I RTANT SAFETY

• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range,

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 1/ 4" (10,16 cm)thick plywood between the range and carpeting.

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.

INSTRUCTIONS

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--1atest edition.

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 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, See Grounding Instructions.

When shipped from the factory, this unit isdesigned 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. To accessthe regulator, remove the drawer.

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" (.25 kPa)greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting.

The regulator is set for 4"(10,16 cm)water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure; the inlet pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm)water column (1.25 kPa) Natural

gas. For LP/Propane gas, the regulator must beset for

10"(25,4 cm)water column (2.5 kPa)manifold pressure; the inlet pressure must be at least 11"(27,9 cm)water column (2.75 kPa).

The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve (see Figure 11). This valve should be located

in the same room asthe range and should be in a location that allows easeof opening and closing. Do not block

accessto the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.Open the shutoff valve in

the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gasto move through the gas line.

The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the regulator may be connected by rigid piping or by A.G.A./C.G.A.- approved flexible metallic union-connected piping where local codes permit use.

The gas supply piping can be through the side wall of the right cabinet. The right side cabinet is an ideal location for
