WARNING!
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
Have your range installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer, in accordance with the Installation Instructions. Any adjustment and service should be performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other service should be referred to a qualified technician.
Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded
outlet only. Do not remove the round grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical system, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have an ungrounded outlet replaced with a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.

WARNING!
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.
Always use the LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers causesmoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
Use only dry pot holders— moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.
When using glass cookware, make sure
it is designed for top-of-range cooking.
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying, stir together before heating or as fats melt slowly.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you
do flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed overthe burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are at the OFF position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them.
If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and create a fire hazard.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak.
Always turn the surface burner controls off
before removing cookware.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can
lead to damage and improper operation of the range.
When disabling Gas/Control Lockout, make
sure the surface controls are set to the OFF position. This will preclude gas flow when the range is turned on

the interior surface of the drawer. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the drawer may be hot when the drawer is opened.
Use care when opening the drawer. Open the
drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower
oven drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior finish.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
Installation
Instructions
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
SELF-CLEANING THE UPPER OVEN
Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove any
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, probe and any aluminum foil.
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
Troubleshooting TipsConsumer Support
The gray porcelain-coated oven racks may be
cleaned in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,
turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

UPPER OVEN
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Place the oven racks in the desired position
while the oven is cool.
Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest position is not designed to slide.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
WARNING: NEVER cover any
slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual. Misuse could result in a fire hazard or damage to the range.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
Always remove any broiler pan from range as
soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the pan can catch fire if oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent excessive flare-ups.
Make sure any broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
If you should have a grease fire in a broiler
pan, press the CLEAR/OFF pad, and keep the oven door closed to contain fire until it burns out.
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door closed.
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.

Sealed Gas Burners
Your gas range cooktop has five sealed gas burners. They offer convenience, cleanability and flexibility to be used in a wide rangeof cooking applications.
The smallest burner in the right rear position is the simmer burner. This burner can be turned down to LO for a very low simmer setting. It provides precise cooking performance for delicate foods such as sauces or foods that require low heat for a long cooking time.
The medium (left rear) and the extra large (left front) burners are the primary burners for most cooking. These general-purpose burners can be turned down from HI to LO to suit a wide range of cooking needs. The extra large (left front) burner also has a special POWER
BOIL™setting designed to be used with
cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter.
How to Select Flame Size
The dual flame extra large burner (right front) is the maximum output burner. Like theother four burners, it can be turned down from HI to LO for a wide range of cooking applications; however, this burner is designed to quickly bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It has a special POWER BOIL™setting designed to be used with cookware 10 inches or larger in diameter.
Extra large and dual flame extra large burners only.
The center oval burner is the largest in size and is for large oval pots/pans, round pots/pans 10" or greater in diameter or with the griddle.
For safe handling of cookware, never let the flames extend up the sides of the cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you reduce heat. When fast heating is desired, the flame

size on a gas burner should match the cookware you are using.
Flames larger than the bottom of the cookware will not result in faster heating of the cookware and could be hazardous.
Top-of-Range Cookware
Safety Instructions
GEAppliances.com
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-
itting lids when cooking with minimum
f amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the enamel of some cookware may melt. Follow cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooking methods.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed gas burners. If you use the stove top grill on the sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Glass: There are two types of glass cookware—those for oven use only and those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans, coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat very
lowly.
s
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for either surface or oven cooking. It conducts heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer’s directions to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the manufacturer recommends.
Operating Instructions
Instructions
Installation
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
Wok This Way
We recommend that you use a 14-inch or smaller flat-bottomed wok. Make sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate. They are available at your local retail store.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
In Case of Power Failure
In case of a power failure, you can light the gas surface burners on your range with a match. Hold a lit match to the burner, then push in and turn the control knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way.
Do not use a wok support ring. Placing the ring over the burner or grate may cause the burner to work improperly, resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This could be dangerous to your health.
Surface burners in use when an electrical power failure occurs will continue to operate normally.
NOTE: If Gas/Control Lockout is in use at the time of a power failure, the surface burners cannot be lit.

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary when convection baking and for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
Baking results will be better if foods are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven.
For best results when baking four cake layers at a time, use racks B and D. Place the lower pans at the back of the rack and the upper pans at the front of the rack as shown so that one pan is not directly above another leaving approximately 1-1/2" between pans, from the front, back and sides of the walls.
To change the oven temperature during BAKE
ycle, press the BAKE pad and then the
c number pads to get the new temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum
ime on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.

Troubleshooting Tips
When baking four cake layers at a time, use racks B and D. Place the lower pans at the back of the rack and the upper pans to the front of the rack shown so that one pan is not directly above another.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven.
Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack several inches below the food.

Using the convection oven. GEAppliances.com
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking.
Safety Instructions
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time than with regular heat.
NOTE: To maximize cooking evenness, the fan is designed to rotate in both directions with a pause in between. This is normal.
To help you understand the difference
etween convection bake and roast and
b traditional bake and roast, here are some general guidelines.
Convection Bake
Preheat the oven. See the Using the Oven–
Preheating and Pan Placement section.
Ideal for foods cooked on multiple racks.
Good for large quantities of baked foods.
Good results with cookies, biscuits,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food.
Convection Roast
Good for large tender cuts of meat,
uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on rack position (A).
When you are convection roasting, it is important that you use a broiler pan and grid
or best convection roasting results. The pan
f is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters.
Place the rack in rack position (A).

How to Set the Upper Oven for Convection Baking or Roasting
Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/ 1 RACK pad once for multi-rack
convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on more than one rack (i.e., 2, 3 or more racks) at the same time in convection bake. See the Multi- Rack Baking section for more information. Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/1 RACK pad twice for one rack convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on only one rack in convection bake.
Touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad for convection roasting.
Touch the number pads to set the desired oven temperature.
Touch the START pad.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.
To change the oven temperature, touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/1 RACK or CONVECTION ROAST pad and then the number pads to set the new temperature.
When the oven starts to heat, the changing temperature, starting at 100°F, will be displayed. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, 3 beeps will sound.
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when finished.
NOTE: You will hear a fan while cooking with convection. The fan will stop when the door is opened but the heat will not turn off.
The fan will not start until the preheat temperature is reached.
NOTE: When convection baking, the oven temperature will be 25˚F (14˚C) lower than the set temperature. See Auto Recipe™ Conversion in the Special Features section for more information. When convection roasting, oven temperature will not auto convert.
Troubleshooting TipsConsumer Support
When convection baking with only 1 rack, follow the rack positions recommended in the Using the Oven section.

Multi-Rack Baking
The number of racks provided depends on your model.
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results using multiple racks.
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times slightly for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits and other quick breads give very good results with multi-rack baking.
To cook food on more than one rack in convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE
MULTI.
When baking larger foods on 3 racks, place one rack in the 2nd (A) position, one on the 4th (C) position and the third rack in the 6th (E) position.
When baking cookies, place the racks in the 3rd (B), 4th (C) and 6th (E) positions.
For best results when roasting large turkeys and roasts, we recommend using the probe included in the convection oven.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Burner Grates

Your range has three professional-style double grates. These gratesare position-specific. For maximum stability,these grates should only be used in their proper positions.For convenience, the undersides of the side grates are marked “OUTSIDE.” Makesure the front portionof both grates is in front. The center grate can be interchanged front to back.
Cleaning Grates—Soap and Water
Lift grates out when cool. Grates should be washed regularly and, of course, after spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water. When replacing the grates, be sure they are positioned securely over the burners. Replace the grates so that straight lines are formed with the center ribs of all three grates.
Cleaning Grates—Self-Clean Oven
To get rid of burned-on food, you may use the self-clean cycle of your range. Remove any burnt-on food particles that you can prior to placing the grates in the oven. Place the gray porcelain-coated racks in positions “R”, “B” and “D”.
NOTE: Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven.
Place one grate each on the oven racks from side to side. Follow the instructions for how to set the upper oven for cleaning.
NOTE: Use caution when removing the grates from the oven after the self-clean cycle has ended. The grates may still be hot.
For heavily-soiled grates, you may notice some white ash on the grate. Wipe it off with a damp cloth after the grate cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled scouring pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.
These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
Cleaning Grates—Dishwasher
The grates may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any burnt-on food particles that you can prior to placing the grates in the dishwasher. Place them on the lowest rack of the dishwasher and run on a “heavy duty” cycle.
Do not operate a burner for an extended period of time without cookware on the grate. The finish on the grate may chip without cookware to absorb the heat.
Although the grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine, regardless of the best care you can give them. This is due to their continual exposure to high temperatures and abrasion by the cookware.

Lift the door straight up and off the hinges.
The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket— it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.
Lift-Off Oven Door
he oven door is removable, but it is heavy.
T You may need help removing and replacing the door.
To remove the door, open it a few inches to the special stop position that will hold the
oor open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift
d the door straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same time. If the hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.
To clean the inside of the door:
Do not allow excess water to run into
any holes or slots in the door.
Because the area inside the gasket is
cleaned during the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional stains when the oven is heated.
GEAppliances.com
The area outside the gasket can be
cleaned with a soap-filled plastic scouring pad.
To clean the outside of the door:
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean
the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.
Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing
powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the rack below the rack you are cooking on. This is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel surface and should be wiped up immediately.
Oven Racks and Drawer Racks
The gray porcelain-coated racks may be cleaned in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
We don’t recommend using aluminum foil on the oven bottom. It can affect air flowif the holes are blocked and it can concentrate heat at the bottom of the oven, resulting in poor baking performance.
To clean up spillovers, use soap and water, an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse well to remove any soap before self­cleaning.
They may also be cleaned by using an abrasive cleanser. After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean water and dry with a clean cloth. If the racks ever become hard to slide, wipe the rack edges or oven rack supports with vegetable oil.

WARNING!

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind
he range should be sealed. Make sure the openings
t around the base of the range that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving the range on this type of flooring. It is recommended that the following simple and inexpensive instructions be followed to protect your floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood (or similar material). When the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering will withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) by the range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)
For free standing or slide in ranges, never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost (In Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions of the bracket, visit: GEAppliances.com (In Canada, GEAppliances.ca)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly seated and level.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven and/or drawer.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose during shipping.

Installation Instructions
1
PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 5" of water column on natural gas or, if designed for LP gas (propane or butane), 10 " of water column.
Make sure you are supplying your range with the type of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convertible for use on natural or propane gas. If you decide to use this range on LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to operate the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be between 5" and 13" of water column.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 10" and 13" of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than the operating (manifold) pressure as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 1/2" and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. In Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors no longer than 6 feet in length.
2
CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the
ew hook-up has been completed. Don’t forget to
n relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.
Never use an old connector when installing a new range. If the hard piping method is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male (external) pipe threads.
A. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line
in an easily accessed location outside of the range. Make sure everyone operating the range knows where and how to shut off the gas supply to the range.
B. Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT
internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.
When installing the range from the front, remove the 90° elbow for easier installation.
C. Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the NPT
internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
D. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the
adapter on the range. Position range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
E. When all connections have been made, make sure
all range controls are in the off position and turn on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
WARNING: DO NOT USE
A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test the gas supply system of the residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual shut-off valve.

Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safety hazards associated with certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an 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 circuit rating.
Grounding
IMPORTANT—(Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
Preferred Method
3
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
A. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will
be Disconnected Infrequently.
An adapter may be used only on a 15-amp circuit. Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, available at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.
Temporary Method
(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)
Align large prongs/slots
Ensure proper ground and firm connection before use
Ensure proper ground exists before use
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI’s – GFCI’s are not required or recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI’s) are devices that sense leakage of current in a circuit and automatically switch off power when a threshold leakage level is detected. These devices must be manually reset by the consumer. The National Electrical Code requires the use of GFCI’s in kitchen receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces. Performance of the range will not be affected if operated on a GFCI-protected circuit but occasional nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter
ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring. The customer should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.
46

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
B. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will
be Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter
round terminal. The customer should have the two-
g prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.
The installation of appliances designed for mobile home installation must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or, when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, latest edition (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with local codes.
