1.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the appliance is found to
be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Before installing, verify that the gas (natural or propane), the elevation from sea level and the
electrical supply agree with the specification on the data plate. NOTE: If this appliance is being
installed above 2000 feet altitude, contact your authorized service office to assure that the
proper orifice size for your elevation has been installed.
LOCATION
The installation location must be kept free and clear of combustibles. Do not obstruct the flow
of combustion and ventilation air. Clearance from combustible construction must be a minimum
of 3 inches from the sides and 6 inches from the back. The appliance should be installed on a
noncombustible floor. Provide adequate clearances for cleaning, maintenance, service and
proper operation.
Sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the amount of air removed
by any ventilating system and for combustion of the gas burners. Do not obstruct the air flow
into and around the appliance. Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located
at the rear and above the cabinet. Position the appliance in its final location. Check that there
are sufficient clearances to service the controls, for door swings, etc., so there will be no
problem in making the required supply and drain connections.
Allow enough space between any other piece of equipment or a wall for service access.
Service on the cabinet base may require access to the left and/or right side panels.
