ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Electrical Requirements

120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated

circuit protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit

breaker or time delay fuse.
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

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.

[] ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)

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.

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

Ensure proper ground
and firm connection

before use

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground

terminalto thewallreceptaclecover screw does

not ground the applianceunlessthecover

screw ismetal,and not insulated,and the wall

receptacleisgrounded through the house

wiring.The customer should have the circuit
checked by a qualifiedelectricianto make sure

the receptacleisproperlygrounded.

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.

[] CHECK FOR LEAKS
Turn the gas supply on and use a liquid leak

detector (soap solution) at all joints and
connections to check for leaks. Do not use an

open flame to look for leaks. Be sure all leaks
are stopped before lighting burners.

[] PRESSURE TEST INFORMATION
The maximum allowable supply pressure

for the regulator is 14" W.C. The minimum
supply pressure needed to check the regulator
setting is 7" W.C. for natural gas and 10" W.C.
for LP gas.

-4,WARNING: The range and its

individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of the gas supply system at
test pressures of more than 1/2 psig (pounds
per square inch gauge). The range must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual shut-off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply system
at test pressures equal to or greater than

1/2 psig. NOTE: 1/2 psig = 13.855" w.c.

[] CHECK THE IGNITERS
Operation of the electric igniters should be

checked after the cooktop and supply line
have been carefully checked for leaks and the
cooktop has been connected to the electrical

power.

a. Turn on gas.
b. Push and turn a burner valve to the LITE

position.

• The burner valve should light when gas
is available to the burner.

• Once the burner lights, it should be

turned out of the LITE position.

c. Try each valve separately until all burners

have been checked.

[] BURNER IGNITION

Cooktop Spark Ignition--When you turn

the cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter

makes a series of electric sparks (ticking
sounds) which light the burner. During a
power failure the burners will not light
automatically. In an emergency, a cooktop
burner may be lit with a match by following

the steps below.

WARNING: Lighting gas burners

with a match is dangerous. You should match

light the cooktop burners only in an
emergency.

a. Light a match and hold the flame near the

burner you want to light. Wooden matches

work best.

b. Push in and turn the control knob slowly.

Be sure you are turning the correct knob

for the burner you are lighting.

NOTE: If the burner does not light within
five seconds, turn the knob off and wait
5 minutes before trying again.

[] BURNER FLAMES
Turn each burner on. Flames should be blue
in color with no trace of yellow. The burner
flames should not flutter or blow away from

the burner. The flame should be no less than

1/4" on the lowest setting and no greater than
1-1/2" on highest setting.
