Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA .54-latest edition.
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 and 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.

persons
could result.

tip device
packed with
range.
To reduce the risk of
tipping of the range, the

Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Set ups), ANSI Z225.1 latest edition,
or local codes.
• 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 ¼" (10,16 cm) 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.
Never leave children alone or
unattended in the area where an appliance is in use.
As children grow, teach them 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.
Do not make any attempt to operate
the electric ignition oven during an electrical power
failure. Resumption of electric power when OVEN TEMP
and OVEN SET controls are in any position other than OFF
will result in automatic ignition of the oven or broiler
burner. The oven burner and broil burner on your
range are lighted by electrical ignition. The oven
and broiler cannot be operated in the event of a
power failure.
