A.  Shut off gas at main supply
B.  Disconnect AC power supply
C.  Disconnect gas line to the inlet pipe.
D.  Carefully remove the range by pulling outward. 

CAUTION:

Range is heavy; use care in handling.

6. Electrical Requirement

Listed on Specification sheet. Electrical installation should comply with national and local codes.

7. Gas Manifold Pressure

Natural gas 5.0” W.C.P.
LP/Propane 10.0” W.C.P.

8. Ventilation

It is recommended that the unit be set under a powered, vented exhaust hood of sufficient size and capacity.  If
the unit incorporates a char-grill feature, the unit 

MUST

be used in conjunction with a powered, vented exhaust

hood of sufficient size and capacity.

9. Flexible Connections:

If this unit is to be installed with flexible couplings and/or quick disconnect fittings, the installer must use a flexible
connector approved by national and local codes.

10. The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can result in potential hazards and/or injuries.

WARNING!!

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is equipped with 3-prong plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded socket. 

DO NOT

cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

Legs

1.  Legs are packed in styrofoam top pack.
2.  Legs should be installed near to where the appliance is to be used, as they are not secure for long transit.  After

unpacking the range, raise it about a foot to remove the bottom shipping skid.  Keep the unit raised to permit the
legs to be screwed into our couplings and lower it gently to keep any undue strain from the legs and internal
mounting hardware.  It is strongly recommended that a pallet or lift jack be used rather than tilting.

NOTE:

If legs are removed from range and range rests on a combustible surface, warranty will be void.

When installing or removing the range for service, a rolling lift jack should be used. 

DO NOT

push against any of the

edges of the range in an attempt to slide it into or out of the installation. Although all metal parts are deburred during
manufacturing, accidents could occur if the range should be moved suddenly or violently. Pushing or pulling a range
(rather than using a lift jack) also increases the possibility of bending the leg spindles or the internal coupling
connectors.

Burn hazard.

To avoid risk of personal injury;
the use of cabinets for storage
above the appliance may result

in a potential burn hazard. Combustible
items may ignite, metallic items may
become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet
storage is to be provided the risk can be
reduced by installing a rangehood that
projects horizontally a minimum 5” (12.7 cm)
beyond the bottom of cabinets.

This appliance should not be used for
space heating. This information is based
on safety considerations.

Avoid any damage to oven vents. The vents
need to be unobstructed and open to provide
proper airflow for optimal oven performance.

Electrical shock hazard.

To avoid risk of electrical shock,
personal injury or death; verify
your appliance has been

properly grounded in accordance with
local codes or in absence of codes, with
the National Electrical Code (NEC).
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition.
