Whirlpool 316002904 - Manual (Page 3)

c e n t e r l i n e
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" rigid
pipe to the range location. A smaller size
pipe on long runs may result in insufficient
gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds made for
use with L.P. gas must be used. With L.P.
gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2"
minimum. L.P. gas suppliers usually
determine the size and materials used on
the system.
If local codes permit, a new A.G.A.
design-certified, 4 - 5 foot long, 1 /2" or 3/4“
I.D., flexible metal appliance connector is
recommended for connecting this range to
the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage
the flexible tubing when moving the range.
A 1 /2" male pipe thread is needed for
connection to pressure regulator
female pipe threads.

I ■ The supply line shall be equipped with
an approved shutoff valve. This valve
should be located in the same room as the
range and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do Not
block access to shutoff valve.
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 range. All strains must
be removed from the supply and fuel lines
so range will be level and in line.
H
The regulator must be checked at
a minimum of 1-inch water column above
the set pressure. The inlet pressure to the
regulator should be as follows for operation;
NATURAL GAS:
Set pressure 5 inches
Maximum pressure 14 inches
L.P. GAS:
Set pressure 11 inches
Maximum pressure 14 inches
I
Line pressure testing:
Testing above 1 /2 psi (gauge)
The range and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing
of that system at test pressures greater
than 1 /2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at 1/2 psi (gauge)
The range must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less
than 1 /2 psig (3.5 kPa).

A WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required on this
appliance.
• Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can
result in fire, electrical shock, or other
personal injury.
• Check with a qualified electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
• Do Not modify the power supply cord
plug. If it does not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
• Do Not use an extension cord with this
appliance.
• Do Not hove a fuse in the neutral or
grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral
or grounding circuit could result in an
electrical shock.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in a fire, electrical shock or other
personal injury.
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere, fused
electrical supply is required. A time-delay
fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate within
wide voltage limits, but proper grounding
and polarity are necessary. In addition to
checking that the outlet provides 120-volt
power and is correctly grounded, the outlet
must be checked by a qualified electrician
to see if it is wired with correct polarity.
The wiring diagram is found on a separate
sheet in the literature package. The wiring
diagram and Tech Sheet can also be found
on the rear wall of the storage drawer.
Recommended
grounding method
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD
GROUNDING PRONG.
For personal safety, 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 3-prong, grounding-
type wall receptacle, grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition* and all
local codes and ordinances. If a mating
wall receptacle is not available, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have a properly grounded,
3-prong wall receptacle installed by
a
qualified electrician.

I ■ Remove shipping materials, tape
and protective film from range. Keep
cardboard shipping base under range.
Remove oven racks and shipping materials
from inside oven.
■ Adjust the leveling legs to a point
where the range base does not touch the
floor.
À WARNING
To prevent tipping, instaii range anti-tip
bracket.
Anti-tip bracket must be attached to a
wood or metai wait stud, or concrete
or concrete biock wait.
Do Not attach anti-tip bracket to a
cabinet.
Save these instaiiation Instructions. If
range is moved to a new location, the
anti-tip bracket must be reinstalled in
the new location.
■ To mount anti-tip bracket to wood or
metal wall stud; Find the wall stud that is
closest to the center of the range location.
(Note; Wall stud should
Not be more than 12
inches to the right or left of center of range
location.) Measure and mark at the center
of the wall stud a distance of 44-5/8 inches
up from the floor.
To mount anti-tip bracket to concrete or
concrete block wall;
Measure and mark on
the rear wall at the center of the range
location a distance 44-5/8 inches up from
the floor. (Note; Anti-tip bracket may
Not
be installed more than 12 inches to the right
or left of center of range location.)
A WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
* Take special care when drilling holes
into the wall. Electrical wires may be
concealed behind the wall covering.
• Locate the electrical circuits that could
be affected by the installation of this
bracket and turn off the power to these
circuits.
Failure to follow these instructions may
result in electrical shock or other
personal injury.
A CAUTION
Property Damage
• Contact a qualified installer for the best
procedure to drill mounting holes
through the type of covering (i.e.
ceramic tile) and into wall stud,
concrete or concrete block wall.
• Before moving range across floor,
check that range is on shipping base
or slide range onto cardboard or
hardboard.
Failure to follow these instructions may
result in damage to wall or floor covering.
44 - 5 / 8 "
■ Line up the
“TOP" mounting
hole on anti-tip
bracket with mark
on wall. Use a
pencil to mark the
location of the top and
bottom mounting holes.
Remove bracket.
If wall covering is
ceramic tile, drill a 3/16-inch hole through
tile only. Then proceed as follows;
For wood or metal wall studs:
Drill 1 /8-inch holes at each mounting hole
location through wall and into stud.
For concrete or concrete block wall:
Drill 3/16-inch holes (1-3/4-inch minimum
deep) at each mounting hole location.
Tap plastic anchors into mounting holes
with hammer.
■ Line up holes on
bracket with holes on
wall, making sure that
the “TOP" mounting
hole on bracket is lined
up with top hole in wall.
Securely fasten bracket
to wall using screws provided
■ Plug range power supply cord into
grounded outlet. Carefully slide range into
position until range is approximately 2 inches
from rear wall. Remove shipping base,
cardboard or hardboard from under the
range.
m ■ Push cable,
located on rear of
range, up and into the
two hooks on the anti­
tip bracket. Check that cable is secure in
both hooks by pulling cable towards range.
If cable comes out of hooks, reposition
cable to insure that cable fits securely in
both anti-tip bracket hooks. Slide range into
final position.
