INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)  
- If the range is pulled away from the wall for  
cleaning, service, or any other reason, ensure that  
the Anti-Tip Device is properly reengaged when the  
range is pushed back against the wall.  
WARNING!  
ALL RANGES CAN TIP  
INJURY TO PERSONS COULD  
All ranges can tip and injury could result. To prevent  
RESULT  
accidental tipping of the range, attach an approved  
Anti-Tip device to the wall. (See “INSTALLING THE  
ANTI-TIP DEVICE” in this manual.) To check if the  
device is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip  
the range forward. The Anti-Tip device should engage  
and prevent the range from tipping over.

PACKED WITH RANGE  
SEE INSTALLATION  
INSTRUCTIONS  
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason,  
make sure the Anti-Tip device is engaged when you  
push the range back against the wall.  
• DO NOT step or sit on the door. Install the Anti-  
Tip Bracket packed with range.  
- The range could be tipped and injury might result  
from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.  
WARNING!  
• Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To minimize  
the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames  
of operating burners, install a ventilation hood over  
the range that projects forward at least 5” beyond  
the front of the cabinets.  
NEVER reuse old flexible connectors. The use of  
old flexible connectors can cause gas leaks and  
personal injury. Always use NEW flexible connectors  
when installing a gas appliance.  
Your range must be installed by a qualified installer.  
• The ventilation hood must be constructed of sheet  
metal not less than 0.0122” thick. Install above  
the cooktop with a clearance of not less than  
1/4” between the hood and the underside of the  
combustible material or metal cabinet.  
The hood must be at least as wide as the appliance  
and centered over the appliance.  
Clearance between the cooking surface and the  
ventilation hood surface MUST NEVER BE LESS  
THAN 24 INCHES.  
Your range should be electrically grounded in  
accordance with local codes or, in the absence  
of local codes, in accordance with the National  
Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition). In  
Canada, electrical grounding must comply with  
the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code  
Part 1 and/or local codes. See “ELECTRICAL  
CONNECTIONS” in this manual.  
Before installing your range on linoleum or any  
other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor  
covering can resist 180°F(82°C) without shrinking,  
warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over  
carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4” thick plywood or  
similar insulator is placed between the range and  
carpeting.  
EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven  
or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform  
to the installation instructions packed with that  
appliance.  
Make sure the wall coverings around the range can  
resist heat generated by the range up to 200°F  
(93°C).  
• If cabinets are placed above the range, allow a  
minimum clearance of 30” between the cooking  
surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.  
desprotegidos.  
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted  
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)  
WARNING!  
• If a 30” clearance between cooking surface and  
overhead combustible material or metal cabinets  
cannot be maintained, protect the underside of  
the cabinets above the cooktop with not less than  
1/4” insulating millboard covered with sheet metal  
not less than 0.0122” thick. Clearance between  
the cooking surface and protected cabinets MUST  
NEVER BE LESS THAN 24 INCHES.  
• The vertical distance from the plane of the cooking  
surface to the bottom of adjacent overhead  
cabinets extending closer than 1” to the plane of  
the range sides must not be less than 18”. (See  
the Dimensions and Clearances illustration in this  
manual.)  
CAUTION  
Items of interest to children should not be stored  
in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of  
a range—children climbing on the range to reach  
items could be seriously injured.  
DO NOT attempt to operate the oven of this range  
during a power failure.  
IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
DIMENSIONS AND CLEARANCES  
Provide proper clearances between the range and  
adjacent combustible surfaces. These dimensions must  
be met for safe use of your range. The location of the  
electrical outlet and pipe opening (see “GAS PIPE AND  
ELECTRICAL OUTLET LOCATIONS”) may be adjusted to  
meet specific requirements.  
The range may be placed with 0” clearance (flush) at the  
back wall.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
LOCATION  
Do not locate your range where it may be subject to  
When the floor covering ends at the front of the range,  
strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind  
the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings  
around the base of the range that supply fresh air  
for combustion and ventilation are not blocked by  
carpeting or woodwork.  
the area that the range will be installed on should be  
built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the  
floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for  
cleaning and servicing, as well as proper air flow to the  
range.  
Your range, like many other household units, is heavy and  
can be installed on soft floor coverings such as cushioned  
vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving the range on  
this type of flooring.  
It is recommended that the following simple and  
inexpensive instructions be followed to protect your floor.  
Also, make sure the floor covering can resist 180°F (82°  
C). See the "INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS"  
(included in this manual).  
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can  
resist the heat generated (up to 200°F/93°C) by the range.  
See the "INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS"  
(included in this manual).  
This appliance must not be installed with a ventilation  
system that blows air downward toward the range.  
This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and  
combustion problems with the gas cooking appliance  
resulting in personal injury or unintended operation.

1. PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY  
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of  
5” of water column on natural gas or 10” of water  
column on LP.  
For LP gas, the pressure supplied to the regulator must be  
between 10” and 13” of water column. When checking for  
correct operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must  
be at least 1” more than the operating (manifold) pressure  
as given above.  
Make sure you are supplying your range with the type of  
gas for which it is configured.  
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range  
must remain in the supply line regardless of which type of  
gas is being used.  
This range is convertible for use on natural or LP gas.  
When using this range on LP gas, conversion must be  
made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to  
operate the range.  
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the  
range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 5/8”  
and a max of 5ft. In Canada, flexible connectors must be  
single wall metal connectors less than 6 feet in length.  
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied  
to the regulator must be between 5” and 13” of water  
column.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
2. CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS  
Shut off the range gas supply valve before removing  
the old range and leave it off until the new hook-up  
has been completed.  
Connect a flexible metal appliance connector to  
the adapter on the range. Position range to permit  
connection at the shut-off valve.  
C
Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,  
the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal  
appliance connector should be used unless local codes  
require a hard-piped connection.  
When all connections have been made, be sure all  
range controls are in the off position and turn on the  
main gas supply valve. Gas leaks may occur in your  
system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks  
may not be detected by smell alone.  
D
NEVER reuse an old connector when installing a new  
range.  
Check all gas connection joints and fittings for leaks  
with a non-corrosive leak detection fluid, then wipe off.  
To protect against gas leaks, use a qualified pipe joint  
sealant on all external threads.  
Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install  
an UL approved gas detector. Install and use in  
accordance with Installation instructions.  
Install male 1/2” or 3/4” flare union adapter to the NPT  
A
internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking  
care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it from  
turning.
