Ventilation Requirements
Vent Hood Combinations:
It is recommended that these ranges be installed in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood.
Due to the high heat capacity of this unit, particular attention should be paid to the hood and ductwork installation to assure it
meets local building codes.
WARNING: Air curtain or other overhead hoods, which operate by blowing a downward air flow on to a range-
top, shall not be used in conjunction with ranges with gas cooktop other than when the hood and range-top
have been designed, tested and certified by an independent test laboratory for use in combination with each
other. Clearances to horizontal surfaces above the range, measured to the cooking surface are below. Failure
to comply may result in fire hazard.
• Installations without a hood require 30” minimum to combustibles;
• A custom hood installation with exposed horizontal combustible surfaces must have an Auto-On feature;
• For other installations with a hood, refer to the hood installation instructions for specific hood clearances.
Cabinet Preparation
IMPORTANT NOTE: When installing against a combustible surface, a minimum riser is required for a the
range-top, follow all minimum clearances to combustible surfaces shown in the illustration on the previous
pages. The range-top is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances
shown in Figure 1, are required. The same clearances apply to island installations, except for the overhead
cabinets, which must have a space wide enough to accept the flared island hood.
• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.
• When using the island hood a minimum 12” (305 mm) rear clearance to a combustible surface is recommended (see
Figure 2 on page 10, Cabinet Clearances). Clearances from non-combustible materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1
scope. Clearances ofless than 12” (305 mm)must beapproved bythe local codes and/or bythelocal authority having jurisdiction.
• When the range is installed against a combustible side wall a minimum clearance of 8” (203mm) is needed from the side
of the range to the wall.
• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. The
maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13” (330mm).
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the unit.
There is a 48” (1220 mm) minimum clearance required between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an
unprotected cabinet.
A 48-inch minimum clearance is required between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet.
A 30- inch clearance can be used when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than No. 28MSG
sheet steel, 0.015 inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024 inch (0.6 mm) aluminium, or 0.020 inch (0.55 mm) thick copper.
Flame retardant materials bear the mark:
UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC. CLASSIFIED MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS SURFACE CHARACTERISTICS
Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings. These designations are shown as “ FHC ( Flame Spread/Smoke Devel-
oped)”. Materials with “O” flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow other flame spread ratings.

Gas Requirements
QUALIFIED SERVICE MAN OR GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS
SUPPLY CONNECTION.
High Altitude
For altitudes above 2,000 feet (610 m) above sea level, adjustments can be made with the instructions in the manual. If flame
performance is satisfactory, will not be required regulation. It is required that a Certified Professional make the high altitude
adjustments during installation.
Gas line must not come in contact with any components inside back cover of
the range.
If the line pressure supplying the appliance pressure regulator exceeds 14
inches W.C. (any gas), an external regulator must be installed in the gas line
ahead of the appliance regulator to reduce the pressure to no more than 14
inches W.C. Failure to do this can result in malfunction and damage to the
appliance.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-o valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures exceeds, equal to or less than ½ psig
(3.5kPa.) and damage to the appliance.

19 EN
Gas Connection
A manual gas shut-o valve must be installed external to the appliance, in a location accessible from the front, for the purpose
of shutting o the gas supply. The supply line must not interfere with the back of the unit. Make sure the gas supply is turned
o at the manual shut-o valve before connecting the appliance. Use a ¾” (19 mm) flex line (48 Ft max - 1219 mm) to connect
between the gas supply and the appliance gas inlet.
The gas pressure regulator is supplied and already installed with this appliance.The supply piping, except as noted, should
use common National Pipe Thread (N.P.T.).
The appliance gas inlet connection is ½” (12.7 mm) NPT.
For all pipe connections use an approved pipe joint compound resistant to the action of LP gas.
Take care not to apply excessive pressure when tightening the fittings.
IMPORTANT: Never reuse old connectors when installing this range.
To reduce the likelihood of gas leaks, apply teflon tape or a thread compound approved for use with LP or Natural gases to all
threaded connections.
Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas connection between the supply line shut-o valve
and the cooktop inlet.
Check for leaks!
Bubbles appearing around fittings and connections will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, turn o supply line gas shut-o
valve, tighten connections, turn on the supply line gas shuto valve, and retest for leaks. Never test for gas leaks with an open
flame.
NEVER TIGHTEN TO MORE THAN 35 ft lbs OF TORQUE.
