GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

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 on the
oven frame behind the top right-hand side of the oven door 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 if ¾" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range
location. A smaller pipe on longer runs may result in insuffient
gas supply. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be ½" (1.3 cm)
minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers deteremine 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®† tape.

• If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4 to 5 ft (122 to

152.4 cm) long, ½" (1.3 cm) or ¾" (1.9 cm) I.D. (inside diameter),
flexible metal appliance connector may be used for connecting range
to the gas supply 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.

†®TEFLON is a registered trademark of E.I. Du Pont Nemours and Company.

IMPORTANT: Range must be level after installation. Follow
the instructions in the “Level Range” section. Using the cooktop
as a reference for leveling the range is not recommended.

* Range can be raised approximately 1" (2.5 cm) by adjusting

the leveling legs.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to
the cabinet. Use a 3-wire UL listed, 40- or 50-amp power supply cord
(pigtail). See the following Range Rating chart. If local codes do not
permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord
rated at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

* The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load listed

on the model/serial/rating plate.

** If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with kit.

For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal
