• See installation instructions.
C A U T I O N
BURN HAZARD
To avoid risk of personal injury;
the use of cabinets for storage
above the appliance may result
in a potential burn hazard. Combustible
items may ignite, metallic items may become
hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is
to be provided the risk can be reduced by
installing a rangehood that projects
horizontally a minimum 5” (12.7 cm) beyond
the bottom of cabinets.
NOTICE
DO NOT use the handle or oven door to lift
the range. Remove door before installation
to ensure that it is not used to lift the unit.
DO NOT lift or carry the door by the handle.
Removing the door must be done by your

certified gas installer.
IMPORTANT– Please Read and Follow (cont.)
Performance
Checklist
A qualified installer should carry out the following
checks:
NCheck top burner ignition.
See drawing for proper
flame height on HI. The
low flame should light at every
port.
NCheck oven bake function—
bake element on full power
center and outside broil elements at partial power.
NConvection bake function—bake and broil
elements the same with the convection fan on.
NCheck TruConvec™ function—TruConvec
element (behind convection fan cover) on and
convection fan on.
NCheck HI broil function–both broil elements at
full power.
NCheck LOW broil function—inner broil
element only.
NCheck convection broil function—both broil
elements at full power with convection fan on.
NCheck self-clean function—door will lock in
approximately 30 seconds the center and outside
broil elements will turn on and the bake element
will turn on at partial power. Check broil elements
through window to make sure they are on then
abort self-clean cycle to unlock door.
NOTICE
hen conducting performance test, DO NOT
run self-clean cycle for more than 10
minutes with oven racks inside oven. This
could cause them to discolor due to the high
temperature required for self-cleaning.
Electrical & Gas
Requirements (cont.)
Manual shut-off valv :
This installer-supplied valve must be installed in the gas
service line before the appliance in the gas stream and
in a location where it can be reached quickly in the
event of an emergency.
In Massachus tts: A “T” handle type manual
valve must be installed in the gas supply line to the
appliance.
IMPORTANT: Any conv rsion r quir d must b
p rform d by your d al r or a qualifi d lic ns d
plumb r or gas s rvic company. Please provide the
service person with this manual before work begins.
Pr ssur R gulator:
• All heavy-duty commercial type cooking equipment
must have a pressure regulator on the incoming
service line for safe and efficient operation since
service pressure may fluctuate with local demand.
External regulators are not required on this range
since a regulator is built into each unit at the factory.
Under no condition bypass this built-in regulator.
• Manifold pressure should be checked with a
manometer natural gas requires 5.0” W.C.P. and LP
gas requires 10.0” W.C.P. Incoming line pressure
upstream from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P.
higher than the manifold pressure in order to check
the regulator. The regulator used on this range can
withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2” PSI
(14.0” W.C.P.). If the line pressure is in excess of that
amount a step down regulator will be required.
• The appliance must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system.
Fl xibl Conn ctions:
If the unit is to be installed with flexible couplings
and/or quick-disconnect fittings the installer must use
a heavy-duty AGA design-certified flexible connector of
at least 1/2” (1.3 cm) ID NPT (with suitable strain reliefs)
in compliance with ANSI Z21.41 and Z21.69.
In Canada: CAN 1-6 10-88 metal connectors for
gas appliances and CAN 1-6.9 M79 quick disconnect
devices for use with gas fuel.
In Massachus tts: This appliance must be installed
with a 36” (3-foot) long flexible gas connector.

substances always operate this unit according to the
instructions contained in this book and provide good
ventilation
Gas Conn ction
The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or
