30" DUAL FUEL SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(Models with an Electric Oven and a Gas Cooktop)

5. Gas Supply – Installation

When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed to operate on 4" water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure regulator is connected to the range manifold and MUST be connected in series with the gas supply line. To access the regulator, remove the drawer.

For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator should be no more than 14" of water column pressure (3.5 kPa).

The inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least 1" (.25 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 5" water column (1.25 kPa) Natural gas. For LP/Propane gas, the regulator must be set for

10" water column (2.5 kPa) manifold pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 11" water column (2.75 kPa).

The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve (see Figure 9). 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 the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.

The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the regulator may be connected by rigid piping or by A.G.A./ C.G.A.-approved flexible metallic union-connected piping where local codes permit use.

The gas supply piping can be through the side wall of the right cabinet. The right side cabinet is an ideal location for the main shutoff valve.

Do not make the connection too tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion.

Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator in order: 1- manual shutoff valve, 2- flare union adapter, 3- flexible connector, 4- flare union adapter, 5- pressure regulator.

The gas supply line to the shutoff valve should be 1/2" or 3/4" solid pipe.

The user must know the location of the main shutoff valve and have easy access to it.

When using flexible gas conduit on the range, allow sufficient slack to pull the range outside the cutout for cleaning or servicing.

NOTE: Do not allow the flexible conduit to get pinched between the wall and the range. To visually check, remove the drawer.

Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible connectors are used, be certain connectors are not kinked.

Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Check for leaks. After connecting the range to the gas supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks.

Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may result in a fire or explosion.

All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be installed must be sealed.

Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line.

Check alignment of valves after connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe has not been moved.

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 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).

Isolate the range 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 or 14" water column).

6. LP/Propane Gas Conversion

This appliance can be used with Natural gas or LP/ Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas.

If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/Propane gas, use the supplied fixed orifices located in a bag containing the literature marked "FOR LP/PROPANE GAS CONVERSION". Follow the instructions packaged with the orifices.

Failure to make the appropriate conversion can result in personal injury and property damage.

7. Moving the Appliance for Servicing and Cleaning

Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service drawer (warmer drawer on some models) and open the oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit. Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical power and gas to the range.

The regulator must be disconnected before moving the appliance, if the range regulator is connected to rigid piping. If the range is equipped with a warmer drawer, the regulator can be accessed through a lateral side panel. Remove the 2 screws securing the panel, then remove the panel. Disconnect the regulator from the piping. Reassemble in reverse order (see Figure 10).

1.Install an oven rack in the center of the oven.

2.Place a level on the rack. Take 2 readings with the level placed diagonally in one direction and then the other. Level the range, if necessary, by adjusting the 4 leg levelers with a wrench (see Figure15).

3.Taking care to not damage the countertop, slide range into cut-out opening and double check for levelness. If the range is not level, pull unit out and readjust leveling legs, or make sure floor is level.

10. Check Operation

Refer to the Owner's Guide packaged with the range for operating instructions and for care and cleaning of your range.

Do not touch the elements or burners. They may be hot enough to cause burns.

Remove all packaging from the oven before testing.

1.Install Burner Bases and Burner Caps

This range is equipped with sealed burners as shown (see Figure 12).

Burner Cap

Burner Base

Burner Pan

Gas Opening

To check for proper lighting:

A.Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the LITE position. You will hear the igniter sparking.

B.The surface burner should light when gas is available to the top burner. Each burner should light within four (4) seconds in normal operation after air has been purged from supply lines. Visually check that burner has lit.

C.Once the burner lights, the control knob should be rotated out of the LITE position.

There are separate ignition devices for each burner. Try each knob separately until all burner valves have been checked.

4.Adjust the "LOW" Setting of Surface Burner Valves (see Figure 13)

A.Push in and turn each control to LITE until burner ignites.

B.Quickly turn knob to LOWEST POSITION.

C.If burner goes out, readjust valve as follows: Reset control to OFF. Remove the surface burner control knob, insert a thin-bladed screw driver into the hollow valve stem and engage the slotted screw inside. Flame size can be increased or decreased with the turn of the screw. Adjust flame until you can quickly turn knob from LITE to LOWEST POSITION without extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as small as possible without going out.

5. Operation of Oven Elements

The oven is equipped with an electronic oven control. Each of the functions has been factory checked before shipping. However, it is suggested that you verify the operation of the electronic oven controls once more. Refer to the Owner's Guide for operation. Follow the instructions for the Clock, Timer, Bake, Broil, Convection (some models) and Clean functions.

Bake–After setting the oven to 350°F (177°C) for baking, the lower element in the oven should become red.

Broil–When the oven is set to BROIL, the upper element in the oven should become red.

Clean–When the oven is set for a self-cleaning cycle, the upper element should become red during the preheat portion of the cycle. After reaching the self-cleaning temperature, the lower element will become red.

Convection (some models)–When the oven is set to CONV. BAKE/ROAST at 350°F (177°C), both elements cycle on and off alternately and the convection fan will turn. The convection fan will stop turning when the oven door is opened during convection baking or roasting.

Warmer Drawer (some models)–Set the control knob to HI and check to see the drawer is heating.

When All Hookups are Complete

Make sure all controls are left in the OFF position.

Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the range is unobstructed.

Model and Serial Number Location

The serial plate is located on the oven front frame behind the oven door (some models) or behind the drawer (some models).

When ordering parts for or making inquiries about your range, always be sure to include the model and serial numbers and a lot number or letter from the serial plate on your range.

Your serial plate also tells you the rating of the burners, the type of fuel and the pressure the range was adjusted for when it left the factory.

11. Important Safety Warning

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must be secured to the floor by properly installed anti-tip brackets and screws packed with the range. Those parts are located in a plastic bag in the oven. Failure to install the anti-tip brackets 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.

Follow the instructions below to install the anti-tip brackets.

If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-tip brackets must also be moved and installed with the range. To check for proper installation, see step 5.

Tools Required:

5/16" Nutdriver or Flat Head Screwdriver Adjustable Wrench

Electric Drill

3/16" Diameter Drill Bit

3/16" Diameter Masonry Drill Bit (if installing in concrete)

Anti-Tip Brackets Installation Instructions

Brackets attach to the floor at the back of the range to hold both rear leg levelers. When fastening to the floor, be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing. The screws provided will work in either wood or concrete.

Anti-Tip Bracket

1.Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor with the back and side edges positioned exactly where the back and sides of range will be located when installed. (Use the diagram below to locate brackets if template is not available.)

2.Mark on the floor the location of the 4 mounting holes shown on the template. For easier installation, 3/16" (0.5 cm) diameter pilot holes 1/2" (1.3 cm) deep can be drilled into the floor.

3.Remove template and place brackets on floor with turned up flange to the front. Line up holes in brackets with marks on floor and attach with 4 screws provided. Brackets must be secured to solid floor. If attaching to concrete floor, first drill 3/16" (0.5 cm) dia. pilot holes using a masonry drill bit.

4.Level range if necessary, by adjusting 4 leg levelers with wrench (see Figure 15). A minimum clearance of 1/8" (0.8 cm) is required between the bottom of the range and the rear leg levelers to allow room for the anti-tip brackets.

5.Slide range into place making sure rear legs are trapped by ends of brackets. Range may need to be shifted slightly to one side as it is being pushed back to allow rear legs to align with brackets. Grasp the top rear edge of the range and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure range is properly anchored.
