Tested in accordance with ANSI Z21.
Standard for Household Cooking Gas
Appliances.

A suitable exhaust hood must be installed above
the range / cooktclp. The following chart indi-
cates the minimum blower capacity recommend.
ed for hood ventilation.
These ranges and must be installed in conjunc-
tion with a suitable overhead vent hood. (See Step
1 for ventilation requirements.) Due to the profes-
sional high heat capacity of this unit, particular
attention should be paid to the hood and duct
work installation to assure it meets local building
codes. To eliminate risk of burns or fire by reach-
ing overheated surface units, cabinet storage
located above the surface units should be avoided.
.{:;f1U
~[;:
Ventilation hoods and blowers
are designed for USt' with single wall ducting.
Howeve1; some 10ctOrl building codes or inspectors
may require doubu' wall ducting. Consult local
building codes and/or local agencies, before starting,
to assure that hood and duct installation will meet
local. requirements.
Hood blower speeds should be variable to reduce
noise and loss of heated or air conditioned house-
hold air when ma>:imum ventilation is not
required. Normally, the maximum blower speed
is only required when using the B-B-Q grill.
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge 06 the
hood should be installed a minimum of 30" to a
maximum of 36" above the range cooking sur-
face, -See Fig. 3.
If the hood contains any com-
bustible materials (i.e. a wood covering) it must
be a minimum of ;36" above the cooking surface.
Check local building codes for the proper
method of range installation. Local codes vary.
Installation, Electrical connections, and
Grounding must comply with all applicable
codes. In the absence of local codes, the range I
cooktop should be installed in accordance with
the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-
1988 and National Electrical Code ANSI I NFPA
70-1990.
Be sure that the unit being installed is set up for
the kind of gas being used. The gas range is
shipped from the factory set and adjusted for
Natural Gas. If LP Gas (propane) is to be used,
refer to Step Five for instructions on converting
the range for LP use. (The unit is shipped
equipped for LP conversion: no additional parts
are required, but adjusting is necessary) Only a
qualified service technician or installer should
make this conversion.
Due to a high volt;Lme of vent.~lation air, a source
of outside replacenrlent air is recommended. This
is particularly imp'Drtant for tightly sealed and
insulated homes. A reputable .heating and venti-
lating contractor s]t1ould be consulted.
