Gas Supply Requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT:
This installation must conform with all local codes
and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition.
Type of Gas
Natural Gas:
This range is design-certified by the CSA International for use
with natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.
■
This range is factory set for use with natural gas. See “Gas
Conversions” section. The model/serial rating plate located on
the frame behind the broiler door has information on the types
of gas that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not
include the type of gas available, check with the local gas
supplier.
LP Gas conversion:
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas
specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different
gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See “Gas
Conversions” section.
Gas Supply Line
■
Provide a gas supply line of
³⁄₄
" rigid pipe to the range
location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. Pipe joint compounds that resist the
action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON
®†
tape.
With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be
¹⁄₂
" minimum.
Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials
used in the system.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Electrical Requirements
IMPORTANT:
The range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence
of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
latest edition.
This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will
not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association

CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575
■
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit
is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this range be provided.
■
Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits,
but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that
the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded.
■
This range is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3
prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong, grounded outlet.
■
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range.
NOTE:
The metal chassis of the range must be grounded in order
for the control panel to work. If the metal chassis of the range is
not grounded, no keypads will operate. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the metal chassis of
the range is grounded.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
