• For these gas range models, a neutral supply wire
must be provided from the power source (breaker/fuse
panel) because critical range components, including
the surface burner spark reignition modules, require
120 VAC to operate safely and properly.
WARNING
An improper 120 VAC power supply will cause
malfunction, damage to this appliance, and
possibly create a condition of shock hazard.
• If the correct power supply circuit is not provided, it is
the responsibility and obligation of the installer and
user to have proper power supply connected. This
must be accomplished in accordance with all
applicable local codes and ordinances by a qualified
electrician. In the absence of local codes and
ordinances, the power supply connection shall be in
accordance with the National Electrical Code.
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances when
grounding. In the absence of these codes or
ordinances observe National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA No. 70 current issue.
• Electric wiring diagrams and schematics have been
placed in the toe kick area of the range for access by a
qualified service technician.
• Before you plug in an electrical cord, be sure all
controls are in the OFF position.
• For appliances equipped with a cord and plug, do not
cut or remove the ground prong. It must be plugged
into a matching grounding type receptacle to avoid
electrical shock. If there is any doubt as to whether the
wall receptacle is properly grounded, the customer
should have it checked by a qualified electrician.
• Installer — show the owner the location of the circuit
breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
Important:
Dedicated 20 AMP service is required for range with
electric griddle.
Step 7: Backguard Installation
• The backguard must be attached before sliding the
range into the final, installed position. A Low Back or
Pot-and-Pan Shelf must be installed when there is less
than 12" clearance from a combustible back wall and
the back of the range above the cooking surface.
• A Flush Island Trim is available for covering the back
area of the range for island installations; however, the
Flush Island Trim can only be used where there is a
minimum of 12" horizontal clearance between a
combustible back wall and the back of the range.
• The backguard is inserted inside the guide channels on
the back of the range, as shown in the illustration.
(Remove the griddle plate for sufficient installation
clearance on griddle models.) Using a T-20 size Torx
driver, fasten the backguard with four (4) Torx-head
screws to the range‘s side panels, two (2) screws to the
range‘s back panel, and four (4) screws to the area
around the cooling blower.
• To secure the front of the backguard, install three (3) of
the Torx head screws through the lower front panel of
the backguard, into the flange at the back of the
range’s cooktop.
• The Pot-and-Pan Shelf requires pre-assembly of the
top panel to the shell using nine (9) of the enclosed
Torx-head screws. For sufficient load strength, YOU
MUST attach the two (2) Torx-head screws through the
back corners of the top down into the shell.
• The Pot-and-Pan Shelf provides a shelf above the
cooktop to keep foods hot or store cooking pans.
OBSERVE CAUTIONS.
