IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION
The RDS Series is tested in accordance to UL Standard 858 and ANSI Z21.1. These ranges must be
installed in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood. Due to the professional high heat
capacity of this unit, particular attention should be paid to the hood and duct work installation to
ensure it meets local building codes. To eliminate risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface
units, cabinet storage located above the surface units should be avoided.
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 should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-1988
and National Electrical Code ANSI / 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 or
LP (propane), depending on the specific model ordered. Verify that the range is compatible with
gas supply at the installation site before proceeding further. Return range to dealer if unit is not
set for site gas supply.
