Lift the range from the skid with a soft wheel dolly.

Support the range uniformly across the bottom

To remove door, open the door completely, close the hinge latches and release the door. Remove door by lifting and pulling.

Make sure gas and electric connections are made, anti-tip device is installed, and the back guard installed prior to placing the range in position.

Measure the height of the counter top and adjust the range height to match countertop height by adjusting front and rear leveling feet.

Slide the range in place and ensure that the range is level.

Reinstall the kick plate, top grates, oven door(s), drip pan tray(s), and make sure burner caps are seated firmly and locked into position.

WARNING: DO NOT lift the range by the oven door handles. Do not remove the griddle and grill sections!

STEP 2: VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS

It is strongly recommended that a suitable exhaust hood be installed above the range. Downdraft ventilation should NOT be used. The table below indicates the PRECISION Series Hoods, by model number, that are recommended for use with all ranges.

For wall installations, the hood width must, at a minimum, equal the width of the range’s cooking

surface. Where space permits, a hood larger in width than the cooking surface may be desirable for improved ventilation performance.

BLOWER CFM’s

60” RANGE = 1200 CFM

48” RANGE = 600-1200 CFM

36” RANGE = 600-1200 CFM

30” RANGE = 600 CFM

CAUTION: Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for use with single wall ducting. However, some local building codes or inspectors may require double wall ducting. Consult local building codes and/or local agencies, before starting, to assure that hood and duct installation will meet local requirements.

Hood blower speeds should be variable to reduce noise and loss of heated or air-conditioned household air when maximum ventilation is not required. Normally the maximum blower speed is only required when using the grill section.

2. HOOD PLACEMENT:

For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be installed a minimum of 30” to a maximum of 36” above the range cooking surface.

If the hood contains any combustible materials (i.e. wood covering), it must be a minimum of 40” above the cooking surface.

STEP 3: CABINET PREPARATION

1.The range is a freestanding unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances

shown in fig. 1 are required. The same clearances apply to island installations, except for the overhead cabinets, which must have a space wide enough to accept a suitable flared island hood, as indicated in fig. 1. Note: Capital Cooking does

NOT offer an island style ventilation hood.

2.The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13”.

3.A 40-inch minimum clearance is required between the top of the range and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet. A 30-inch minimum distance is necessary when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material covered with no less than No. 28 MSG Sheet Steel, 0.015-inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024-inch (0.6

mm)aluminum, or 0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick copper. Flame retardant materials bear the mark:

Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings. These designations are shown as “FHC (Flame Spread/Smoke Developed).” Materials with “O” flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow other flame spread ratings.

4.Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.

5.When there is less than a 12” horizontal clearance between combustible material D and the back edge of the range above the cooking surface, a Capital Low Back or High Shelf back guard must be installed (see Fig. 2A). When clearance to combustible material D is over 12”, a Capital Island Trim may be used (See Fig. 2B). Figures 2A and 2B indicate the space required for each type of back guard.
