INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - FREESTANDING GAS RANGE
5.6 CAPACITY
DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO
OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN DURING
AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE. RESET ALL OVEN
CONTROLS TO “OFF” IN THE EVENT OF A POWER
FAILURE.
The electric ignitor will automatically re-ignite the oven
burner when power resumes if the oven thermostat control
was left in the “ON” position.
When an electrical power failure occurs during use, the
surface burners will continue to operate.
During a power outage, the surface burners can be lit with
a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then slowly
turn the knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.
Never leave children alone or
unattended in the area where an appliance is in use. Teach
children the proper, safe use of all appliances. Never leave
the oven door open when the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or
drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and can
also cause damage to the range.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Children could be seriously
burned climbing on the range to reach items.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface
burners, cabinet storage space above the burners
should be avoided.
• Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the cooking utensil. Excessive
flame is hazardous.
• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates
a potentially hazardous situation.
• Never use your range for warming or heating the
room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance.
Explosions or fires could result.
• Reset all controls to the “OFF” position after using a
programmable timing operation.
• Unlike some gas ranges, the cooktop is not removable.
Do not attempt to remove the cooktop.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Installation of this range must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edition when
installed in the United States.
• When installed in a manufactured (mobile) home,
installation must conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280 [formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD (Part 280)] or,
when such standard is not applicable, the Standard
for Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI/NCSBCS
A225.1, or with local codes.
• This range has been design certified by CSA
International. As with any appliance using gas and
generating heat, there are certain safety precautions
you should follow. You will find them in the
Use & Care
Guide, read it carefully.
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly
by a qualified installer or service technician.
• This range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence, with
the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No .70—
latest edition when installed in the United States. See
Grounding Instructions on page 8.
• Before installing the range in an area covered with
linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make
sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least
90°F above room temperature without shrinking,
warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over
carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet
of 1/4-inch thick plywood between the range and
carpeting.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand the heat generated by the range.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the oven
vent nor around the base or beneath the lower front
panel of the range. Avoid touching the vent openings
or nearby surfaces as they may become hot while the
oven is in operation. This range requires fresh air for
proper burner combustion.
• Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which
operate by blowing a downward air flow on to a range,
shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other
than when the hood and range have been designed,
tested and listed by an independent test laboratory for
use in combination with each other.
