INSTALLATIONmELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against the use of an
extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary that it is a UL
listed 3-wire grounding-type appliance
extension cord and that the current
carrying rating of the cord in amperes
is equivalent to or greater than the
branch circuit rating. Such extension
cords are obtainable through your local
appliance dealer.
IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS
APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY
GROUNDED.
[] An adequate electrical supply and
outlet must be used to operate the
electrical parts of your range.
• The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a three-prong (grounding)
plug which must be used with a properly
grounded three-hole outlet with standard
120Volt, 60 cycle AC household current.
• When a standard two-prong wall
receptacle is encountered, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to have it replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle by a qualified electrician.
Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove grounding prong from the range
cord. Failure to provide proper ground
may create a hazardous condition.

[] PRESSURE TEST INFORMATION
The maximum allowable supply pressure for
the regulator is 14"W.C. The minimum supply
pressure needed to check the regulator setting
is 7" W.C. for natural gas and 10" W.C. for LP gas.
WARNING: The range and its
individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the gas supply system at
test pressures of more than 1/2 psig (pounds
per square inch gauge). The range must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply system at
test pressures equal to or greater than 1/2
psig. NOTE: 1/2 psig =13.855" w.c.
[] CHECK THE IGNITERS

turned out of the LITE position.
c. Try each valve separately until all burners
have been checked.
[] BURNER IGNITION
Cool{top Spark Ignition--When you turn
the cool{top knob to LITE, the spark igniter
makes a series of electric sparks (ticking
sounds) which light the burner. During a
power failure the burners will not light
automatically. In an emergency, a cool{top
burner may be lit with a match by following
the steps below.
WARNING: Lighting gas burners
with a match is dangerous. You should match
light the cool{top burners only in an
emergency.
a. Light a match and hold the flame near the
burner you want to light. Wooden matches
work best.
b. Push in and turn the control knob slowly.
Be sure you are turning the correct knob
for the burner you are lighting.
NOTE: If the burner does not light within
five seconds, turn the knob off and wait five
minutes before trying again.
[] BURNER FLAMES
Turn each burner on. Turn each burner knob
to the high position. Flames should be blue
in color with little or no trace of yellow. The
burner flames should not flutter or blow away
from the burner. The inner cone of the flame
should be between 1/2" and 3/4" long. If the
burner flames are yellow in color or not the
