USA & CANADA
Instal ler: Leave these instructions with the appliance
WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat
or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven
WARNING: NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as alumi-
num foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven and may cause
carbon monoxide poisoning. Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit
drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as suggested in the manual. Improper
instal lation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
Always read and obey all safety messages.
u

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
In Case of Fire
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan.
Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a cooktop burner by covering the pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking
tray. If available use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
If fire is in an oven pan, smother by closing oven door. Open doors and
windows or if a hood is fitted turn it on to remove smoke and odor.
To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
Before using the range make sure all the packing materials have been
removed. Always keep the area around the range free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
If the range is instal led near a window, proper precautions should be
taken to prevent curtains from blowing over the burners.
NEVER leave any items on the range cooktop. The hot air from an
USA & CANADA
oven vent may ignite flammable items and may increase pressure in
closed containers, which may cause them to burst. Many aerosol-type
spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly
flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics wil l burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep plastic
items away from parts of the range that may become warm or hot. Do
not leave plastic items on the cooktop as they may burn, melt or soften
if left too close to a vent or a lighted burner.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Al l our cooking appliances are intended for domestic use only; i.e., not professional. In the event of non-domestic use, the manufacturer shal l not incur any
liability, and the warranty shall be considered void.

th to damage.
u Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, cera-
mic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top servi-
ce without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
u Utensil Hand les Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent
Surface Units - To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable mate-
rials, and spil lage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the hand le
of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface units.
u DEEP FAT FRYERS: Use extreme caution when moving the grease kettle
or disposing of hot grease.
u Do Not Soak Removable Heating Elements - Heating elements should
never be immersed in water.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Exposure to these substances can also be minimized by properly venting
with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
USA & CANADA
To reduce the risk from substances in the fuel or from fuel combustion
make sure this appliance is installed, operated, and maintained according
to the instructions in this booklet.
u Quality of Flames - On Natural Gas the burners’ flames should be a blueish
color with, at most, a slight yellowish fringe. On Propane gas the flames
may be ”softer”. The cooktop burner flames may have a slight yel lowish
tip.
If the flame burns with a long white tip you should cal l for service.
MAKE SURE THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
TO THE RANGE IS UNOBSTRUCTED.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR UNITS, HEATING
ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Surface units and
heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near
surface units and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to
cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact surface units, areas near units, heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surface of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns - among these
surfaces are oven vent openings and surface near these openings, oven
doors, etc.
IMPORTANT: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the
fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory
system. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and
overheated non-stick cookware may be harmful.

1. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1.1. Ventilation
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it
is installed. It is essential that the kitchen where the ”La Cornue” stove wil l be installed has excellent ventilation to the outside, for vapor and combustion gases, and a fresh air inlet.
Do not use air recycling systems.
Ventilation exhaust devices can be vapor aspirators or hoods.
USA & CANADA
1.2. Clearances to combustible construction
The minimum horizontal distance from
sides of appliance to the adjacent vertical
combustible walls extending 18” (457
mm) above the top panel is 12” (305
mm).
The maximum depth of overhead cabinets
is 13” (330 mm).
The minimum horizontal distances
between overhead cabinets is not less then
the nominal width of the appliance (A).
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire
by reaching over heated surface units,
cabinet storage space located above
the surface units should be avoided.
Any element, either an extraction hood or
cabinet, situated directly above the range
must be made of non-combustible material
and placed at no less than 30” (760 mm)
above range.
The recommanded height is 36” (914
mm) above range.
1/2” recommended 1/2” recommended
Clearances to combustible construction
May be installed with zero clearance between adjacent combustible construction below the cooking surface and the back
and sides of the appliance.
We recommend to leave 1/2” gap on each side in order to allow enaugh space for moving the range.
To be used in conjonction with a suitable ventilation hood.

cable.
Power: Check the power rating at your electric meter (maximal load) to ensure that it is suitable
for your model, taking into account all other electrical appliances instal led on the same
circuit.
The tables in pages 14, 17, 20, 24, 28 and 32 show the necessary power and amp ratings for
each La Cornue model.
The power of the ”La Cornue” stoves, does not allow for a simple plug and socket connection;
the electrical connection must be made by means of an adequate flexible cord, built-in junction
box, with terminal blocks; the box is located about 12” (300 mm) from the floor, on the wall
behind the stove, on the right.
3. GAS SUPPLY
Use sealing compound on all pipe joints. Compound used must be resistant to the action of LP Gases.
The gas supply line to the appliance must be at least the same size as the gas inlet. An easily accessible
manual shutoff valve must be installed, keeping in mind the fact that on the appliance, the gas inlet is
located:
1/2
- On the left-hand side of the appliance, approximately 2
- 24” (620 mm) above the floor (for the ranges).
NOTE:
Make sure that the supply line is clear of burrs and metal particles in order to avoid damage to the
gas controls once the gas is turned on. The pipe connections can then be made
When your ”La Cornue” appliance is installed between kitchen cabinets, the manual shutoff valve should
be accessible. We recommend it be located at the rear of an adjacent cabinet.
According to gas regulations, any opening in the wall or on the floor for gas supply of the appliance must
be properly sealed as well as any circulation of air between the gas supply room and the kitchen.
When all the work has been carried out on your gas supply network, ensure that no metallic burr can
enter the supply tube of the stove and block the burners. Then make sure that al l gas connections are properly sealed. Refer to page 43 for initial test of the unit prior to turning the gas on. Refer to ”Important
Safety Information” section, on pages 1 - 8.
” (60 mm) from the edge.
4. INSTALLATION
In order to ensure that the range is perfectly horizontal, especially in a kitchen with old paving or flooring, we recommend that you install the stove on a wooden or cement base, the height of which will bring
the hot top to a level in accordance with its environment or your requirements.
We recommend a base of the exact size of the stove base.

3. GAS CONNECTION
The instal lation of your La Cornue appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, in the USA with the ”National Fuel Gas Code”, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition, and, in Canada,
with CAN/CGA - B149.1, and CAN CGA - B149.2, ”Instal lation Code for Gas Burning Appliances”.
In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts
This product must be instal led by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when instal led within the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
A ”T” hand le type manual gas valve must be instal led in the gas supply line to this appliance.
All La Cornue ranges and cooktops are fully assembled and equipped for use with the type of gas shown
on the rating plate of the appliance.
If no special instructions were mentioned upon ordering, the stove is fitted with orifices for natural gas.
Prior to instal lation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas
pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
The range is designed to operate at a manifold pressure of 5” of Water Column (1,24 kPa = 12,4 mbar) on
natural gas, or a manifold pressure of 11” of Water Column (2,74 kPa = 27,4 mbar) on LP gas (Propane).
LA CORNUE
Installation Guide Centenaire
08NOTINSTAL100/USA-8
Page 41
Page 44
Gas connection INSTALLATION
If the range is to be used on LP gas, a qualified LP installer must convert it. We recommend that the range
be converted before instal lation.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be between 6” and
10” of water column (1,49 and 2,49 kPa).
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 12”
and 13” of water column (3 and 3,24 kPa).
When checking for proper operation of the regulator,
USA & CANADA
the inlet pressure must be at least 1” (0,25 kPa) greater
Pressure
regulator
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.
Pressure
test point
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect
the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of
½” and be 5 feet (1,5 m) in length for ease of installation.
The gas regulator on the appliance is set at the factory
for pressures given by regulations.
For the La Cornue ranges and hobs the regulator and the pressure tap can be found on the hob’s manifold
located by the 2 left gas burners
Connect the Range to the Gas Supply
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old
range and leave it off until the new hookup has been completed.
Don’t forget to 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
Male threaded fitting,
thread 1/2 NPT
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.
*Teflon: Registered trademark of DuPont
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.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position range to permit
connection at the shut-off valve.
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.
Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection. Leak testing of the appliance shall be

1. TESTS
Upon initial test of unit
When first testing the gas operated burners, you may find they do not operate. This is normal, and
is caused by air in the gas lines. Simply, operate each burner starting with the top burners, until all
the air is displaced by the gas and ignition will result. This may take 1 to 5 minutes.
On first use, the electronic safety device of the gas oven may switch on (the red indicator light goes
on).
Please press the reset button (B) until air is also displaced in the oven and the flame goes on.

OPERATION Cooktop
Note: The red light (C) at the bottom of the control panel
indicates a problem in the ignition process. Whenever it goes
on, please check that gas is flowing into the appliance, reset by
pressing the ”B” button.
2.5. The oven dishes
There are several different trays in your oven:
The large tray or the pastry tray with an enamelled coating.
This is intended exclusively for pastry-making or for ingredients to be grilled under the gas or electric oven grill.
The large size of this tray means that it can be used as a
cooking tray itself but is generally used for very large pieces of
meat. You should not use it to cook poultry or small roast.
The large roasting rack allows for the following:
- to place a roast in a terra cotta dish to sit on the roasting rack
in the large tray. Therefore, by using this system one makes
the most of the natural air convection, allowing for
the air flow to travel round and under the food.
- to place to roast directly onto the roasting rack in
the large tray. The roast will remain seasoned as well
as remaining medium rare or rare if you desire.
By using the ”spit” concept, the hot air envelopes the
entire piece of meat regardless of its size.

stove).
2.6. Instal lation of the ”shelf” tray
The sliders of the oven and the ”shelf” tray are supplied with stops in order to avoid taking away the shelves
inadvertently; these shelves can be removed and replaced easily.
Setting up of the ”shelf” tray
Before using your oven in complete safety, you must set up
correctly the shelves trays. To position the shelf tray at the
requested height, put it above the lateral oven slider (stops
at the back). Then push the tray to the very back of the
oven until the stops are positioned behind the sliders.
Pull the shelf tray until the back of the tray is blocked by
the stops of the lateral oven sliders.
Taking away the ”shelf” tray
stops
Push the shelf tray which is on the sliders to the back of the oven; lift the back of the tray so the stops are
positioned above the sliders, then pull the tray towards you.

3. STARTING WITH THE COOKTOP ELEMENTS
3.1. Open tops, hot tops, open top broiler or griddle with electronic ignition
To ignite the gas burner: press the control knob and rotate it counter clockwise,
to the ”big flame” position. The gas at the burner ignites automatically. Keep the
USA & CANADA
knob pressed in for 5 to 10 seconds, or longer if necessary (up to 30 seconds on
new equipment).
The sparking noise means that the ignition system is operating normally.
- Low setting: this is achieved by rotating the knob fully counter clockwise
(small flame).
- Shutoff: bring the knob back to its vertical position by rotating it to the right.
3.2. Round electric plates
Depending on models, your cooking appliance may be equipped with an element
with 2 round electric plates with a diameter of 18 cms for one and 20 cms for the other.
The round electric plates are made out of cast iron and are controlled by the knob
located on the front of the cooktop.
Their total electrical output is 4,000 Watts (13,600 BTU’s).
The knob have 3 marked positions ranging from warm (number 1) to very hot (number 3).
The largest of the two plates is the most powerful and is the one we suggest using
when cooking with large pans.
