INSTRUCTIONS
FOR 24” GAS BUILT-IN WALL OVEN (Short Model1
Before you begin, read the following instruc-
tions completely and carefully. If followed, they
will simplify the installation job.
IMPORTANT: OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING
CODES AND ORDINANCES.
Input ratings shown on the rating plate [serial taglare for elevatrons
up to 2,OflCl feet. For elevatrons above 2,000 feet. ratings should be
reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level.

This lnstallatlon must conform with the American Natlonal Stand-
ard, Natlonal Fuel Gas Code ANSI 2223.1-l 980’ and local codes
and ordinances.
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION REDUIREMENTS ARE
LISTED ON PAGE 4.
Thus unit IS manufactured for use with NATURAL GAS. It
can be converted for use on LP GAS. The rating plate lo-
cated under the marn top has the information on the type
of gas this unit can be used with. When in doubt check
with your local gas supplier.
Provide a gas supply line to the unit location. We suggest
using a 74” rigid pipe, as smaller size pipe on long runs may
result In the gas supply not being sufficient. Pipe lolnt
compounds resistant to the action of LP gas must be
used.
The supply line should be equipped with a shutoff valve.
This valve should always be located in the same room as
the range and should be in a locatron that allows ease of
opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff
valve.
If local codes permit, It is recommended that flexible
metal tubing design-certified by the American Gas Asso-
ciation, be used for connecting the appliance to the gas
supply line. (The gas valve connection will accept a 3%”
male pipe thread.1
If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a combination of
pipe fittings must be used to obtain an In-line connection
to the unit.
The gas pressure regulator on this model is convertible
and must be used. This regulator can be used on either
NATURAL or LP gases. The pressure regulator has fixed
outlet pressure at NATURAL and LP settings and these
cannot be changed. The fixed outlet pressure on NATU-
RAL gas setting is 4 Inches W.C. On the LP gas setting
the outlet pressure IS 10 inches W.C.

INLET PRESSURE
The Inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows
for both operation and checking regulator setting:
NATURAL GAS:
Minimum pressure 5 inches W.C.
Maximum pressure 14 Inches W.C.
LP GAS:
MInImum pressure 11 Inches WC.
Maximum pressure 14 Inches W.C.
LINE PRESSURE TESTING
a. Testing ABOVE 3/4 Pound Per Square Inch
(Gauge1
The appliance and its indlvldual shutoff valve must be
dlsconnected from the gas supply piping system dur-
Ing any pressure testing of that system at test pres-
sures In excess of % psig.
b. Testing AT l/2 Pound Per Square Inch (Gauge)
OR LOWER
The appliance must be Isolated from the gas supply
plplng system by closing its indlvldual manual shutoff
valve during pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressure equal to or less than l/z pslg.
To convert from NATURAL to LP gas.
a. Change pressure regulator setting from NATURAL
to LP [See To Convert Pressure Regulator.)
b. Screw the burner orlflces hoods down tight against
the orifice pins. DO NOT OVER TORQUE.
c. Remove the oven control knob and the porcelain panel
and turn the select-a-gas screw to the LP posItIon.
This screw Is locatedon theovencontrolfthermostatl.
The mid posItIon turns the oven pilot off.
d. Adjust the burner air shutter to the widest opening
that will not cause the flame to lift or blow off of the
burner
To convert the pressure regulator. Note: The type of gas
for which the regulator IS set IS stamped on the aluminum
plug on the top of the regulator (either NAT or LPI.
To change the regulator setting:
Remove the aluminum hex nut [plug] with a wrench or
coin. Turn the hex nut or plug over and screw It back Into
the regulator. Caution: Do not over tighten.
If the unit IS to be used on a NATURAL gas, NAT should
be vlslble on the regulator plug. If the unit is to be used
on LP gas, LP should be visible on the regulator plug.
OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING CODES
AND ORDINANCES
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A 1 15 Volt, 60 Hz. AC only, 15 Ampere fused electrical sup-
ply is required [time delay fuse or circuit breaker is recom-
mended]. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance be provided. DO NOT use an extension
cord.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING
METHOD
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND
PRONG.
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded.
This appliance IS equipped with a power supply cord having
a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard,
the cord must be plugged into a mating 3prong grounding
type wall receptacle, grounded In accordance with the Na-
tlonal ElectrIcal Code, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-1961 l * and
local codes and ordinances. If a mating receptacle is not
available, it IS the personal responsiblllty and obllgatlon of
the customer to have a properly grounded 3-prong wall re-
ceptacle installed by a quaIlfled electrician. See Figure I.

SPACE REQUIREMENTS
I. Do not install beneath work counter.
NOTE: The recess in which the oven is to be Installed
shall be constructed so as to provide a complete closure
around the recessed portion of the unit, except for the
vent thimble whenexternallyvented.Anyopenlngsaround
gas and electric service outlets shall be closed at the
time of installation. Atr for combustion enters at the
extreme bottom of the front panel. Do not block or ob-
struct this opening.
2. Refer to Figure 2 for the size of the cabinet opening needed
and the location of the gas and electrical supply.
REMOVE SHIPPING SKID AND
AND PACKING MATERIAL
Using the 4 carton corner posts (stack 2 high) lay the unit
on Its back. Remove the four shipping skid bolts.
Remove all packing material, tape and protective film on
some chrome plated or stainless steel parts before the unit
IS Installed.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Move the unit to its approximate operating posItIon. [See
Venting Instruction, below, If unit IS to be vented to out-
sldel.
2. ANCHORING UNIT IN CABINET
a. Level and equally space the unit from each side of cut-
out in the cabinet.
b. Anchor unit In cabinet with four special screws, which
are shipped with the unit. [NOTE: The screws may be
slanted slightly to catch wood cabinet on each side
of cabinet cutout.1
3. Connect the gas supply line.
4. Plug the range power supply cord into the grounded re-
ceptacle.
5. Check for gas leaks with soapy water.
When the unit IS connected, and all gas valves have been
closed, turn on main supply, but before lighting the oven or
putting it to use, test all supply line connectlons and unit
itself for leaks. This unit has been factory tested for leaks,
but sometlmes connectlons work loose In transit. NEVER
TEST FOR FOR LEAKS WITH A LIGHTED MATCH OR
OTHER FLAME. Apply a thin solution of soapy water, If any
leaks are present, bubbles will form at the point of leakage.
If a leak is discovered it must be stopped before the unit IS
put into operation. After checking for leaks, wipe the soap
solution off of the components, Joint compounds used must
resistant to the action of liquifled petroleum gases. Any
opening in the wall or floor, behind or under the unit must be
sealed.
