IMPORTANT: Disconnect the range and the individual
shut-off valve from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures greater than 1/2 psig. Isolate the range
from the gas supply piping system by closing the
individual manual shut-off valve to the range during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
NOTE: This range is equipped with a gas shut-off
valve located at the rear of the range near the floor.
This shut-off valve is to be used in the event that
service is required. To access the shut-off valve,
remove the toe-kick panel and reach under the range.

WARNING
Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.
Assure that gas supply is turned off at the
shut-off valve:
• Apply pipe thread sealant to the gas inlet located
at the back of the range. Install the 1/2” pipe
elbow (provided) to the gas inlet.
• Connect 5/8” O.D. flexible metal connector to
gas inlet. Connect the other end of the flexible
connector to the house gas supply.
• Turn on the gas and check for leaks:
– Use a liquid leak detector at all joints
and connections in the system.

Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safety hazards associated
with certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord. However, if you
still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-
type appliance extension cord and that the current
carrying rating of the cord in amperes be equivalent
to, or greater than, the circuit rating.
Grounding

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI’s – GFCI’s are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI’s) are devices
that sense leakage of current in a circuit and
automatically switch off power when a threshold
leakage level is detected. These devices must be
manually reset by the consumer. The National
Electrical Code requires the use of GFCI’s in kitchen
receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces.
Performance of the range will not be affected if
operated on a GFCI-protected circuit
but occasional nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker
is possible.
Preferred Method
Ensure proper ground
exists before use
Electrical Requirements
120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated
circuit protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit
breaker or time delay fuse.
