Safety Information

Connecting Range to Gas

Install manual shut-off valve in gas line for easy accessibility outside range. Be aware of the location of the shut-off valve.

Electrical Requirements

120-volt, 60 Hertz, 15 amp, individual circuit which is properly grounded, polarized and protected by a circuit breaker or fuse.

Extension Cord

Due to possible pinching during installation, extension cords should not be used on products.

Extension cords will adversely affect the performance of spark system.

Grounding

NOTE: This appliance must be properly grounded, for personal safety.

Power cord on this appliance is equipped with a three- prong grounding plug. This matches standard three- prong grounding wall receptacle to prevent possibility of electric shock from this appliance.

Consumer should have wall receptacle and circuit checked by qualified electrician to verify receptacle is properly grounded.

Where standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is consumers responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM POWER CORD.

For 15 amp circuits only. Do not use an adapter on 20 amp. circuit. Where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to properly grounded two- prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL listed adapter available at most hardware stores.

Larger slot on adapter must be aligned with larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity.

!WARNING

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

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

Neutral Wire

Ground Hot Line

NOTE: Circuit tester can be use to verify voltage is present at the outlet, connect one lead to hot line and the other lead to ground, circuit tester should light.
