLATION

UNPACKING

Immediately after unpacking the oven, check for possible shipping damage. If this oven is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Prior to installation, verify that the electrical supply and type of gas (natural or propane) agree with the specifications on the oven data plate, located on the inside of the top front cover.

Do not use the door or its handle to lift the oven.

LOCATION

The equipment area must be kept free and clear of combustibles. Clearance from combustible or non- combustible construction of at least 3" (7.6 cm) on the sides and 3" (7.6 cm) at the back are required. The installation location must allow adequate clearance for servicing and proper operation.

The oven must be installed so that the flow of combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room to allow for combustion of gas at the oven burners.
