IMPORTANT SAFETY
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4" (10,16 cm) 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.
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.
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/NFPA .54-latest edition. 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 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. See Grounding Instructions. 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
All ranges can tip.
Injury to persons
could result.
Install anti-
tip device
packed with range.
To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the
range must be secured by properly installed anti-tip bracket provided with the range. To
check if the bracket is installed properly, grasp
the top rear edge of the range and carefully tilt
it forward to make sure the range is anchored.
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.
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 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.
Excessiveflame 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.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head and slowly turn
the Surface Control knob to LITE.Use caution when lighting surface burners manually. Reset all controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:

Cabinet Construction
To eliminate the risk of cabinet burns and fire, do not have cabinet storage space above the range. If there is cabinet storage space above range, reduce risk by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the
bottom of the cabinet.
Countertop Preparation
The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout
edge of your countertop.
If you have a square finish (flat) countertop, no
countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay directly on edge of countertop.
Formed front-edged countertops must have molded
edge shaved flat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from each front corner of opening (Figure 1).
Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9
cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened (Figure 1).

Provide an adequate Gas Supply
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed to operate on 4"(10,16 cm) 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. If LID/ 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.
Forproper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56 cm) 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. Examples: If regulator is set for natural gas 4" (10,16 cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm); if regulator has been converted for LP/Propane gas
10"(25,4 cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be
at least 11 "(27,9 cm). Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4. The gas supply line should be 1/2"or 3A" I.D. (Interior
Diameter) The gas supply piping can be through the back wall
(Figure 2, zone 1) or through the floor (Figure 2, zone 2):
Zonel-Throu h the Back Wall 7"X6" -Thebest place to have your gas line in is between 1" (2.5 cm) and
8" (20.3cm) from the floor and within 3" (7.6 cm) from the center line.
Zone 2 - Through the Floor (~2" X 24") - The gas line can also come through the floor within 12" (30.5 cm) from the center line against the back wall. In case, you can remove the "L" shape piece of metal at the bottom metal portion at the back of the unit. There is absolutely no problem removing this "L" shape piece of metal, it is there to protect the gas line especially during transport.

Anti-Tip Brackets Installation
instructions
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. These 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" (0,79 cm) Nutdriver or Flat Head Screwdriver
Adjustable Wrench Electric Drill
3/16"(0,5 cm) Diameter Drill Bit 3/16"(0,5 cm) Diameter Masonry Drill Bit (if installing in
concrete)
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.
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. (Figure 12))
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 (Figure 13). 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 slide under brackets. You may also grasp the top rear edge of the range and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure range is properly anchored.
