i Provide an adequate Gas Supply
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed
to operate on 4°(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa)
Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure
regulator is connected to the range manifold and MUST
be connected in series with the gas supply line. If LP/
Propane conversion kit has been used, follow instructions
provided with the kit for converting the pressure
regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14°(35,56 cm) of
water column pressure (3.5 kPa). The inlet pressure to the
regulator must be at least 1" (25 kPa) greater than the
regulator manifold pressure setting. Examples: If regulator
is set for natural gas 4°(10,16 cm) manifold pressure, inlet
pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm); if regulator has
been converted for LP/Propane gas 10"(25,4 cm) manifold
pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 11° (27,9 cm).
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4.
The gas supply line should be %" or 34" LD. (Interior Dia.)
The gas supply piping can be through the back wall
(Fig. 2, zone 1) or through the floor (Fig. 2, zone 2):
Zone 1 - Through the Back Wall (7" X 6") - The best
place to have your gas line in is between 1" (2.5 cm) and
8" (20.3cm) from the floor and within 3" (7.6 cm) from
the center line.
Zone 2 - Through the Floor ~2" X 24") - The gas line
can also come through the floor within 12" (30.5 cm)
from the center line against the back wall. In case, you
can remove the "L" shape piece of metal at the bottom
metal portion at the back of the unit. There is absolutely
no problem removing this "L" shape piece of metal, it is
there to protect the gas line especially during transport.

EET Operation of Oven Burners and Oven
Adjustments
11.5.1 Electric Ignition Burners
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
range and supply line connectors have been carefully
checked for leaks, and range has been connected to
electric power.
The oven burner is equipped with an electric control systern
as well as an electric oven burner igniter. ff your model is
equipped with a waist-high broil burner igniter, it will also
have an electric burner igniter. These control systems require
no adjustment. When the oven is set to operate, current
will flow to the igniter. It will "glow" similar to a light bulb.
When the igniter has reached a temperature sufficient to
ignite gas, the electrically controlled oven valve will open
and flame will appear at the oven burner. There is a time
lapse from 30 to 60 seconds after thermostat is turned ON
before the flame appears at the oven burner. When the oven
reaches the display setting, the glowing igniter will go off.
The burner flame will go “out” in 20 to 30 seconds after
igniter goes "OFF". To maintain any given oven temperature,
this cycle will continue as long as the display is set to operate.
After removing all packing materials and literature from
the oven:
a) Set the oven to BAKE at 300°F. See Use & Care Guide
for operating instructions.
b) Within 60 seconds the oven burner should ignite.
Check for proper flame, and allow the burner to cycle
once. Reset controls to off.
c) If your model is equipped with a high-waist broiler,
set oven to broil. See Use & Care Guide for operating
instructions.
d) Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite. Check
for proper flame. Reset controls to off.

30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(Models with Sealed Top Burners)
EPA Anti-Tip Brackets Installation
Instructions
EET Models Equipped with Leveling Device
AWA To reduce the risk of tipping of the range,
the range must be secured to the floor by properly
installed anti-tio bracket and screws packed with the
range. These parts are located in the oven. Failure to
install the anti-tio bracket will allow the range to tip over
if excessive weight is placed on an open door or if a child
climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled hot
liquids or from the range itself.
Follow the instructions below to install the anti-tip
brackets.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-
tip brackets must also be moved and installed with the
range.
Tools Required:
Adjustable Wrench
Ratchet
Drill & 1/8"(0,32 cm) bit
5/16" (0,8 cm) Nutdriver
Level
The anti-tip bracket attaches to the floor at the back of
the range to prevent range from tipping. When fastening
bracket to the floor, be sure that screws do not penetrate
electrical wiring or plumbing. The screws provided will
work in either wood or concrete.

. Draw a center line (CL) on the floor where the range
should be installed. Also draw a line on the floor at the
range back position if there is no wall.
. Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor
with the right rear corner positioned exactly on the
intersection of the center and back lines you just drew
before. (Use the diagram below to locate brackets if
template is not available (Figure 14)).
. Mark on the floor the location of the 4 mounting
holes shown on the template. For easier installation,
3/16"(0,48 cm) diameter pilot holes 1/2"(1,27 cm)
deep can be drilled into the floor.
. Remove template and place bracket on floor. Line up
holes in bracket with marks on floor and attach with
4 screws provided. Bracket must be secured to solid
floor (Figure 15). If attaching to concrete floor, first drill
3/16"(0,48 cm) dia. pilot holes using masonry drill bit.
. Be sure the 4 leveling legs are at the highest position
they can be.
. Slide range into place making sure structure of the
range is trapped by the anti-tip bracket (Figure 15).
Lower the range by adjusting the 4 leveling legs until
the underside of the cooktop is sitting level on the
countertop. Refer to “Leveling the Range” section.
. After installation, verify that the anti-tip bracket is
engaged by grasping the top rear edge of the range
and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure
range is properly anchored.
