fire, or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The range must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association One Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269 CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road Cleveland, OH 44131-5575

• A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this range be provided.

• Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded.

• The wiring diagram is located on the underside of the storage drawer or below the warming drawer in a clear plastic bag.

NOTE: The metal chassis of the range must be grounded in order for the control panel to work. If the metal chassis of the range is not grounded, no keypads will operate. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the metal chassis of the range is grounded.

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.

Install a shut=off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections.

if connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water

column.

Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes

and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 -latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 -latest edition.

IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range must be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Type of Gas

Natural gas:

This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.

• This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See "Gas Conversions" section. The model/serial rating plate located behind the storage drawer on the right-hand side oven door frame has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.

LP gas conversion: Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician. No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas

specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See "Gas

Conversions" section.

Gas Supply Line

• Provide a gas supply line of 3_,,(1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2"(1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.

NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON ®t tape.

1-®TEFLON is a registered trademark of E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company.

Flexible metal appliance connector:

If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4 to 5 ft (122 to 152.4 cm) long, 1/2"(1.3 cm) or 3_,,(1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal appliance connector may be used for connecting range to the gas supply line.

Burner Input Requirements

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).

For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not applicable for Canada).

• A 1/2"(1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator.

• Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the range.

Rigid pipe connection: The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe

fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. The rigid pipe must be level with the range connection. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be

level and in line.

Must include a shutoff valve: The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff

valve. This valve should be located in the same room but external to the range opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It

should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the range.

Gas Supply Pressure Testing

Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on

the model/serial rating plate.

Line pressure testing above 1/2psi gauge (14" WCP)

The range and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of

that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2psi (3.5 kPa). Line pressure testing at 1/2psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower

The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure

testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2psi (3.5 kPa).

The cooktop sides of the slide-in range fit over the cutout edge of your countertop.

Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of

standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the "LITE" position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues as long as the control knob is turned to

"LITE." When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, sparking

occurs and ignites the gas.

Check Operation of Cooktop Burners

Standard Surface Burners Push in and turn each control knob to the "LITE" position. The flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner is

lit, it may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air in the gas line.
