Gas supply
requirements
Observe all governing codes
and ordinances
A WARNING
Fire Hazard
• Range must be connected to a
regulated gas supply.
• L.P. gas supply must Not exceed a
pressure of 14" water column. This must
be checked by a qualified technician
before Installing the range.
• Do Not use an open flame to test for
leaks from gas connections.
• New, A.G.A. design-certified, flexible
gas line should be used when codes
permit.
Failure to follow these Instructions could
result In a fire, explosion or personal Injury.
This installation must conform with
local codes and ordinances. In the
absence of local codes, installations must
conform with American Nationai Standard,
Nationai Fuei Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 — latest
edition.**

Input ratings shown on the
seriai/rating piate are for elevations up to
2.000 feet. For eievations above 2,000 feet,
ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each
1.000 feet above sea levei.
This range is design-certified by
A.G.A. for NATURAL and L.P. gases with
appropriate conversion. The seriai/rating
plate located under the cooktop has
information for the type of gas that can be
used. If this information does not agree with
the type of gas available, check with the
local gas supplier. See Panel C and back
cover for gas conversion instructions.
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-certitied, 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-inch male
pipe thread is needed for connection to
pressure regulator female pipe threads.

■ ■ 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.

The inlet pressure must be a
minimum of 1 inch above the set pressure of
the regulator, a maximum of 14 inches total
inlet pressure.
Set Pressure:
Natural Gas 4 Inches
L.P. Gas 10 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).
Electrical
Requirements
A WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground Is required on this
appliance.
• Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
• 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 have a fuse In the neutral or
grounding circuit. A fuse In the neutral or
grounding circuit could result In an
electrical shock.
• Do Not use an extension cord with this
appliance.
• Check with a qualified electrician If you
are In doubt as to whether the appliance
Is properly grounded.
Failure to follow these Instructions could
result In a fire, electrical shock or other
personal Injury.
If codes permit and a separate
grounding wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the
grounding path is adequate.
A 12CFvolt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere, fused
elecfricai supply is required. A time-deiay
fuse or circuit breaker is recommended, it is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving oniy 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 can also be found on the back of
the range.
Recommended
grounding method
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. (See Figure
1.) 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.

A
WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
• To reduce the risk of tipping of the
appliance, the appliance must be
secured by properly Installed floor-
mounted antl-tip brackets supplied with
the range.
• Save these Installation Instructions. If
range Is moved to a new location, the
antl-tip brackets must be removed and
reinstalled In the new location.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Take special care when drilling holes
Into the floor. Electrical wires or
plumbing may be located beneath
floor.
• Locate the electrical circuits that could
be affected by the Installation of these
brackets and turn off 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 your type of floor covering.
• 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 floor covering.
