Important Safety Information
VENTILATION WARNINGS
• Therangeshouldhaveproperventilationinorderto
keep the unit operating properly and maintain the
temperature of immediate surroundings within safe
limits. Check your local building codes as they may vary
from the general rules outlined in this guide.
• Observeallgoverningcodesandordinances.Donot
obstructowofcombustionandventilationair.
• Itistheinstaller’sresponsibilitytocomplywith
installationclearancesspeciedonthemodel/serial
rating plate.
• Forproperoperationofagasappliance,theair
necessary for the combustion of the gas must be able
toowintotheroomnaturally.Theairmustowinto
the room directly through openings in the outside walls.
These openings must have an unobstructed cross-
sectionnotlessthan2m3/hforeachkwofpower(see
total power in kw on the appliance).
• Thisopeningmustbeconstructedsothatitwill
not be obstructed from inside or outside, and not
beconstructedclosetotheoor.Theopeningis
recommended to be on the side opposite to that on
whichtheuegasesaredischarged.
• The range should be located for convenient use in
the kitchen.
• Recessedinstallationsmustprovidecompleteenclosure
of the sides and rear of the range.
• Toeliminatetheriskofburnsorrebyreaching
overheated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood or microwave hood combination
with minimum 400 CFM that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5” (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of
the cabinets.
• Ifarangehoodisinstalledabovetheappliance,
maintain a 30” minimum clearance between cooking
surface and bottom of range hood. The range hood
mustbeconnecteddirectlytouesortotheoutside.
• Avoidplacingcabinetrydirectlyabovetheappliance
when possible. If cabinetry is used above the cooking
surface, use cabinets no more than 13” deep. Make
sure the wall coverings, countertop and cabinets around
the appliance can withstand heat up to 200º F (93°C)
generated by the appliance.
• Cabinetopeningdimensionsthatareshownmustbe
used. Given dimensions are minimum clearances.
• Working areas adjacent to the range should have
18” minimum clearance between countertop and
cabinet bottom. (See Figure 1)
• Allopeningsinthewalloroorwhererangeistobe
installed must be sealed.
• Contactaqualiedoorcoveringinstallertocheckthat
theoorcoveringcanwithstandatleast200°F(93°C).
• Useaninsulatedpador1/4”(0.64cm)plywoodunder
range if installing range over carpeting.
• Theooranti-tipbracketmustbeinstalled.Toinstallthe
anti-tipbracketshippedwiththerange,see“InstallAnti-
Tip Bracket” section on page 21.
• Groundedelectricalsupplyisrequired.See“Connect
to AC” section on page 23, as well as the safety
precautions on page 10.
• Propergassupplyconnectionmustbeavailable.See
“GasConnection”sectiononpages16and17,aswell
as the safety precautions on page 9.
