Cabinet Construction; Provide An Adequate Gas Supply - Frigidaire CFGS3035LS3 Installation Instructions Manual

Cabinet Construction
To eliminate the risk of cabinet burns
and fire, do not have cabinet storage space above the
range. If there is cabinet storage space above range,
reduce risk by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the
bottom of the cabinet.
Countertop Preparation
• The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout
edge of your countertop.
• If you have a square finish (flat) countertop, no
countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay
directly on edge of countertop.
• Formed front-edged countertops must have molded
edge shaved flat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from each front corner
of opening (Figure 1).
• Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9
cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge
flattened (Figure 1).

• If the existing cutout width is greater than
30-1116" (76,4 cm), reduce the 3A" (1.9 cm)
dimension.
• Countertop must be level, Place a level on the
countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If the
countertop is not level, the range will not be level.
The oven must be level for satisfactory baking results.
Cooktop sides of range fit over edges of countertop
opening.

Provide an adequate Gas Supply
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed
to operate on 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa)
Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure
regulator is connected to the range manifold and MUST
be connected in series with the gas supply line. If LID/
Propane conversion kit has been used, follow instructions
provided with the kit for converting the pressure
regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Forproper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56 cm)
of water column pressure (3.5 kPa). The inlet pressure
to the regulator must be at least 1 " (.25 kPa) greater
than the regulator manifold pressure setting. Examples:
If regulator is set for natural gas 4" (10,16 cm) manifold
pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm);
if regulator has been converted for LP/Propane gas
10"(25,4 cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be
at least 11 "(27,9 cm).
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4.
The gas supply line should be 1/2" or 3A" I.D. (Interior
Diameter)
The gas supply piping can be through the back wall
(Figure 2, zone 1) or through the floor (Figure 2,
zone 2):
Zonel-Throu h the Back Wall 7"X6" -Thebest
place to have your gas line in is between 1" (2.5 cm) and
8" (20.3cm) from the floor and within 3" (7.6 cm) from
the center line.
Zone 2 - Through the Floor (~2" X 24") - The gas line
can also come through the floor within 12" (30.5 cm)
from the center line against the back wall. In case, you
can remove the "L" shape piece of metal at the bottom
metal portion at the back of the unit. There is absolutely
no problem removing this "L" shape piece of metal, it is
there to protect the gas line especially during transport.
