RANGE SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and
on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can
kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will
follow the safety alert symbol and either the word
“DANGER,” “WARNING” or “CAUTION.”
These words mean:
An imminently hazardous situation. You
could be killed or seriously injured if you
don’t immediately follow instructions.
A potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious bodily injury.
A potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in
moderate or minor injury.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you
how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the
instructions are not followed.

WARNING
Fire Hazard
If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or
explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or
death.
- Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
- WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Clear the room, building, or area of all occupants.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow
the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
- Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer,
service agency or the gas supplier.
WARNING: Gas leaks cannot always be detected by smell.
Gas suppliers recommend that you use a gas detector approved by UL
or CSA.
For more information, contact your gas supplier.
If a gas leak is detected, follow the “What to do if you smell gas”
instructions.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord plug.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to do so can result in death, fire or electrical shock.
IMPORTANT: The range must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if
plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a

•A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is required. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this range be provided.
•Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120-volt
power and is correctly grounded.
•This gas range is not required to be plugged into a GFCI (Ground-Fault Circuit
Interrupter) outlet. It is recommended that you not plug an electric spark
ignition gas range or any other major appliance into a GFCI wall outlet as it may
cause the GFCI to trip during normal cycling.

GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International 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" (36 cm) 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.
IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances.
In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National
Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 –
latest edition.
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range must be conducted according to the
manufacturers instructions.

STEP 3 - INSTALL ANTI-TIP BRACKET
INSTALL ANTI-TIP BRACKET
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns
to children and adults.
IMPORTANT:
•An anti-tip bracket is provided with the range. The anti-tip bracket uses a rear
range foot to secure the range to the oor or wall.
•Attach the anti-tip bracket to the oor or wall so that the rear range foot will be
centered within the bracket when the range is pushed into its nal position.
1. Remove the anti-tip bracket and two screws (provided) from the parts bag.

b
a 16 x 1⁵⁄₈" Screws (2)
b Anti-tip Bracket
NOTE: The anti-tip bracket must be securely mounted to the suboor or wall. The
ooring’s thickness may require longer screws to anchor bracket to suboor.
2. Place the bracket so that the back of the bracket is against the rear wall and the
side edge of the bracket is ³⁄₈" to ¹⁄₂" from the adjacent cabinet.
NOTE: If there is no adjacent cabinet, place the bracket so that the edge of the
bracket is ³⁄₈" to ¹⁄₂" in from the range side panel. If the countertop overhangs the
cabinet, oset the bracket from the cabinet by the depth of the overhang plus
an additional ³⁄₈" to ¹⁄₂".

construction.
NOTE: A nail or awl may be used to create a pilot hole, if a drill is not available.
For concrete construction ¹⁄₄" x 1¹⁄₂" Lag Bolts and ¹⁄₂" O.D. Sleeve Anchors are
required.
Wood
•Floor - Drill a ¹⁄₈" pilot hole, as shown.
NOTE: Contact a qualied oor covering installer for the best procedure for
drilling mounting holes through your type of oor covering.

• Insert the sleeve anchor into the drilled holes and then insert the lag bolts
through the anti-tip bracket and into the oor or wall. The bolts must be
properly tightened as recommended for the hardware.
6. Complete the range installation following the Installation Instructions
(provided).

STEP 4 - MAKE GAS CONNECTION
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International 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" (36 cm) 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.
