•
Checking For Gas Leaks
a soap-and-water solution around the area in question. If there is a gas leak, small bubbles will appear in the
solution. If unsure, call for professional help.
Electrical and Grounding Safety
• Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter or extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged plug, cord, or loose power outlet, and do not alter the plug, cord, or outlet.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
• Use a dedicated 240 Vac, 60 Hz, 50 Amp breaker forthe 48" Range and a 40 Amp breaker for the 36" Range.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker should be used. Plug only the range into this circuit.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing/gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• The range must be grounded. Grounding lowers the risk of electric shock by giving the current a safe path.
If unsure that your outlet is properly grounded, have a licensed electrician check it.

• When setting a burner to simmer, turn the knob slowly; ensure the burner stays lit.
• Place only cookware on the cooktop.
• The cooktop is designed to cook with a wok orwok-ring attachment.
• Food should only be cooked under an active ventilation hood.
• Before removing cookware, turn off the burner, and remove food/cookware when done cooking.
• Burners should be off and all surfaces cool before removing grates and burner parts. After cleaning the
burner head, dry it completely before re-assembly.

• Do not use cookware that is much larger than the grate.
• Turn cookware handles away from active burners and the cooktop front edge.
• Heat frying-oil slowly, and watch as it heats. When frying at high heat, stand at a safe distance, and monitor
the oil constantly. If combining fats/oils, mix them together before heating.
• Use a deep-fry thermometer if possible to avoid heating the oil beyond its smoke point.
• Fry with minimal oil. Thaw food fully before frying; do not fry icy or overly cold food. Let oil/fat cool to room
temperature before moving the cookware.
• To avoid delayed-eruptive boiling, let oil/fat stand at least 20 seconds after turning off the burner to stabi-
lize the temperature.

• If powerfails, turn the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and power returns, the oven may begin to oper-
Self-Cleaning Safety
• During self-cleaning, the oven operates at about 800 °F (427 °C). Do not touch any surfaces of the range
during a self-cleaning cycle, and keep children away from the oven.
• Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe excess food residue from the oven. (Excess grease may ignite,
causing smoke damage.

2. Plan for a location where the range will not be subject to strong drafts.
3. Remove packaging, grate boxes, regulatorwith literature, and literature package from the range, verify
that all items are present before beginning the installation.
General Requirements
Clearances and Dimensions
• For over-the-range (OTR) over gas stove, follow the local gas code.
• For safe operation, provide adequate space between the range and combustible surfaces. Location of the
electrical outlet and gas piping may be adjusted to meet the dimensions and clearances in this manual.
•
wall between the range and hood. It is not necessary to install non- combustible material directly behind
• Canada only: A free-standing range shall be installed at least 4.7 in. (12 cm) from all adjacent surfaces.
The range complies with the maximum allowable wood-cabinet temperature of 194 °F (90 °C).
Ensure the adjacent wall covering, countertops, and cabinets can withstand such heat to avoid discoloration,
delamination, or melting.
Minimum Dimensions
Regarding overhead cabinets, a hood should be installed that projects at least 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the cabin-
etry face to dissipate heat in those cabinets. The hood must consist of sheet metal at least .0122" thick. Install
the hood with at least 1/4" clearance between it and the bottom of the combustible material or metal cabinet.
The hood must be at least as wide as the range and centered over it. Clearance between the cook surface and
hood bottom must be at least 24". (For above-range cooking appliances, follow that appliance's installation
criteria.)
• 30" (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between the cook surface and bottom of an unprotected wood/ metal
cabinet; or if no 30" (76.2 cm) min. clearance, 24" (61 cm) min. when the bottom of the wood/metal cabinet

Installation Requirements
Gas and Electrical Service
• See below forthe recommended location of the gas inlet and electrical junction box/receptacle. Existing
utilities may be used if they are compatible with this range. Check local building codes for allowed gas-
valve locations.
• An external manual shut-off valve must be installed between the gas inlet and range so the range's gas
supply can be turned on/off. Installation must allow access to the gas shut-off valve when the unit is in-
stalled and access to the remote circuit-breaker panel/fuse box without moving the range.
• The gas-supply piping and shut-off valve, and the electrical junction box/receptacle must be located so as
not to interfere with the range when it is installed.
• The junction box and gas-shut off valve must be located so the range can be pulled out for service without
being disconnected.
