Electrical Grounding Instructions
This indoor gas cooking appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug
for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three pronged receptacle.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-
prong wall receptacle.
Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
Before connecting plug to the cord, disconnect the electrical supply.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can
cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
Connect Range to Gas Supply
Most localities will require that the stove shutoff valve and gas connections be in-
stalled by a certified technician or plumber. These instructions are for a profes-
sional. Gas installation specifications and regulations may vary so please consult
your local codes before proceeding.
1. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line as follows:
a. in an easily accessed location outside the range
b. in the gas piping external to the appliance
2. Install male 1/2” flare union adapter to 1/2” NPT internal thread elbow at inlet
of regulator.
On models equipped with standard twin burners, install the male pipe thread end
of the 1/2” flare union adapter to the 1/2” NPT internal thread at inlet of pressure
regulator.
Use a wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.
CAUTION
WARNING
1. Install male 1/2” or 3/4” (3/4” for 48 inch gas range only) flare union
adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking care
to secure the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
2. The gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting is 6 in.w.c.
(Natural Gas) and 11 inch.w.c. (LP gas). Connect flexible gas line connec-
tor to the regulator on the range. Position range to allow connection at
the shut-off valve.
3. When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are
in the OFF position and turn on main gas supply valve.
4. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. Use some soap water (50% water and 50%
soap) or a leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the
system. Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.
5. The appliance must be isolated from the building’s gas supply piping sys-
tem by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig
(3.5kPa).
After installation:
1. Check ignition of cooktop burners.
2. Check ignition of oven burner.
3. Visually check tubular burner (oven burner) re-ignition to be sure both
rows of burner ports are relighting each time.
4. Check for gas leaks at all gas connections (using a gas detector, never a
flame).
5. Check oven bake and convection bake function.
