centerline
D
n
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" rigid
pipe to the range location.
A smaller size -
pipe on long runs may result in insufficient
gas supply.
Pipe-joint
compounds
made
for
use with L.P. gas must be used. With L.P.
gas, piping
or tubing
size can be l/2"
minimum.
L.P. gas suppliers
usually
determine
the size and materials
used on
the system.
t
n
If local codes permit,
a new A.G.A.
design-certified,
4 - 5 foot long, l/2" or 314"
I.D., flexible
metal appliance
connector
is
recommended
for connecting
this range to
the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage
the flexible
tubing
when moving
the range.
A l/2"
male pipe thread
is needed
for
connection
to pressure regulator
shutoff
female
pipe threads.
valve
F
n
The supplv line shall be eauipped
with
an approved
shutoff valve.
This'valve
should be located
in the same room as the
range and should be in a location
that
allows ease of opening
and closing.
Do Not
block access
to shutoff valve.
G
n
If rigid pipe is used as a gas
supply line, a-combination
of pip&fittings
must be used to obtain
an in-line
connection
to the range.
All strains must
be removed
from the supply and fuel lines
so range will be level and in line.
H
n
The reaulator
must be checked
at
a minimum
of 1 %ch water column
above
the set pressure.
The inlet pressure to the
regulator
should be as follows for operation:
NATURAL GAS:
Set pressure 5 inches
Maximum
pressure
1A inches
L.P. GAS:
Set pressure
11 inches
Maximum
pressure
14 inches
I
n
Line pressure testing:
Testing above
l/2 psi (gauge)
The range
and its individual
shutoff valve
must be disconnected
from the gas supply
piping
system during any pressure testing
of that system at test pressures greater
than l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at l/2 psi (gauge)
The range
must be isolated
from the gas
supply piping
system by closing its
individual
manual
shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal
to or less
than l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Electrical
Shock Hazard
l
Electrical
ground
is required
on this
appliance.
l
Improper
connection
of the
equipment-grounding
conductor
can
result in fire, electrical
shock, or other
personal
injury.
l
Check
with a qualified
electrician
if
you are in doubt as to whether
the
appliance
is properly
grounded.
l
Do Not modify
the power supply

cord with this
appliance.
l
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
grounding
circuit.
A fuse in the neutral
or grounding
circuit could result in an
electrical
shock.
Failure to follow these instructions
could
result in a fire, electrical
shock or other
personal
injury.
Panel B
A 12C-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only,
15ampere,
fused
electrical
supply is required.
A time-delay
fuse or circuit breaker
is recommended.
It is
recommended
that a separate
circuit
serving only this appliance
be provided.
Electronic
ignition systems operate
within
wide voltage
limits, but proper
grounding
and polarity
are necessary.
In addition
to
checking
that the outlet provides
120-volt
power and is correctly
grounded,
the outlet
must be checked
by a qualified
electrician
to see if it is wired with correct
polarity.
The wiring diagram
is found on a separate
sheet in the literature
package.
The wiring
diagram
and Tech Sheet can also be found
on the rear wall of the storage
drawer.

PRONG.
For personal
safety, this appliance
is
equipped
with a power
supply cord having
a 3-prong
grounding
plug.
To minimize
possible shock hazard,
the cord must be
plugged
into a mating
3-prong,
grounding-
type wall receptacle,
grounded
in
accordance
with the National
Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition*
and all
local codes and ordinances.
If a mating
wall receptacle
is not available,
it is the
personal
responsibility
and obligation
of the
customer
to have a properly
grounded,
3-prong
wall receptacle
installed
by a
qualified
