standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installation 1982
(Manufactured Home Sites, Communities
and Setups), ANSI Z225.1-NFPA 501A 1987 or latest edition, or with local codes.
Wh+ this range is installed in a mobile
home; it must be secured to the floor. Any
methdd of securing the range is adequate
as long as it conforms to,tie standards

qualified instalIer, service
agency or the gas supplier.
Panel A
Fire Hazard
Do Not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
Personal Injury Hazard
Avoid installing cabinet storage above the
cooking surface. lf cabinets are already
installed, reduce the hazard of reaching over
a heated cooking surface by installing a
range hood. The range hood should extend a
minimum of 5 inches out from the bottom
front of the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking surface
could result in a serious burn.
Electrical Shock Hazard
It is the customer’s responsibility:
. To contact a qualified electrical installer.
. To assure that the electrical installation is
adequate and in conformance with
National Electrical Code, ANSUNFPA 70 latest edition*, and all local codes and
ordinances.
Failure to do so could result in electrical
shock or other personal injury.
Tools needed

Gas supply requirements
Observe all governing codes
and ordinances.
Fire Hazard
1 Range must be connected to a regulated
!3= supply.
s L.P. gas supply must Not exceed a
pressure of 14” water column. This must
be checked by a qualified technician
before installing the mnge.
m Do Not use an open flame to test for leaks
from gas connections.
a New, A.G.A. design-certified, flexible gas
line should be used when codes permit.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in a fire, explosion or personal injury.

This installation must conform with local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of
local codes, installations must conform
with American National Standard,
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z233.1latest edition**.
B
InpuFrating shown on the serial/rating plate
are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For
elevations above 2,000 feet, rating are
reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet
above sea level.
C
This r:nge is equipped for use with
NATURAL gas. It is design-certified by
A.G.A. for NATURAL and L.P. gases with
appropriate conversion. The serial/rating
plate located under the cooktop has
information on the type of gas that can be
used. If this information does not agree
with the type of gas available, check with
the local gas supplier. See Panel E for L.P.
qas conversion instructions.
D .
Provide a gas supply line of 314’ rigid pipe
to the range location. A smaller size pipe on
long runs may result in insufficient gas
supply. Pipe-joint compounds made for use
with L.P. gas must be used. With L.P. gas,
piping or tubing size can be l/2’ minimum.
L.P. gas suppliers usually determine the
size and materials used on the system.
E
m
If local codes permit, A.G.A.-approved
flexible metal tubing is recommended
for connecting this range to the gas
supply line. Do Not kink or damage the
flexible tubing when moving the range.
A l/2’ male pipe thread is needed for
connection to pressure regulator female
pipe threads.
F m
The supply line shall be equipped with an
approved shutoff valve. .This valve should
be located in the same room as the range
and should be in a location that allows ease
of opening and closing. Do Not block access
to shutoff valve.
If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a
combination of pipe fittings must be used to
obtain an in-line connection to the range.
All strains must be removed from the
supply and fuel lines so range will be level
and in line.
H .
The regulator must be checked at a
minimum of l-inch water mlumn above the
set pressure. The inlet pressure to the
regulator should be as follows for operation:
NATURAL GAS:
Set pressure 6 inches
Maximum pressure 14 inches
L.P. GAS
Set pressure 11 inches
Maximum pressure 14 inches
, Line pressure testing:
I
Testing above l/2 lb psi (gauge)
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’ greater
than l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at l/2 Ib psi (gauge)
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 l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Electrical
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere,
fused electrical supply is required. A
time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this appliance
be provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate within
wide voltage limits, but proper grounding
and polarity are necessary. In addition
to checking that the outlet provides
120-volt power and is correctly grounded,
the outlet must be checked by a qualified
electrician to see if it is wired with
correct polarity.
The wi&gzarn is incluaea in the
literature package. The wiring diagram is
also located on the back of the range.
Recommended grounding method
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD
GROUNDING PRONG.
For personal safety, this appliance must be
grounded. This appliance is equipped with
a power supply cord having a 3-prong
grounding plug. To minimize possible shock
hazard, the cord must be plugged into a
mating 3-prong, grounding-type wall
receptacle, grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70-latest edition* and all local codes
and ordinances. (See Figure 1.) If a mating
wall receptacle is not available, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of
the customer to have a properly grounded,
3-prong wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
