Installation safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe the following
precautions.
• Have your range installed and properly grounded by a
qualied installer, in accordance with the installation
instructions. Any adjustment and service should be
performed only by qualied gas range installers or
service technicians.
• Do not attempt to service, modify, or replace your range or any part of your range unless
it is specically recommended in this manual. All other service should be referred to a
qualied technician.
• Always use new exible connectors when installing a gas appliance. Do not use old exible
connectors.
• Make sure the Anti-Tip device is properly installed on the range. See the installation
instructions for more information.
• Due to the size and weight of the range, have two or more people move the range.
• Remove all tape and packaging materials.
• Remove all accessories from the cooktop, oven, and/or lower drawer. Grates and griddles are
heavy. Use caution when handling them.
• Make sure no parts came loose during shipping. Do not install in an area exposed to dripping
water or outside weather conditions.
• Make sure your range is correctly installed and adjusted by a qualied service technician
or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) you will use. For your range to utilize LP gas,
the installer must replace the 5 surface burner orices and 2 oven orices with the provided
LP orice set, and reverse the GPR adapter. These adjustments must be made by a qualied
service technician in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and
requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. The qualied agency performing this work
assumes the gas conversion responsibility.
• Installation of this range must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA.54, latest edition. In Canada, installation
must conform with the current Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the current
Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2, and with local codes where applicable. This
range has been design-certied by ETL according to ANSI Z21.1, latest edition, and Canadian

Location safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe the following
precautions.
• This range is for indoor, household use only. Do not
install the range in areas exposed to the weather and/
or water.
• Do not install the range in a place which is exposed to
a strong draft.
• Select a level, well-constructed oor that can support
the range’s weight. Synthetic ooring, such as linoleum,
must withstand 180 °F (82 °C) temperatures without
shrinking, warping, or discoloring. Do not install the
range directly over interior kitchen carpeting unless a
sheet of ¼ inch plywood or a similar insulator is placed
between the range and carpeting.
• Select a location where a grounded, 3-prong outlet is easily accessible.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper blinds on that
window.
• Do not block or cover the vents (air openings) located at the rear of the range and at the top
and bottom of the door. The vents allow for air circulation that is necessary for the range
to operate properly with correct combustion. Blocking or covering the vents may cause
incorrect combustion which could result in gas leaks and re.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 200 °F (93 °C)
generated by the range.
• Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet storage
above the range is necessary, allow a minimum clearance of 40 inches (102 cm) between
the cooking surface and the bottom of the cabinets or install a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
• Locate the range out of kitchen trafc paths and drafty locations to prevent poor air
