Wiring Diagram Electrical diagrams Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. Attention: Étiqueter tous les fils avant de les débrancher pour effectuer l’entretien des régulateurs. Une erreur de câblage peut entraîner une utilisation inappropriée ou dangereuse. S’assurer du bon fonctionnement de l’appareil après l’entretien.
GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS WARNING Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections. does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column. licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel. re. Observe all governing codes and ordinances. IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances.
LP gas conversion: IMPORTANT: Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician. No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See “Gas Conversions” section. GAS SUPPLY LINE Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply.
Rigid pipe connection: The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. The rigid pipe must be level with the range connection. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line. GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be used.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT: This appliance shall be installed only by authorized persons and in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions, local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, electrical wiring regulations, local water supply regulations. STEP 1 - UNPACK RANGE WARNING Excessive Weight Hazard Use two or more people to move and install range. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury. 1. Remove shipping materials, tape and film from the range.
INSTALL ANTI-TIP CHAIN A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Install anti-tip device to range and / or struture per installation instructions. Engage the range to the anti-tip device installed to the structure Re-engage the anti-tip device if range is moved. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults. Check to see that the Anti-Tip device is installed properly.
FITTING THE ADJUSTABLE FEET The adjustable feet must be fitted to the base of thefreestanding oven before use. Rest the rear of the freestanding oven on a piece of the packaging (i.e. the polystyrene) exposing the base for the fitting of the feet. IMPORTANT! Be very careful not to damage the freestanding oven during this process. Do not have any of the burners or trivets fitted in place when lying the cooker backwards. The freestanding oven is heavy- ensure that you have adequate help.
STEP 2 - MAKE GAS CONNECTION WARNING Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections. If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column. Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.
CONNECT GAS LINE FROM GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR TO GAS SUPPLY: 1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the tapered (NPT) threads of both adapters d supplied with gas line kit. 2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the other to the gas shutoff valve and tighten both. NOTE: Do Not rotate the gas pressure regulator. 3. Attach the flexible gas line c to adapters d, one adapter at each end. IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench tightened (requires two 10" adjustable wrenches).
STEP 3 - MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord plug. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to do so can result in death, fire or electrical shock. 1. Slide range close to final location. 2. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
3. Slowly attempt to tilt the range forward. If you encounter immediate resistance, the range foot is engaged in the anti-tip bracket. Go to Step 8. 4. If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor without resistance, stop tilting the range and lower it gently back to the floor. The range foot is not engaged in the anti-tip bracket. IMPORTANT: If there is a snapping or popping sound when lifting the range, the range may not be fully engaged in the bracket.
STEP 6 - CHECK OPERATION OF ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM The cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the “ICON” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues, as long as the control knob is turned to “ICON.” When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, sparking occurs and ignites the gas.
If the low flame needs to be adjusted: a OFF a Adjustment Screw b Control Knob Stem b MAX MIN 1. Light one burner and turn the control knob to the lowest setting. 2. Remove the control knob. 3. Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver into the adjustment screw, and slowly turn the screw until the flame appearance is correct. • • Open the valve more if the flames are too small or fluttered. Close the valve more if the flames are too large. 4. Replace the control knob. 5.
Ignite the burner of oven 1. Set the working time in timer firstly; 2. Push and turn the knob to ignite; 3. Observe whether the burner is burning through the glass window. If burners do not light properly: 1. Check if the timer have been set? 2. Check if the igniter is light on; 3. Check if the oven knob has already been turned to the ignition position.
LP/PROPANE GAS CONVERSION This appliance can be used with Natural Gas or LP/Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas. A kit for converting to LP gas is supplied with your cooktop. The kit is marked “FOR LP/PROPANE GAS CONVERSION”. When the cooktop is converted for liquid petroleum (LP) gas, the LP gas supply is required to provide a minimum of 10" to a maximum of 14" water column to the cooktop regulator.

Properly Seated Not Properly Seated STEP 3 - ADJUST BURNER FLAMES NOTES: • Turn all burners on highest setting and check the flames. They should be blue in color and may have some yellow tipping at the ends of the flame when using LP gas. Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange flame at first, but this will soon disappear. • • Turn the cooktop burner knob to “LO” while observing the flame. Adjustments must be made with two other burners in operation on a medium setting.
2. Remove the control knob. 3. Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver into the adjustment screw, and slowly turn the screw until the flame appearance is correct. • • Open the valve more if the flames are too small or fluttered. Close the valve more if the flames are too large. 4. Replace the control knob. 5. Test the flame by turning the control from “LO” to “HI,” checking the flame at each setting. 6. Repeat above steps for each burner.
