the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1--1atest 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 fellow. You will find
them inthe Use & Care Manual. read it carefully.
Besure your range isinstalled 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 theNational Electrical CodeANSI/NFPA No .70_
latest edition when installed in the United States. See Grounding Instructionson page 5.
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 9O°F above room temperature without shrinking,
warping or discoloring. Do not installthe range over carpetingunless youplace an insulatingpador sheetof 1/4-inchthickplywoodbetween therangeandcarpeting.
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, Aschildrengrow,
teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances. Never
leave the oven dooropen when the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors
or drawers of this range canresult inserious injuries and can also cause damage to the range.
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Childrencouldbe seriously
burnedclimbingonthe 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 ishazardous. Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates
a potentially hazardoussituation.
Never use your range for warming or beating the room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.

2. Provide an adequate gas supply. This unit is pre-set to operate on 4" natural gas manifold
pressure. A convertible pressure regulator isconnected 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 mustbe taken during installationof rangenottoobstruct 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 inchgreater 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.
Leaktesting of the appliance shall be conducted according to
the instructions in step 4g.
The gas supply line should be 1/2" or 3/4" I.D.

g) Check for leaks. Turn the gas supply on tothe 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 Disconnect the range and its individual shut-off valve from
the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures greater than 14" of water
column pressure (approximately 1/2" psig).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 14" ofwater colu mnpressure (approximately 1/2" psig).
If itshould be necessary tocheck the manifold gas pressure, connect manometer (water gauge) or other pressure device
to the top burner right rear orifice. Using a rubber hose with
inside diameter of approximately 1/4,"hold tubing down tight over orifice. Turn burner valve on.
For an accurate pressure check have at least two (2) other
top burners burning. Be sure the gas supply (inlet) pressure
isat least one inch above specified range manifold pressure.
The gas supply pressure should never be over 14" water
column. When properly adjusted for Natural Gas the manifold pressure is 4." (For LP/Propane Gas the manifold pressure
is 10.")
Electric Requirements: An individual, properly grounded and
polarized branch circuit protected bya 15amp.circuit breaker or time delay fuse. See serial plate for proper voltage.
ExtensionCord Precautions:
Because of potential safety hazards undercertain 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.

Operation of Oven Burners and Oven Adjustments
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 willflow 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) isset to operate.
The approximate flame lengthof the oven burner is 1 inch (distinct inner, blue flame).
To determine if the oven burner flame isproper, 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
atrear of oven bottom. Pull upat rear,disengage front of oven bottom from oven front frame, and pull the oven bottom out
of the oven. Remove burner baffle so that the burner flame can be observed.
If the flame is yellow in color, increase air shutter opening
size. (See "2" in illustration below.) If the flame is a distinct
blue, reduce the air shutter opening size.
To adjust loosen lock screw (see "3" illustration below),
reposition air shutter, and tighten lock screw. Replace oven
bottom.
