IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety symbols and instructions. Please pay attention to these symbols and follow all instructions given.

This symbol will help alert you to situations that may cause serious bodily harm, death or property damage.

This symbol will help alert you to situations that may cause bodily injury or property damage.

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 or CAN/ ACGB149.1 and CAN/ACG - B149.2.

ThisrangehasbeendesigncertifiedbyCSAInternational.

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 in United States or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 in Canada. See Grounding Instructions.

Air curtain or other overhead hoods, which operate by blowing a downward air flow on to a range, shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other than when the hood and range have been designed, tested and listen by an independent test laboratory for use in combination with each other.

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 ¼" (0,64 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.

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

2

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.

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.

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:

Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the Use and Care Guide.

Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove the cooktop.

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip device has been

installed to floor or wall as per installation instructions.

Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged to floor or wall when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip device in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

To check if the anti-tip bracket is installed properly, use both arms and grasp

the rear edge of range back. Carefully attempt to tilt range forward. When properly installed, the range should not tilt forward.

30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(Models with Sealed Top Burners)

Before Starting

Tools you will need

For leveling legs and anti-tip brackets:

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)

Level & Measuring Tape

For gas supply connection:

Pipe Wrench Brush

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

(½" NPT x ¾" or ½" I.D.) must be design certified by CSA International. Because solid pipe restricts moving the range we recommend using a new flexible conduit

(4 feet length) for each new installation and additional reinstallations.

Always use the (2) new flare union

adapters ½" NPT x ¾" or ½" I.D.) supplied with the new flexible appliance conduit for connection of the range.

1. Cabinet Construction

1.1 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.

1.2Countertop Preparation (figure 1)

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).

Figure 1

If the existing cutout width is greater than 30-1/16" (76,4 cm), reduce the ¾" (1,9 cm) dimension.

Countertop must be level. Place a level on the countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If the countertop is not level, the range will not be level. The oven must be level for satisfactory baking results. Cooktop sides of range fit over edges of countertop opening.

1.3Gas and Electric Entry Preparation

The hatched areas are the locations where the gas line can enter the cabinet (figure 2).

The recommended position for the gas entry line is located at 7" (17,8 cm) from the left cabinet wall and

2" (5,1 cm) from the floor (figure 2).

The shaded area is the location where the electric outlet can be located (figure 2).

Figure 3

2. 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 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" (35,56 cm) of water column pressure (3,5 kPa). The inlet

pressure to the regulator must be at least 1" (0,25 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" (12,7 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 ½" or ¾" I.D. (Interior

Diameter)

4. Connect the range to the gas supply

Important: Remove all packing material and literature from range before connecting gas and electrical

supply.

To prevent leaks, put pipe joint sealant on all external pipe threads.

Your regulator is in location as shown in figure 3.

Do not allow regulator to rotate on pipe when tightening fittings.

Connection to Pressure Regulator

The regulator is already installed on the appliance.

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.

Once regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.

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 (or soap and water) 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.

Tighten all connections as necessary to prevent gas leakage in the range or supply line.

Disconnect this range and its individual manual 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).

5. 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 for surface, oven and broil burners conversion.

The conversion must be performed by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all local codes and requirements. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage.

The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.

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

30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(Models with Sealed Top Burners)

To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop without all burner caps properly installed to insure proper ignition and gas flame size.

Always keep the burner caps and burner heads in place whenever the surface burners are in use. DO not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas orifice holder openings.

Check and be sure the size of each burner cap matches the size of the burner head. Check and be sure that all round style burner caps are correctly in place on round burner heads.

Check and be sure that all oval style burner caps are correctly in place on oval burner heads (if equipped). Check and be sure that all dual or twin style burner caps are correctly in place on dual or twin heads (if equipped).

On round style burners, the burner cap lip (Figure 10) should fit snug into the center of burner head and be level. Refer to figures 11 & 12 for correct and incorrect burner cap placement.

Once in place, you may check the fit by gently sliding the burner cap from side to side (Figure 13) to be sure it is centered and firmly seated. When the burner cap lip makes contact inside the center of the burner head you will be able to hear the burner cap click. Please note that the burner cap should NOT move off the center of the burner head when sliding from side to side.

11.5 Operation of Oven Burners and Oven

Adjustments

11.5.1 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 igniter, 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 thermostat is turned ON before the flame appears at the oven burner.

When the oven reaches the display setting, the glowing igniter will go off. The burner flame will go "out" in 20 to 30 seconds after igniter goes "OFF". To maintain any given oven temperature, this cycle will continue as long as the display is set to operate.

After removing all packing materials and literature from the oven:

a)Set the oven to BAKE at 300°F. See Use & Care Guide 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 high-waist broiler, set oven to broil. See Use & Care Guide for operating instructions.

d)Within 60 seconds the broil burner should ignite.

Check for proper flame. Reset controls to off.

The approximate oven burner flame length is 1 inch (distinct inner cone of blue flame).

To determine if the oven burner flame is proper, remove the oven bottom and burner baffle and set the oven to bake at 300°F.

To remove the oven bottom, remove oven hold down screws at rear of oven bottom. Pull up at rear, disengage front of oven bottom from oven front frame, and pull the

oven bottom out of the oven. Remove burner baffle so that burner flame can be observed.

If the flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2" in Figure 17). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.

To adjust frame loosen lock screw (see "3" in Figure 17), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven bottom.

11.5.3 Air Shutter-Broil Burner

The approximate flame length of the burner is 1 inch (distinct inner cone of blue flame). To determine if the broil burner flame is proper, set the oven to broil. If flame is yellow, increase air shutter opening size (see "2" in Figure 17). If the entire flame is blue, reduce the air shutter opening size. To adjust, loosen lock screw (see

"3" in Figure 17), reposition air shutter, and tighten lock

screw.

12. Anti-Tip Brackets Installation

Instructions

12.1 Models Equipped with Leveling Device

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must be secured to the floor by properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range. These parts are located in the oven. 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.

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

If range is ever moved to a different location, the antitip brackets must also be moved and installed with the range.

Tools Required:

Adjustable Wrench Ratchet

Drill & 1/8" (0,32 cm) bit 5/16" (0,8 cm) Nutdriver Level

The anti-tip bracket attaches to the floor at the back of the range to prevent range from tipping. When fastening bracket 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.Draw a center line (CL) on the floor where the range should be installed. Also draw a line on the floor at the range back position if there is no wall.

2.Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor with the right rear corner positioned exactly on the intersection of the center and back lines you just drew before. (Use the diagram below to locate brackets if template is not available (Figure 18)).

3.Mark on the floor the location of the 4 mounting holes shown on the template. For easier installation, 3/16" (0,48 cm) diameter pilot holes 1/2" (1,27 cm) deep can be drilled into the floor.

4.Remove template and place bracket on floor. Line up holes in bracket with marks on floor and attach with

4 screws provided. Bracket must be secured to solid floor (Figure 19). If attaching to concrete floor, first drill 3/16" (0,48 cm) dia. pilot holes using masonry drill bit.

5.Be sure the 4 leveling legs are at the highest position they can be.

6.Slide range into place making sure structure of the range is trapped by the anti-tip bracket (Figure 19). Lower the range by adjusting the 4 leveling legs until the underside of the cooktop is sitting level on the countertop. Refer to "Leveling the Range" section.

7.After installation, verify that the anti-tip bracket is engaged by grasping the top rear edge of the range and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure range is properly anchored.
