Gas and Electrical Requirements
Electrical Power Supply
Requirements
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that
the electrical connection of this appliance
is performed by a qualified electrician. The
electrical installation, including minimum supply
wire size and grounding, must be in accordance
with the National Electric code ANSI/NFPA 70-
1993* (or latest revision) and local codes and
ordinances.
*A copy of this standard may be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101
The correct voltage, frequency, and amperage
must be supplied to the appliance from a
separate, grounded, circuit that is protected by a
properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Refer to the data plate, and/or the Table above,
for gas supply requirements.
WARNING:
If the gas or electric service
provided does not meet the
product specifications, do not
proceed with the installation.
Call the selling dealer, the gas
supplier, or a licensed electrician.
NOTES:
1. The power supply must
be properly polarized.
Reverse polarity will result in
continuous sparking of the
electrodes, even after flame
ignition.
2. If there is any doubt as to
whether the power supply
is properly polarized or
grounded, have it checked by
a qualified electrician.
3. If the appliance is connected
to a 120/208 volt power supply,
preheat times and cavity
temperature recovery times
will be increased slightly.
Gas and Electrical Rough-In
Locations
NOTE:
The shaded areas shown in
the illustrations, denotes the
location of the gas stub and the
electrical junction box/receptacle.
These are suggested locations.
For replacement purposes, the
location of the existing utilities
may be utilized provided that they
do not interfere with the sides
or rear of the range. Verify that
local building codes will permit
installing the gas valve behind the
range.
A manual shut off valve must be installed in the
gas piping, external to the appliance, for the
purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the
appliance. Plan the location of the range and the
gas supply to allow access to the valve when
the unit is installed. Access to the remote circuit
breaker panel/fuse box, with the range in place,
must also be allowed for in the installation. Any
openings in the wall behind the appliance and in
the floor under the appliance must be sealed.
Both the gas supply piping and shut-off valve,
and the electrical junction box/receptacle
must be located so they do not interfere with
the range when it is installed. In addition, the
junction box must be located so the range
can be removed for service when the conduit
supplied with the unit is attached to the junction
box. Do not lengthen the conduit or wiring
provided with the range.
All dimensions shown are based on standard
American cabinets 36 inches (914mm) high
at the finished countertop by 24 inches
(610mm) deep, with a 25 inch (635mm) overall
countertop depth. When installing the range
into nonstandard cabinets, minimum clearances
shown in the diagrams must be maintained.
Carefully check the location where the range is
to be installed. For best performance, the range
should be placed away from drafts that may be
caused by doors, windows and HVAC outlets.
Cabinet and Countertop Preparation
NOTES:
1. If cabinet storage space is to
be provided directly above
the range, the risk of personal
injury may be reduced by
installing a ventilating hood
that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 inches beyond
the face of the cabinets.
2. The range may be installed
flush to the rear wall. We
recommend installing a non-
combustible material on the
rear wall above the range
and up to the vent hood. It
is not necessary to install
non-combustible materials
behind the range below the
countertop height.
3. The minimum distance from
the sides of the range above
the countertop to combustible
side walls must be at least 6
inches.
