PLANNING THE INSTALLATION IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION The RGSC-305 is tested in accordance with ANSI Z21.1 Standard for Household Cooking Gas Appliances. The range must be installed in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood. (See Step 1 for ventilation requirements, page 4). 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.
PLANNING THE INSTALLATION Recommended Installation Instruction (when using BGS-3030 Backguard) Install components in the following order: a. Vent Hood b. Backguard System c. Range 1. Locate and level range according to Range installation instructions. 2. Measure distance from floor to top of island trim on range adding 1/8” for backguard clearance. 3. Transfer this measurement to the wall. This will mark the bottom of your backguard. 4. From this line measure 28-1/8” up wall to mark top of 30” backguard.
CABINET PREPARATION STEP 2: CABINET PREPARATION 1. The range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in Fig. 3 are required. The same clearances apply to island installations . 2. The range can be placed in various positions with respect to the cabinet front, with the front either flush or projecting, depending on the countertop depth (See Fig. 5, page 6). min. 30" wide hood B 12" min. to combustible material , each side A CAUTION: 36" min.

The maximum depth of over head cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13". 5. Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed. 6. When there is less than a 12" clearance between combustible material and the back edge of the range, (above the cooking surface) a DCS Backguard must be installed (see Fig. 5).

The flex line for the gas supply must be metal and be approved by CSA, AGA, CGA OR UL. Only use a metal supply hose, as the heat may cause a rubber hose to melt and develop leaks.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS STEP 7: ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION All ranges must have an anti-tip device correctly installed as per these instructions. If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure that the device is properly engaged when you push the range back against the wall.
