BEFORE INSTALLATION

• This appliance shall only be installed by an authorized
professional.
• This appliance shall be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's installation instructions.
• This appliance must be installed in accordance with the
norms & standards of the country where it will be
installed.
• The installation of this appliance must conform to local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes,
installations must conform to American National
Standards, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 –
latest edition/NFPA 54 or B149.1.
• The appliance, when installed, must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70.
If local codes permit, a flexible metal appliance connection
conduit with the new AGA or CGA certified design, max. 5
feet (1.5 m) long, ½" I. D. is recommended for connecting
this appliance to the gas supply line. Do not bend or
damage the flexible connector when moving the appliance.
This appliance must be used with the pressure
regulator provided.
The regulator shall be properly installed in order to be
accessible when the appliance is installed in its final
location. The pressure regulator must be set for the type of
gas to be used. The pressure regulator has ½" female pipe
thread. The appropriate fitting must be determined based
on the size of your gas supply line, the flexible metal
connector and the shutoff valve.
The appliance 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 1/2 PSI (13.8" w. c. or 3.5
kPa).
All opening and holes in the wall and floor, back and under
the appliance shall be sealed before installation of the
appliance.
A manual valve shall be installed in an accessible location
in the gas line external to the appliance for the purpose of
turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

TYPE OF GAS

This range can be used with Natural or LP/Propane gas.
The range is shipped from the factory for use with the gas
indicated on the rating label positioned on the lower face of
the control panel and in the last page of this manual. A step
by step conversion procedure is also included in this
manual and in each conversion kit.

GAS PRESSURE

The maximum inlet gas supply pressure incoming to the
gas appliance pressure regulator is 1/2 PSI (13.8" iwc or
3.5 kPa). The minimum gas supply pressure for checking
the regulator setting shall be at least 1" iwc (249 Pa) above
the inlet specified manifold pressure to the appliance; this
operating pressure is 4" iwc (1.00 kPa) for Natural Gas and
10" iwc (2.50 kPa) for LP Gas.

ROOM VENTILATION

An exhaust fan may be used with the appliance; in each
case it shall be installed in conformity with the appropriate
national and local standards. Exhaust hood operation may
affect other vented appliances; in each case it shall be
installed in conformity with the appropriate national and
local standards.
WARNING
This appliance should not be installed with
a ventilation system that directs air in a
downward direction toward the range. This
type of ventilation system may cause
ignition and combustion problems with the
appliance resulting in personal injury,
property damage, or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air
upwards do not have any restriction.
Do not use aerosol sprays in the vicinity of this
appliance while it is in operation.
