5. W hen ai! connections have been made, m ake sure

ali range controls are in the off position and turn on the
m ain gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at ail

joints and connections to check for leaks in the system .

CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAM E TO CHECK
FOR GAS LEAKS.

W hen using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to
pressure-test the gas supply system of the residence,
disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve
from the gas supply piping. W hen using test pres­
sures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply system ,
sim ply isolate the range from the gas supply system
by closing the individual shut-off valve.

Step 3

Electrical Connections

Electrical Requirem ents:

120-volt, 60-Hz, properly grounded branch circuit pro­

tected by a 15-am p or 20-am p circuit breaker or tim e­
delay fuse,

Extension Cord Cautions:

Because of potential safety hazards associated with
certain conditions, we strongly recomm end against
the use of an extension cord. However, if you still elect
to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary
that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-type appliance
extension cord and that the current carrying rating of
the cord in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than,
the branch circuit rating.

Grounding— IMPORTANT (Please read carefully):

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE M UST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug that mates with a stan­

dard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to m ini­
m ize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this
appliance.

The custom er should have the wall receptacle and cir­

cuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.

W here

a

standard

two-prong

wall

receptacle

is

encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obli­
gation of the custom er to have it replaced with a prop­
erly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM

THE POW ER CORD.

W itf Be Disconnected INFREQUENTLY:

An adapter m ay be used only on a 15-am p circuit. Do

not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit W here local
codes perm it, a TEM PORARY CONNECTION m ay
be m ade to a properly grounded two-prong wail
receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, avaiiable
at m ost hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter
m ust be aligned with the larger slot in the wall recep­
tacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the
power cord

PRSFeRRSD METHOD

TEWIPORARY METHOD

Adapter piugs not
permitted in Canada

Align large prongs/slots

CF' Ensure proper

ground and

iifiTi

connection

before use

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal
to the wail receptacle cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the cover screw is

m etal and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is

grounded through the house wiring. The custom er

should have the circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to m ake sure the receptacle is properly
grounded

W hen disconnecting the power cord from the adapter,
always hold the adapter with one hand If this is not
done, the adapter ground term inal is very likely to

break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO
NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has
again been established
