Be sure all packing materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke
damage should the packing material ignite.
■ Have the installer show you the location of
the range gas cut-off valve and how to shut
it off if necessary.
■ Have your range installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer, in
accordance with the Installation Instructions.
Any adjustment and service should be
performed only by qualified gas range
installers or service technicians.
■ Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded
outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt
about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have an ungrounded
outlet replaced with a properly grounded,
three-prong outlet in accordance with the
National Electrical Code NFPA–70 latest
edition. In Canada, the appliance must be
electrically grounded in accordance with
the Canadian Electrical Code. Do not use
an extension cord with this appliance.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
■ Locate range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prevent pilot
outage (on standing pilot models) and
poor air circulation.
■ Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a
qualified service technician or installer for
the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be
used. Your range can be converted for use
with either type of gas. See the Installation
Instructions.
■ WARNING: These adjustments must be
made by a qualified service technician in
accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions and all codes and requirements
of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in
serious injury or property damage. The
qualified agency performing this work
assumes responsibility for the conversion.
■ After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind of
use. Never install the range over vinyl tile or
linoleum that cannot withstand such type
of use. Never install it directly over interior
kitchen carpeting.
■ Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a range is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the door, broiler drawer or range
top. They could damage the range and
even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
■ Clean only parts listed in this manual.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or
explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
All ranges can tip and injury could result. To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach an
approved Anti-Tip device to the floor. (See Installation Instructions.)
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The Anti-Tip
device should engage and prevent the range from tipping over.
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device is engaged when
you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range tipping over
if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.
