Note:
Please be aware, required restraint is attached to a bracket, and if disconnection of the restraint
is necessary, be sure to reconnect the restraint after the appliance has been returned to its
original installed position.
The local gas authority should be consulted at the installation planning stage in order to establish
the availability of an adequate supply of gas and to ensure that the meter is adequate for the
required flow rate. The pipe work from the meter to the appliance must be an appropriate size.
All fixed (non-mobile) appliances must be fitted with an accessible upstream gas shut off valve as
a means of isolating the appliance for emergency shut off and for servicing. A union or similar
means of disconnection must be provided between the gas-cock and the appliance.
A manually operable valve must be fitted to the gas supply to the kitchen to enable it to be
isolated in an emergency. Wherever practical, this shall be located either outside the kitchen or
near an exit in a readily accessible position.
Where it is not practical to do this, an automatic isolation valve system should be fitted which can
be operated from a readily accessible position near the exit.
In locations where the manual isolation valve is fitted or the automatic system can be reset this
notice must be posted:
“ALL DOWNSTREAM BURNER AND PILOT VALVES MUST BE TURNED OFF PRIOR TO
ATTEMPTING TO RESTORE THE SUPPLY. AFTER EXTENDED SHUT OFF, PURGE
BEFORE RESTORING GAS”
Gas Supply Notes
Before assembly and connection, check gas supply.
•The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped on the data plate, see locations
on page 3. Connect a unit stamped “Natural” only to natural gas and stamped “Propane”
only to propane gas.
• If it is a new installation, have the gas authorities check the meter size and piping to
assure that the unit is supplied with the necessary amount of gas supply and pressure to
operate the unit(s).
•Make certain new piping and connections have been made in a clean manner and have
been purged so that piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog pilots, valves or burners.
Use pipe joint compound approved for natural and liquefied petroleum gases.
A gas pressure regulator must be installed to regulate the proper flow of gas to the appliance.
The regulator must be installed between the main gas supply line to the unit shut off valve and
the appliance and must be accessible for servicing. Proper sizing of the regulator is extremely
important, check the BTU rating of the appliance or appliances being regulated by the regulator.
Note:
Contact the factory for regulator sizing when multiple appliances are being installed in a line up or
island suite configuration and are interconnected using the front manifold connections.
Note:
Gas pressure should be checked when the unit is installed and all other equipment on the same
line is on. The operating gas pressure must be the same as that specified on the rating plate. If
necessary, pressure adjustment may be made at the pressure regulator.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system where pressures are in excess of ½ PSIG
(3.45KPA).
When test pressures are ½ PSIG (3.45KPA) or less, the range must be isolated from the gas
supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks. Use
soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame. After piping has
been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully
purged to remove air.
Ventilation Air
The following notes are intended to give general guidance. For detailed recommendations, refer
to the applicable codes in the Country, State, County and City of installation.
•Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Proper ventilation is critical for optimum performance. The ideal method of ventilating gas fired
equipment is the use of properly designed canopy that should extend six inches (152mm) beyond
all sides of the appliance (s) and six feet six inches (1981mm) above the floor. Information on the
construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the standard for "Vapor
Removal from Cooking Equipment," NFPA No. 96 (latest edition), available from the National Fire
Protection Association, on their web site: ht tp://www.nfpa.org/.
A strong exhaust will create a vacuum in the room. For an exhaust vent to work properly,
replacement air must be equal to the amount of air exhausted. An imbalance between exhaust
and replacement air can cause degradation in the appliance’s performance.
All gas burners and pilots need sufficient air to operate. Large objects should not be placed in
front of the appliance(s) that would obstruct the flow of air into the front.
Important- This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes with the National Electrical Code.
Appliances equipped with a flexible electrical supply cord are provided
with a three-prong grounding plug. It is imperative that this plug be
connected into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. If the
receptacle is not the proper grounding type, contact an electrician. Do
not remove the grounding prong from this plug.
The convection range is designed for 120 volt power supply, 15amp circuit and is provided with a
flexible electric supply cord and plug that must be plugged into the proper receptacle. Do not
connect the convection range to electrical supply until after gas connections have been made.
The wiring diagram for the convection range is located behind the front control panel.
