Installation Requirements
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS AND CUTOUTS
GAS VALVE LOCATION
• An agency-approved, properly-sized manual shut-off valve should be installed no
higher than 3" (76 mm) above the floor and no less than 2" (51 mm) and no more than
8" (203 mm) from the right side of the range (facing product).
• To connect gas between shut-off valve and regulator, use an agency-approved,
properly sized flexible or rigid pipe. Check all local code requirements.
INSTALLATION ADJACENT TO KITCHEN CABINETS
• The range may be installed directly adjacent to existing standard countertop cabinet
heights of 36" (914 mm) from the floor.
• For the best look, the range top should be level with the cabinet countertop, depending
on your kitchen layout. This can be accomplished by adjusting the leg height as noted on
“Installing The Legs” on page 8.
• NOTE: The range CANNOT be installed directly adjacent to kitchen walls, tall cabinets,
tall appliances, or other vertical surfaces above 36" (914 mm) high. The minimum side
clearance in such cases is 6" (152 mm).
• Wall cabinets with minimum side clearance must be installed 18" (457 mm) above the
countertop with countertop height between 35 1/2" (901 mm) and 37 1/4" (946 mm).
The maximum depth of wall cabinets above the range shall be 13" (330 mm).
• For cutout depth, the recommendation for all RA models is the standard cabinet depth of
24" (610 mm) so the front face of the oven sticks out from the counter to fully and safely
open the door for optimal use.
• For cutout width between cabinets, the recommendations below are slightly larger than
the actual product widths noted on pages 45 and page 11; this allows for
minimal clearance on each side. Kitchen layouts may vary slightly, so adjust accordingly:
• RA24 series ranges: 24" (610 mm)
• RA30 series ranges: 30" (762 mm)
• RA36 series ranges: 36" (914 mm)
• RA48 series ranges: 48" (1219 mm)
• RA60 series ranges: 60" (1524 mm)
WARNING
Do not install ranges in an island configuration. Exposed areas of the range
may become hot and can cause injury.
