When using test pressures greater than 1/2psig to pressure test the gas supply system of the residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping.. When using test pressures of t_ psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual shuFoff valve°

Electrical Connections

(on some models) Electrical Requirements

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

Extension Cord Cautions

Because of potential safety hazards associated with certain 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.

The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where 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 three-prong wall receptacle.

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

POWER CORD.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) are devices

that sense leakage of current in a circuit and automatically switch off power when a threshold leakage level is detected. These devices must be manually reset by

the consumer.

Although the National Electrical Code requires the use of GFCts in kitchen receptacles installed to serve countertop appliances, GFCIs are not required or recommended in a receptacle serving a gas ranger

Performance of the range will not be affected

if operated on a GFCI-protected circuit, but occasional nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible.

If the breaker trips, power to the range will switch off.
