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

Do not store items of interest to children in the

cabinets above the range. Childrencouldbe seriously

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

During a power outage, the surface burners can be litwith a match. Hold a lighted match tothe burner, then slowly turn

the knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.

Before Starting

Tools You Will Need

For leveling legs and Anti-Tip Bracket:

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)

For gas supply connection:

• Pipe wrench

For burner flame adjustment:

Phillipshead _ and blade-typescrewdrivers

For gas conversion (LP/Propane or Natural):

• Open end wrench- 1/2"

Additional Materials You Will Need

Gas line shut-oft valve

Pipe joint sealant that resists action of LP/Propane gas

A new flexible metal appliance conduit (1/2" NPT x 3/4" or 1/2"I.D.) must be designcertified by CSA International.

Because solid pipe restricts moving the range we recommend using a new flexible conduit (4 to 5 foot length) for each new installation and additional

reinstallations.

Locate the Bracket Using the Template- (Bracket may be locatedoneithertheleft orrightsideofthe range. Use

theinformationbelow to locatethe bracketiftemplate is not available). Mark the flooror wall where left or right

sideofthe rangewillbelocated, Ifrearofrangeisagainst thewallornofurtherthan 1-1/4"fromwallwhen installed,

you may use thewall orfloor mount method, If molding

is installed and does not allow the bracket to fit flush against the wall,remove molding ormountbrackettothe floor.For wall mount, locate the bracket by p!acing the

back edge of the template againstthe rearwall and the side edge of template on the mark made referencing the

side of the range. Place bracket on top of template and mark location of the screw holes inwall. If rear of range isfurther than 1-1/4" from the wall when installed, attach bracket to the floor. For floor mount, locate the bracket

by placing back edge of the template where the rear of

the range will be located. Mark the location ofthe screw

holes, shown in template.

Drill Pilot Holes and Fasten Bracket - Drill a 1/8" pilot holewhere screws are to be located. Ifbracket isto be

mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole atan approximate 20° downward angle. If bracket isto be mounted to masonry

or ceramic floors, drill a 5/32" pilot hole 1-3/4" deep. The

screws provided may be used in wood or concrete

material. Use a 5/16" nut-driver or flat head screwdriver

to secure the bracket in place.

• Always use the (2) new flare union adapters (1/2" NPT x

3/4" or 1/2" I.D.) supplied with the new flexible appliance conduit for connection of the range.

Normal Installation Steps

1. Anti-Tip Bracket Installation Instructions Important Safety Warning
