TEMPERATURE
IMPORTANT: This oven has been designed in accordance with the requirements of
temperatures of 194F (90°C).
•Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to withstand the heat
produced by the oven for baking and self-cleaning. Check with your builder
or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor,
delaminate or sustain other damage.
•
withstand at least 200°F (93°C).
•Use an insulated pad or ¼" (0.64 cm) plywood under range if installing range over
carpeting.
GENERAL
•The range should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
•Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of the sides and rear of
the range.
•
cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If
cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range
hood or microwave hood combination that projects horizontally a minimum of 5"
(12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
•
•Do not seal the range to the side cabinets.
•Grounded electrical supply is required. See “Electrical Requirements” section.
•Proper gas supply connection must be available. See “Gas Supply Requirements”
section.

Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord plug.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
WARNING
Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with a (three-prong)
grouding plug for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug.
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 LINE
Provide a gas supply line of ¾" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller size
resist the action of LP gas must be used. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be ½"
(1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in
the system.

Rigid pipe connection:
connection to the range. The rigid pipe must be level with the range connection. All
strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in
line.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be used. The inlet pressure
to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:
Natural gas:
Minimum pressure: 5" Water Column Pressure (WCP)
LP gas:
Minimum pressure: 8" WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.
Burner Input Requirements
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft
(609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each
1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not applicable for Canada).
GAS SUPPLY PRESSURE TESTING
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" Water Column Pressure
(WCP) above the manifold pressure shown on the model/serial rating plate.
Line pressure testing above 0.5 psi gauge (14"WCP)
of 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at 0.5 psi gauge (14"WCP) or lower
The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
system at test pressures equal to or less than 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).
