WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Recommended ground method

For personal safety, this range is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong, ground-type outlet, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition* and all local codes and ordinances.

If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly polarized and grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a qualified

Materials required:

gas line shutoff valve

1/2" male pipe thread nipple for connection to pressure regulator

L.P. gas-resistant pipe-joint compound

AGA or CSA design-certified flexible metal appliance connector (4-5 feet) or rigid gas supply line as needed

Insulated pad or 1/4" plywood if range is installed over carpeting

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate and that the outlet is correctly polarized.

Do Not ground to a gas pipe.

Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range is properly grounded.

A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 10-ampere, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. In addition to checking that the outlet is correctly grounded, the outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician to see if it is wired with correct polarity.

Important: This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.

A wiring diagram is included on the back of the range.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new AGA or CSA approved gas supply line.

Install a shut-off valve.

Securely tighten all gas connections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" water column. Examples of a qualified person include licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

This installation must conform with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installations must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 — latest edition**.

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For assistance when installing the range at higher elevations, contact your local service company.

Type of gas: This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with L. P. gas.

This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. Gas conversion instructions are provided on pages 7-8. The model/serial rating plate located on the frame behind the storage drawer or broiler door has information on the type of gas that can be used. If the type of gas listed does not agree with the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier. Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

Gas supply line: Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" rigid pipe to the range location. With L.P. gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2" minimum. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Usually, L.P. gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.

Pipe-joint compounds made for use with L.P. gas must be used on pipe threads only.

Flexible metal appliance connector: If local codes permit, a new AGA or CSA design-certified, 1/2" or 3/4" I.D., flexible metal appliance connector is recommended for connecting range to the gas supply line. A 1/2" male pipe thread nipple is needed for connection to pressure regulator female pipe threads. Do Not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the range.

Rigid pipe connection: Requires a combination of pipe fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line.

gas supply

Shutoff valve: The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the range and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the range. Do Not block access to shutoff valve.

Pressure regulator: The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:

NATURAL GAS:

Minimum pressure: 5 inches W.C.

Maximum pressure: 14 inches W.C.

L.P. GAS:

Minimum pressure: 11 inches W.C.

Maximum pressure: 14 inches W.C.

Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.

Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi gauge

(14" WCP) — The range and its individual manual shutoff valve must be disconnected

from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower — The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
