SAFE SERVICING PRACTICES - ALL APPLIANCES
To avoid personal injury and/or property damage, it is important that Safe Servicing
Practices be observed. The following are some limited examples of safe practices:
1. DO NOT attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to
complete it in a safe and satisfactory manner.
2. Before servicing or moving an appliance:
• Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet, trip the circuit breaker to
the OFF position, or remove the fuse.
• Turn off the gas supply.
• Turn off the water supply.
3. Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.
4. USE ONLY REPLACEMENT PARTS CATALOGED FOR THIS APPLIANCE.
SUBSTITUTIONS MAY DEFEAT COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY
STANDARDS SET FOR HOME APPLIANCES.
5. GROUNDING: The standard color coding for safety ground wires is GREEN,
or GREEN with YELLOW STRIPES. Ground leads are not to be used as current
carrying conductors. It is EXTREMELY important that the service technician
reestablish all safety grounds prior to completion of service. Failure to do so
will create a hazard.
6. Prior to returning the product to service, ensure that:
• All electrical connections are correct and secure
• All electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp
edges, high-temperature components, and moving parts
• All non-insulated electrical terminals, connectors, heaters, etc. are
adequately spaced away from all metal parts and panels
• All safety grounds (both internal and external) are correctly and securely
connected
• All panels are properly and securely reassembled

SECTION A - 30" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION AND SERVICE MUST BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER.
IMPORTANT: SAVE FOR LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR'S USE.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
If the information in this manual is not followed
exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage,
personal injury or death.
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
— Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
— WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in
your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone.
Follow the gas supplier's instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
— Installation and service must be performed by a qualified
installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
Clearances and Dimensions
1. Location—Check location
where the range will be
installed. Check for proper
electrical and gas supply,
and the stability of the floor.
2. Dimensions that are shown
must be used. Given
dimensions provide
minimum clearance. Contact
surface must be solid and
level.
Provide Proper Fuel Type
Before Proceeding: Your range is preset to operate on natural
gas only. Some models are shipped convertible with parts and
conversion instructions supplied. Other models have a LP/Propane
Conversion Kit available through your dealer.
DO NOT attempt to convert this range to LP/Propane
settings without the proper LP/Propane conversion kit provided with
the range or obtained from your dealer. Follow all instructions
provided with the conversion kit.

Important Notes to the Installer
1. Read all instructions contained in these installation
instructions before installing range.
2. Remove all packing material from the oven
compartments before connecting the gas and
electrical supply to the range.
3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Never leave children alone or
unattended in the area where an appliance is in
use. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use
of all appliances. Never leave the oven door open when
the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the
doors or drawers of this range can result in serious
injuries and can also cause damage to the range.
4. Be sure to leave these instructions with the
consumer.
Important Note to the Consumer
1. Keep these instructions with your owner's guide for
future reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this range must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edition when installed
in the United States.
This range has been design certified by CSA
International. As with any appliance using gas and
generating heat, there are certain safety precautions
you should follow. You will find them in the Use & Care
Manual, read it carefully.
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• This range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their
absence, with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA No .70—latest edition when
installed in the United States. See Grounding
Instructions on page 19.
• Before installing the range in an area covered
with linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can
withstand heat at least 90°F above room
temperature without shrinking, warping or
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting
unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4inch thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range
can withstand the heat generated by the range.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at
the oven vent nor around the base or beneath
the lower front panel of the range. Avoid touching
the vent openings or nearby surfaces as they may
become hot while the oven is in operation. This
range requires fresh air for proper burner
combustion.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the range.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface
burners, cabinet storage space above the
burners should be avoided.
• Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This
creates a potentially hazardous situation.
• Never use your range for warming or heating
the room. Prolonged use of the range without
adequate ventilation can be dangerous.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
• Reset all controls to the "off" position after
using a programmable timing operation.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
• Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils
before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess
spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the
Owner's Guide.
• Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP
IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove
the cooktop.
DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO
OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN DURING
AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE. RESET ALL OVEN
CONTROLS TO "OFF" IN THE EVENT OF A POWER
FAILURE.
The electric ignitor will automatically re-ignite the oven
burner when power resumes if the oven thermostat
control was left in the "ON" position.
When an electrical power failure occurs during use, the
surface burners will continue to operate.
During a power outage, the surface burners can be lit
with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then
slowly turn the knob to the LITE position. Use extreme
caution when lighting burners this way.
15
Before Starting - Tools You Will Need
For Leveling Legs and Anti-Tip Bracket:
• Adjustable wrench or channel lock pliers
• 5/16" Nutdriver or Flat Head Screw Driver
• Electric Drill & 1/8" Diameter Drill Bit (5/32" Masonry
Drill Bit if installing in concrete)
For gas supply connection:
• Pipe wrench
Important Safety Warning:
To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must
be secured to the floor by a properly installed anti-tip
bracket and screws packed with the range. Failure to
install the anti-tip bracket will allow the range to tip over
if excessive weight is placed on an open door or if a child
climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled
hot liquids or from the range itself.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the antitip brackets must also be moved and installed with the
range.
Instructions are provided for installation in wood or
cement fastened to either the floor or wall. When
installed to the wall, make sure that screws completely
penetrate dry wall and are secured in wood or metal.
When fastening to the floor or wall, be sure that screws
do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.
For burner flame adjustment:
• Phillips head and
blade-type screwdrivers
For gas conversion (LP/Propane or Natural):
• Open end wrench - 1/2"
Additional Materials You Will Need:
• Gas line shut-off valve
• Pipe joint sealant that resists action of LP/Propane
gas
• A new flexible metal appliance conduit (1/2" NPT
x 3/4" or 1/2" I.D.) must be design certified by CSA
International. Because solid pipe restricts moving
the range we recommend using a new flexible
conduit (4 to 5 foot length) for each new installation
and additional reinstallations.
A. Locate the Bracket Using the Template - (Bracket
may be located on either the left or right side of the
range. Use the information below to locate the
bracket if template is not available). Mark the floor
or wall where left or right side of the range will be
located. If rear of range is against the wall or no
further than 1-1/4" from wall when installed, you
may use the wall or floor mount method. If molding
is installed and does not allow the bracket to fit
flush against the wall, remove molding or mount
bracket to the floor. For wall mount, locate the
bracket by placing the back edge of the template
against the rear wall and the side edge of template
on the mark made referencing the side of the
range. Place bracket on top of template and mark
location of the screw holes in wall. If rear of range
is further than 1-1/4" from the wall when installed,
attach bracket to the floor. For floor mount, locate
the bracket by placing back edge of the template
where the rear of the range will be located. Mark
the location of the screw holes, shown in template.
• Always use the (2) new flare union adapters (1/2"
NPT x 3/4" or 1/2" I.D.) supplied with the new
flexible appliance conduit for connection of the
range.
Normal Installation Steps:
1. Anti-Tip Bracket Installation Instructions
B. Drill Pilot Holes and Fasten Bracket - Drill a 1/8"
pilot hole where screws are to be located. If bracket
is to be mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole at an
approximate 20° downward angle. If bracket is to be
mounted to masonry or ceramic floors, drill a 5/32"
pilot hole 1-3/4" deep. The screws provided may be
used in wood or concrete material. Use a 5/16" nutdriver or flat head screwdriver to secure the bracket
in place.

pressure. A convertible pressure regulator is connected
to the manifold and MUST be connected in series with
the gas supply line. If the LP/Propane conversion kit has
been used, follow instructions provided with the kit for
converting the pressure regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14 inches of water
column pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator
must be at least 1 inch greater than regulator manifold
pressure. Examples: If regulator is set for natural gas
4 inch manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be at
least 5 inches; if regulator has been converted for LP/
Propane gas 10 inch manifold pressure, inlet pressure
must be at least 11 inches.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4g.
C. Level and Position Range
Level range by adjusting the (4) leveling legs with a
wrench. Note: A minimum clearance of 1/8" is
required between the bottom of the range and the
leveling leg to allow room for the bracket. Use a spirit
level to check your adjustments. Slide range back
into position. Visually check that rear leveling leg is
inserted into and fully secured by the Anti-Tip
Bracket by removing lower panel or storage drawer.
For models with a warmer drawer or broiler
compartment, grasp the top rear edge of the range
and carefully attempt to tilt it forward.
The gas supply line should be 1/2" or 3/4" I.D.
3. Seal the openings.
Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and in the
floor under the range after gas supply line is installed.
2. Provide an adequate gas supply.
This unit is pre-set to operate on 4" natural gas manifold
17
4. Connect the range to the gas supply.
To prevent leaks, put a pipe joint sealant on all male
(outside) pipe threads. The regulator is in the location
shown below.
Do not allow regulator to turn on
pipe when tightening fittings.
f) Make sure service shut-off valve on pressure
regulator is in "ON" position.
g) Check for leaks. Turn the gas supply on to the
range and use a liquid leak detector at all joints
and conduits to check for leaks in the system.
Do not use a flame to check for gas
leaks.
Checking Manifold Gas Pressure
See page 23.
5. Read electrical connection details below and
connect electricity to range.
Before servicing, disconnect
electrical supply at circuit breaker, fuse or power
cord.
Electric Requirements:
An individual, properly grounded and polarized branch
circuit protected by a 15 amp. circuit breaker or time
delay fuse. See serial plate for proper voltage.
a) Install an external manual gas shut-off valve to
gas supply line in an easily-accessible location
outside of the range. Be sure you know how and
where to shut-off the gas supply to the range.
b) Attach appliance conduit to flare union on
regulator.
c) Attach appliance conduit to the flare union on
the regulator.
d) Install flare union adapter to external manual
shut-off valve.
e) Attach appliance conduit to flare union on shut-
off valve.
Extension Cord Precautions:
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of
any 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.
Such extension cords are obtainable through your local
service organization.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY! For
personal safety, this product must be properly
grounded.
Grounding Instructions:
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
the receptacle is properly grounded and polarized.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Surface Burners:
See Page 21.
6. Installation of Burner Cap Assembly
See Page 22.
9. Electric Ignition Burners:
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
range and supply line connectors have been carefully
checked for leaks and range has been connected to
electric power.
The oven burner is equipped with an electric control
system as well as an electric oven burner igniter. If your
model is equipped with a waist-high broil burner, it will
also have an electric burner igniter. These control systems
require no adjustment. When the oven is set to operate,
current will flow to the igniter. It will "glow" similar to a
light bulb. When the igniter has reached a temperature
sufficient to ignite gas, the electrically controlled oven
valve will open and flame will appear at the oven burner.
There is a time lapse from 30 to 60 seconds after the
thermostat is turned ON before the flame appears at the
oven burner. When the oven reaches the dial setting, the
glowing igniter will go off. The burner flame will go "out"
in 20 to 30 seconds after the igniter goes "OFF." To
maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle will
continue as long as the dial (or display) is set to operate.
7. Electric Ignition Surface Burners
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
range and supply line connectors have been carefully
checked for leaks and range has been connected to
electric power.
a) To check for proper lighting, push in and turn
a surface burner knob counterclockwise to the
LITE position. You will hear the igniter sparking.
b) The surface burner should light when gas is
available to the top burner. Purge air from supply
lines by leaving knob in the LITE position until
burner ignites. Each burner should light within
four (4) seconds in normal operation after air has
been purged from supply lines.
c) Visually check that burner has lit. Once the
burner lights, the control knob should be turned
out of the LITE position.
d) There are separate electrodes (igniters) for each
burner. Try each knob separately until all burner
valves have been checked.
e) If burner goes out, reset control to OFF.
8. Adjust the "LOW" Setting of Surface Burner
Valve (Linear Flow Valves Only):
See Page 23.
Operation of Oven Burners and Oven Adjustments
After removing all packing materials and literature
from the oven:
a) Set oven to BAKE at 300ºF. See Use & Care
Manual for operating instructions.
b) Within 60 seconds the oven burner should
ignite. Check for proper flame, and allow the
burner to cycle once. Reset controls to off.
c) If your model is equipped with a waist-high
broiler, set oven to BROIL. See Use & Care
Manual for operating instructions.
d) Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite.
Check for proper flame. Reset controls to off.

Important Note to the Consumer
Keep these instructions with your Use and Care Guide
for future reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this range must conform with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edition.
This range has been design certified by American
Gas Association (A.G.A.). As with any appliance
using gas and generating heat, there are certain
safety precautions you should follow. You will find
them in the Use and Care Guide, read it carefully.
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• This range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes, or in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA No. 70—latest edition.
• The installation of appliances designed for manu-
factured (mobile) home installation must conform
with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
• Before installing the range in area covered
with linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can
withstand heat at least 90°F above room
temperature without shrinking, warping or
discoloring. Do not install the range over
carpeting unless you place an insulating pad
or sheet of ¼” thick plywood between the
range and carpeting.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the
range can withstand the heat generated by
the range.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the
oven vent nor around the base or beneath the
lower front panel of the range. Avoid touching
the vent openings or nearby surfaces as they
may become hot. This range requires fresh air
for proper burner combustion.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the range to reach
items.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the sur-
face burners, cabinet storage space above the
burners should be avoided.
• Adjust surface burner flame size so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the cooking
utensil. Excessive flame is hazardous.
• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This
creates a potentially hazardous situation.
• All ranges
can tip.
• Injury to
persons
could result.
• Install antitip device
packed with
range.
To reduce the risk of
tipping of the range, the
range must be secured
by properly installed antitip bracket (s) provided
with the range. To check
if the bracket(s) is
installed properly, grasp
the top rear edge of the
range and carefully tilt it
forward to make sure the
range is anchored.
• Never use your range for warming or heating
the room. Prolonged use of the range without
adequate ventilation can be hazardous.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flam-
mable vapors and liquids near this or any
other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
• Remove broiler pan and other utensils and wipe
up excess spillage before self-cleaning the oven
(if equipped).
27
Do not make any attempt to oper-
ate the electric ignition oven during an electrical power failure. Resumption of electric power
when OVEN TEMP and OVEN SET controls are in
any position other than OFF will result in automatic
ignition of the oven or broiler burner.
For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must
be at least 1" water column pressure greater than the
regulator manifold outlet setting. If the regulator is
set for 4" of manifold pressure, the inlet pressure
must be at least 5". If the regulator is set for 10", the
inlet pressure must be at least 11".
In case of a power outage, you can light the surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a
lighted match to the burner, then slowly turn the
knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.
Surface burner in use when electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally.
The oven burner and broil burner on your range
are lighted by electrical ignition. The oven and
broiler cannot be operated in the event of a
power failure.

4" of manifold pressure or on LP gas at 10" of
manifold pressure. It is shipped from the factory
set for natural gas. If it is to be used with LP gas,
adjustments must be made.
A convertible pressure regulator is connected in series with the manifold of the range and must remain
in series with the supply line regardless of whether
natural or LP gas is being used.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator must be no more than 14" of
water column (W.C.) pressure.

recommended use of A.G.A. design certified flexible metal appliance connector. Connect flexible
appliance to flare union.
D.Move range into approximate position and con-
nect flexible appliance connector to gas supply
line with proper flare union adaptor. The adaptor
supplied with the flexible connector must be used.
E. Check for leaks. Turn the gas supply on the
range and use a liquid leak detector at all joints
and connections to check for leaks in the system.

a flame may result in a fire or explosion.
Disconnect this range and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures
greater than 14" of water column pressure (approx.
½” psig).

Do Not Remove the Pressure Regulator
Remove cap-screw and snap out the nylon gas
indicator by pushing it sideways. Turn the nylon
gas indicator for type gas (Natural or LP) and
snap it back in the cap-screw. Put cap-screw
back on gas regulator.
3.Lower main top and apply gas to check for proper flame
size. Flame should be steady with approximately ½”
blue inner cones and no yellow or orange tips.

Proper Air Adjustment
If air shutter is adjusted so that too much air flows
into the burner, the flame will appear unsteady,
possibly not burning all the way around and will be
noisy (like a blow torch).

1. Turn control to LITE until burner ignites.
2. Quickly turn knob down to LOWEST SETTING.

1. Lift cooktop to gain access to the surface
burner spuds.
2. With ½” wrench, turn spud down or clockwise
until snug (approximately 2 ½ turns). This restricts the flow of gas through spud to that allowed only by the hollow LP metering pin. Do
not overtighten.

D. Air Adjustment Shutter
Apply gas to the burner and adjust air shutter on
burner venturi tube to proper flame. For LP gas,
the air shutter is generally left completely open.

The air adjustment for each burner is located at
the open end of the venturi tube and sits on the
hood of the valve. The shutter is held in place by
friction fit.
