• This range may be installed directly
adjacent to existing 36” (91.4 cm) high
base cabinets.
IMPORTANT: The side trim MUST be
3/8” (.95 cm) above the adjacent base
cabinet countertop. This can be
accomplished by raising the unit using
the adjustment spindles on the legs.
• The range CANNOT be installed
directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall
cabinets, tall appliances, or other
side vertical surfaces above 36”
(91.4 cm) high. There must be a
minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance from the range to such
combustible surfaces above the
36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
• Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance to combustible vertical
surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm), the
maximum wall cabinet depth
must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall
cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm)
side clearance must be 18”
(45.7 cm) above the 36”
(91.4 cm) high countertop.
• Wall cabinets above the range must be a
minimum of 42” (106.7 cm) above the
range cooking surface for the full width
of the range. This minimum height
requirement does not apply if a range
hood is installed over the cooking surface.
Note: Minimum clearance for back wall is 0”
with backguard or high-shelf.
Note: If a range hood is installed, wall cabinets
above the range have a different minimum
clearance height.
CAUTION
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.

above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the range hood installation
instructions for additional information.
These dimensions provide for safe and

Wall Installation
Important: This range comes standard
with an Island Trim. There must be a
minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) clearance from
rear of range to a combustible wall.
Clearances from non-combustible
materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1
scope and are not certified by CSA.
Clearances to non-combustible materials
must be approved by the authority having
jurisdiction.

Electrical & Gas Requirements
11
Electrical Requirements
Check your national and local codes
regarding this unit. This range requires
120VAC/60 Hz; 4 ft. (121.9 cm), 3-wire cord
with grounded 3-prong plug attached to
unit. See “Electrical Connection” section for
grounding instructions. Must be fused
seperately from any other circuit.
Gas Connection
The gas supply (service) line must be the
same size or greater than the inlet line of the
appliance. This range uses a 1/2” (1.3 cm) ID
NPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all pipe joints
must be resistive to LP gas.
The range is designed specifically for
natural gas or liquid propane (LP) gas.
Before beginning installation verify that
the model is compatible with the
intended
gas supply.
Manual shut-off valve:
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. Any opening behind the
range shall be sealed.
In Massachusetts: A “T” handle type
manual valve must be installed in the gas
supply line to the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Any conversion required
must be performed by your dealer or a
qualified licensed plumber or gas service
company. Please provide the service person
with this manual before work begins.
Pressure Regulator:
• 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.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
HAZARD
To avoid the risk of electrical
shock, personal injury or death;
verify electrical power is turned off at the
breaker box and gas supply is turned off
until the range is installed and ready to
operate, installation by an authorized
installer only.

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 Massachusetts: This appliance must be
installed with a 36” (3-foot) long flexible
gas connector.

General Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL WARNING
AND CAUTION INFORMATION
WHEN INSTALLING THIS APPLIANCE.
• All openings in the wall behind the
appliance and in the floor under the
appliance must be sealed.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
Moving, Handling, and Unpacking
Remove and discard all packing materials,
including cardboard and tape on the outside
and inside of the range.
Remove the burner grates and styrofoam
off the top cooking surface. Be sure to
remove the burner caps packaged in
styrofoam below the burner grates.
Do not discard the anti-tip
metal bracket supplied with the
range. This is the anti-tip device
and must be installed with the unit. Refer to
“Anti-tip Device Installation” section.
Some stainless steel parts may have a plastic
protective wrap which must be peeled off.
The interior should be washed thoroughly
with hot, soapy water to remove film
residues and any dust or debris before being
used, then rinsed and wiped dry. Solutions
stronger than soap and water are rarely
needed.
CAUTION
Avoid any damage to oven vents. The vents
need to be unobstructed and open to
provide proper airflow for optimal oven
performance.
CAUTION
The cooling fan should be operating when
the unit is in operation. If you notice the
cooling fan is not operating or you observe
unusual or excessive noise coming from the
cooling fan, contact an authorized service
center before continuing operation. Failure
to do so can result in damage to the oven or
surrounding cabinets.

14
NOTICE
