INSTRUCTIONS
FOR 24” GAS BUILT-IN WALL OVEN (Short Model1
Before you begin, read the following instructions completely and carefully. If followed, they
will simplify the installation job.
IMPORTANT: OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING
CODES AND ORDINANCES.
Input ratings shown on the rating plate [serial taglare for elevatrons
up to 2,OflCl feet. For elevatrons above 2,000 feet. ratings should be
reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
This lnstallatlon must conform with the American Natlonal Standard, Natlonal Fuel Gas Code ANSI 2223.1-l 980’ and local codes
and ordinances.
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION REDUIREMENTS ARE
LISTED ON PAGE 4.
PROPER GAS SUPPLY
Thus unit IS manufactured for use with NATURAL GAS. It
can be converted for use on LP GAS. The rating plate located under the marn top has the information on the type
of gas this unit can be used with. When in doubt check
with your local gas supplier.
Provide a gas supply line to the unit location. We suggest
using a 74” rigid pipe, as smaller size pipe on long runs may
result In the gas supply not being sufficient. Pipe lolnt
compounds resistant to the action of LP gas must be
used.
The supply line should be equipped with a shutoff valve.
This valve should always be located
the range and should be in a locatron that allows ease of
opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff
valve.
If local codes permit, It is recommended that flexible
metal tubing design-certified by the American Gas Association, be used for connecting the appliance to the gas
supply line. (The gas valve connection will accept a 3%”
male pipe thread.1
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 unit.

The gas pressure regulator on this model is convertible
and must be used. This regulator can be used on either
NATURAL or LP gases. The pressure regulator has fixed
outlet pressure at NATURAL and LP settings and these
cannot be changed. The fixed outlet pressure on NATURAL gas setting is 4 Inches W.C. On the LP gas setting
the outlet pressure
IS
10 inches W.C.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A 1 15 Volt, 60 Hz. AC only, 15 Ampere fused electrical supply is required [time delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended]. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance be provided. DO NOT use an extension
cord.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING
METHOD
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded.
This appliance
a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard,
the cord must be plugged into a mating 3prong grounding
type wall receptacle, grounded In accordance with the Natlonal ElectrIcal Code, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-1961 l * and
local codes and ordinances. If a mating receptacle is not
available, it
the customer to have a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a quaIlfled electrician. See Figure I.

To change the regulator setting:
Remove the aluminum hex nut [plug] with a wrench or
coin. Turn the hex nut or plug over and screw It back Into
the regulator. Caution: Do not over tighten.
If the unit IS to be used on a NATURAL gas, NAT should
be vlslble on the regulator plug. If the unit is to be used
on LP gas, LP should be visible on the regulator plug.
