installed so that products of combustion are removed efficiently, and that the kitchen ventilation sy- tem does not produce drafts that interfere with proper burner operation.

The cooker flue opening must not be placed close to the intake of the exhaust fan, and the cooker must never have its flue extended in a “chimney” fashion. An extended flue will change the combustion characteristics of the cooker, causing longer recovery time. It also frequently causes delayed ignition.

When installed beneath a ventilation hood, adequate distance must be maintained from the flue outlet of the cooker to the lower edge of the ventilation filter bank. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45° with a drip tray placed beneath the lowest edge of the filter. For U.S. installation, NFPA standard No. 96 states, “ A minimum distance of 18 inches (450mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and the lower edge of the filter.”

For installations in other than the United States, installers should contact the appropriate local or national agency for information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods.

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS

All electrically operated appliances must be grounded in accordance with all applicable national and local codes, and where applicable, CE codes. A wiring diagram is located on the inside of the cooker door. Refer to the rating plate on the inside of the cooker door for the proper voltages.

DANGER

If this appliance is equipped with three-prong (grounding) plug, it must be plugged directly into properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug.

DANGER

This equipment requires electrical power for operation.

Place the gas control valve in the OFF position in case of a prolonged power outage.

Do not attempt to use the equipment during a power outage.

NATIONAL CODE REQUIREMENTS

GSMS/GBC/GC cookers are manufactured to use the type of gas specified on the rating plate. The rating plate is attached to the inside of the cooker door. Connect a cooker only to the type of gas indicated on the rating plate.

Installation shall be made with a gas connector that complies with the national and local codes or regulations in force in the country in which the appliance is being installed. Quick-disconnect devices, if used, shall likewise comply with the national and local codes or regulations in force in the country in which the appliance is being installed

When installing GSMS/GBS/GC cookers in theUNITED STATES, the installation must conform to the latest edition of the Nation Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. In addition, installation must comply
