NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and
overheating of the appliance. Do not use the range top or oven as a food or kitchen item storage area.
Never block or cover any slots, holes or passages located anywhere inside or outside the range. These structures are important to safe
operation of the appliance and doing so may block airow through the oven or cooktop possibly causing carbon monoxide poisoning
or re. Routinely keep all slots free of grease and other materials.
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT USE any device or accessory not
specically recommended in this guide. DO NOT USE pan or pan covers on surface units, grills or griddles. These devices can create
serious safety hazards including personal injury, create performance problems and may damage the appliance. Do not store or use
corrosive chemicals, vapors, ammables or non-food products in or near this appliance. It is specically designed for use when heating
or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or cleaning could result in personal injury or damage to the appliance.
Purchase a kitchen re extinguisher for your home and store it in close proximity to your appliance. Should an uncontrolled re occur,
never use water on grease res. Never pick up a aming pan. The oven door interior and exterior, especially the glass can get hot
during operation. Do not touch the glass – use the door handle to open or close the range door.
The push-to-turn gas valve knobs on the appliance are designed to be child-safe, however, they are not a guarantee of operation.

Never wear loose tting or long sleeved apparel while cooking. Never wear garments made of ammable materials. Clothing may
ignite or catch utensil handles. DO NOT drape towels or other items on door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.
If your product is a range or oven ALWAYS place oven racks in the desired position before you start cooking and while the oven is
cool. Always use dry and sturdy pot-holders to carefully slide the oven rack out to add or remove food.
If your product is a range or cooktop located near a window, be certain window curtains or other ammable objects do not blow over
or near the range burners; the items could catch on re.
If operating the surface burners, the ame must be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive high ame settings
may cause scorching of the nearby counter-top surface, as well as the outside of the utensil and handles.
ALWAYS turn the appliance o at the end of cooking.
When dehydrating food items, periodically check during the process to ensure that they do not catch on re.
If you are “aming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE FAN OFF. The draft from the fan could cause the ames to
spread out of control.
Care must be exercised if your appliance is equipped with a high-shelf. During heavy or continuous use, this shelf may be come hot. Do
not place combustible materials or plastic items on the shelf.
Turn the knobs to the OFF position prior to removing them from the valve stems for cleaning.

»Be certain the appliance being installed is correct for the gas
service being provided. Refer to the appliance data plate for the
gas supply requirements.
»A manual gas shut-o valve must be remotely installed and easily
accessible in the adjacent cabinet. The regulator inlet is for a
3/4 inch gas line. The appliance ships with a 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch
adapter connected to the regulator.
»Use at least a 1/2" commercial ex hose to connect rangetop to
the gas supply (service line).
»A manual gas shut-o valve must be installed, in easy access in
front of the gas supply (service line) and ahead of the rangetop
for safety and ease of maintenance.
»All valves must be in the OFF position before connecting to the
gas supply line.
PRESSURE REGULATOR
»The regulator installed in the rangetop is adjusted at the factory
for 5" WC (natural gas) or 10" WC (L.P.) depending on the
customer’s request. Regulators must not be removed.
»The regulator can withstand a maximum pressure of 1/2 PSIG
(14" WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a step-down
regulator will be required.
»Any adjustment to regulators must be made ONLY BY
QUALIFIED service personnel with proper test equipment.
GAS REQUIREMENTS
»Ensure supplied gas matches the rangetop’s gas type.
»Natural gas connection is 1/2" N.P.T. minimum 1/2" diameter
ex line.
»Natural gas inlet pressure to measure 7" to 10" W.C.
»Propane gas connection is 1/2" N.P.T. minimum 1/2" diameter
ex line.
»LP gas inlet pressure to measure 11" to 14" W.C.
»A step-down regulator in additon to the regulator provided
with the LP rangetop is required at the LP (Propane) source to
limit pressure to a maximum of 14" W.C.
»Check that all gas connections are properly sealed with a
suitable gas joint compound.
TEST ALL JOINTS WITH A SOAPY WATER SOLUTION
BEFORE LIGHTING THE BURNERS
»Turn ON the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas supply
line.
»Check for gas leaks at the exible coupling or gas connector
tting using a solution of one part soap and three parts water.
»Sparingly spray or brush the soapy solution at the gas ttings;
active bubbling indicates location of gas leak.
»If a gas leak is detected turn o the manual gas valve at the inlet
side of the gas line. Call your certied service technician.
FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS, CONNECTORS AND CASTERS
»Flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect ttings must be heavy
duty, CSA/UL design certied of at least 1/2" NPT with suitable
strain reliefs.
»The exible connector must comply with the standard for
Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69-CSA
6.16 and any Quick-Disconnect Devices For Use With Gas Fuel
Appliances should comply with ANSI Z21.41CSA 6.9.
»All connections must be sealed with joint compound specied
for LP or Natural gas; and all connections must be tested with a
soapy water solution before using.
»When disconnection of the restraint is necessary, make sure to
reconnect the restraint after the rangetop has been returned to
its original position.
