GE JGBC18, JGBS18 manual ELECTRlmL Connections on some models, Grounding

1.Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sure everyone operating the range knows where and how to shut off the gas supply to the range.

2.Install male 1/2” flare union adapter to

the 1/2” NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of

regulator. On models equipped with standard tin burners, install the male pipe thread end of the 1/2” flare union adapter to the 1/2” NPT internal thread at inlet of pressure regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.

men installing the range from the front, remove the 90° elbow for easier installation.

3.Install male 1/2” or 3/4” flare union adapter to the N~ internal thread of the manual shut- off valve, taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.

4.Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.

5.men 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.

CA~ON: DO NOT USE A FME TO

CHECK FOR GAS ~.

men 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. men using test pressures 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.

❑ELECTRlmL CONNECTIONS (on some models)

Electrical Requirements

12@volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15-amp or 20amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

Extension Cord Cautions

Because of potential safety hazards associated with certiin 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

IMPORT~—(Please read carefully)

FOR PERSONW SAFETY, THIS APPL~CE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong @rounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong grounding

mere a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded threeprong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ~ CIRCUMST~CES, CUT OR REMO~ THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE PO~R CORD.
