Important notes

●

Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for use with single wall ducting. However, some local building codes or inspectors may require double wall ducting and/or a damper.
Consult local building codes and/or local agencies, before starting, to ensure that hood and duct installation will meet local requirements.

●

Hood blower speeds should be variable to reduce noise and loss of heated or air conditioned household air when maximum ventilation is not required.
Normally, the maximum blower speed is only required when using the grill or the self-cleaning cycle.

●

For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be installed a minimum of 30” (762mm) to a maximum of 36” (914mm) above the range cooking surface.
If the hood contains any combustible materials (eg a wood covering) it must be a minimum of 36” (914mm) above the cooking surface.

●

Due to a high volume of ventilation air, a source of make-up air (outside replacement air) is recommended. This is particularly important for tightly sealed and insulated homes.
A reputable heating and ventilating contractor should be consulted.

12

9REMOVE FROM SKID & PLACE ON DOLLY

●

The ranges have shipping weights varying from 420 to 630lbs less approx. 50lbs after
removal of packing material. It is recommended that the oven door(s), pan supports
and front kick panel be removed to facilitate handling, reducing the weight and to pass
through some doorways:

●

With the door(s) removed, a 29 1/2” wide opening is required. Without removing the door,
a 32” wide opening is required.

●

The range is held to the skid in the front by two bolts, located behind the kickpanel; and
at the back by either two bolts (RDV2 models) located behind the rear metal panel, or
two L-brackets (RGV models) located on the bottom flange of the range back.

●

After removing the bolts and brackets, the range must be lifted and removed from the
skid.

●

Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels should be used to move this unit. The weight
must be supported uniformly across the bottom, as shown.

●

The range should be transported by a dolly close to its final location.

●

The floor under the legs should be protected (wood strips, carpet, paneling, etc.) before
pushing the unit back into its final position.

LP Gas

●

Connection: 1/2” NPT Minimum 5/8” dia. flex line. Supply Pressure: 11” to 14” W.C.

●

A regulator is required at the LP source to provide a maximum pressure of 14” W.C. to the range regulator.

Requirements for hook-up to gas supply

●

The gas supply connections should be made by a qualified technician in accordance with local codes or ordinances. In the absence of a local code, the installation must conform to the latest
edition of National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z.223.1 (Warning: this appliance must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts).

●

A manual shut-off valve (supplied by the installer) must be installed in an accessible location in the gas line external to the appliance for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to
the appliance. (In Massachusetts such shut-off valves should be approved by the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers & Gas Fitters.) The shut-off valve must be located within 6 feet
(1.8 meters) of the appliance it serves.

IMPORTANT!

Fisher & Paykel recommends installing the manual shutoff valve in a location readily accessible by the customer, so that gas to the
appliance can be shut off in an emergency situation. However, the appliance must not be modified in any way to accommodate such placement.

Installer supplied manual
shut-off valve “open” position

●

The gas supply line must not protrude beyond the back of the appliance.

!8GRILL AND GRIDDLE BURNERS (SOME MODELS ONLY)

●

Each valve and air shutter is individually tested and adjusted prior to shipment. Normally adjustment is not required, however,
vibration during transit, gas conversion or variations in the local gas supply may make minor adjustments necessary.

●

Check for the proper burner flame characteristics and adjust air shutters if necessary.
Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting of the flame from the burner.
If any of these conditions exist, check that the air shutter or burner ports are not blocked.
If this condition persists, adjust the air shutter as required.
If the flame is too yellow, indicating insufficient air, open the shutter to increase air inlet.
If the flame is noisy or tends to lift away from
the burner, indicating too much air, close the shutter to reduce air.

!9INFRARED BROIL AND OVEN BAKE BURNERS (RGV2 MODELS ONLY)

●

The oven infrared broiler burner has no air shutter and is not adjustable.

●

It is necessary to operate the oven broiler for 20-30 minutes to eliminate the harsh odor of the insulation binder.
This must be done before using the range for the first time and with proper ventilation.

●

The oven bake burner has an air shutter and is adjustable.

●

Check for the proper burner flame characteristics. Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive
noise or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of these conditions exist, check that the air shutter (oven burner only) or
burner ports are not blocked. If this condition persists, adjust the air shutter as required. If the flame is too yellow, indicating
insufficient air, open the shutter to increase air inlet. If the flame is noisy or tends to lift away from the burner, indicating too
much air, close the shutter to reduce air.

●

After approximately 5-8 minutes of operation the burner screen should be glowing red.
