AWARNING!

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to

publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and

requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon

monoxide, formaldehgde and soot, caused primarilg bg the incomplete combustion of natural gas or

LP fuels. Prapeflg adjusted buraers, indicated by a bluish rather than a gellow flame, will minimize

incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized bg venting with an open

window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

Have the installer show gou the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessarg.

_ Have your range installed and properly

grounded by a qualified installer, in

accordance with the Installation Instructions.

Any adjustment and service should be

performed only by qualified gas range

installers or service technicians.

_ Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically

recommended in this manual. All other service

should be referred to a qualified technician.

i_}Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded

outlet only. Do not remove the round

grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt

about the grounding of the home electrical

system, it is your personal responsibility and

obligation to have an ungrounded outlet

replaced with a properly grounded,

three-prong outlet in accordance with

the National Electrical Code. Do not use

an extension cord with this appliance.

IMPORTANTSAFETYINFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONSBEFOREUSING.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

_, Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path

and out of drafty locations to prevent poor

air circulation.

i_ Be sure all packaging materials are

removed from the range before operating it

to prevent fire or smoke damage should the

packaging material ignite.

w, Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by

a qualified service technician or installer for

the type of gas (natural or LP)that is to be

used. Your range can be converted for use

with either type of gas. See the Installation

of the range section.

WARNING: These adjustments must

be made by a qualified service technician

in accordance with the manufacturer's

instructions and all codes and requirements

of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure

to follow these instructions could result in

serious injury or property damage. The

qualified agency performing this work

assumes responsibility for the conversion.

_ After prolonged use of a range, high floor

temperatures may result and many floor

coverings will not withstand this kind of use.

Never install the range over vinyl tile or

linoleum that cannot withstand such type

of use. Never install it directly over interior

kitchen carpeting.

_ Do not leave children alone or unattended

where a range is hot or in operation.

They could be seriously burned.

_ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or

hang on the oven door, lower oven drawer or

cooktop. They could damage the range and

even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

_CAUTION: Items of interest to children

should not be stored in cabinets above a

range or on the backsplash of a range-

children climbing on the range to reach items

could be seriously injured.

WARNING: NEVERusethis

appliance as a space heater to heat or

warm the room. Doing so may result

in carbon monoxide poisoning and

overheating of the oven.

i_}Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments

while using the appliance. Be careful when

reaching for items stored in cabinets over the

range. Flammable material could be ignited if

brought in contact with flame or hot oven

surfaces and may cause severe burns.

i_}Do not store flammable materials in an oven,

a range drawer or near a cooktop.

!:,_iDonot store or usecombustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

_ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate in or near the range.

_ Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick

up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.

Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner

by covering the pan completely with

a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.

Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or

foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaminggrease outside a pan can be put

out by covering it with baking soda or,

if available,by using a multi-purpose dry

chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer

can be smothered completely by closing the

oven door or drawer and turning the control

to off or by using a multi-purpose dry

chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher

!:,_iLet the burner grates and other surfaces cool

before touching them or leaving them where

children can reach them.

¢_;_Never block the vents (air openings) of the

range. They provide the air inlet and outlet

that are necessary for the range to operate

properly with correct combustion. Air openings

are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the

top and bottom of the oven door, and at the

bottom of the range under the lower oven

drawer.

!:,_iLarge scratches or impacts to glass doors

can lead to broken or shattered glass.

WARNING!

SURFACEBURNERS

Use proper pan size--ovoid pans that ore unstable or easilg tipped. Select cool<wore having fiat

bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To ovoid spillovers, make sure cool<wore is large enough

to contain the food properlg. This will bath save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations

of food, since heav_l spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that con

be eosilg grasped and remain cool

!:;_iAlways use the LITE position when igniting

the top burners and make sure the burners

have ignited.

!:;_iNever leave the surface burners unattended

at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking

and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

_ Adjust the top burner flame size so it

does not extend beyond the edge of the

cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.

_ Use only dry pot holders- moist or damp pot

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns

from steam. Do not let pot holders come near

open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use

a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot

holder.

i!:_When using glass cookware, make sure it

is designed for top-of-range cooking.

!:;_iTo minimize the possibility of burns, ignition

of flammable materials and spillage, turn

cookware handles toward the side or back

of the range without extending over adjacent

burners.

_ Carefully watch foods being fried at a high

flame setting.

_ Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

_ Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The

hot air from the vent may ignite flammable

items and will increase pressure in closed

containers, which may cause them to burst.

i!:_If a combination of oils or fats will be used

in frying, stir together before heating or

as fats melt slowly.

i_:_Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond

the smoking point.

_¢Use the least possible amount of fat for

effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the

pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when

food is added.

!:;_iDo not flame foods on the cooktop. If you

do flame foods under the hood, turn the

fan on.

!:;_iDo not use a wok on the cooking surface

if the wok has a round metal ring that is

placed over the burner grate to support the

wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which may

damage the burner grate and burner head.

Also, it may cause the burner to work

improperly. This may cause a carbon

monoxide level above that allowed by current

standards, resulting in a health hazard.

_ Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.

Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh

foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and

over the sides of the pan.

i_ Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat fryen Wait until the fat is cool.

i_ Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop--

they may melt if left too close to the vent.

!:;_iKeep all plastics away from the surface

burners.

_To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be

certain that the controls for all burners are

at the OFF position and all grates are cool

before attempting to remove them.

_ If range is located near a window, do not hang

long curtains that could blow over the surface

burners and create a fire hazard.

_ If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range

and call a qualified service technician. Never

use an open flame to locate a leak.

i_ Always turn the surface burner controls off

before removing cookware.

!:;_iDo not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can

lead to damage and improper operation of

the range.

_; When disabling Gas/Control Lockout, make

sure the surface controls are set to the OFF

position. This will preclude gas flow when the

range is turned on

Using the upper oven.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Before you begin...

Theshelves have stop-locks, so that when

placed correctly on the shelf supports (A

through E),they will stop before coming

completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware,

pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf

support.

To remove o shelf, pull it toward gou, tilt the

front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the shelf(stop-

locks}on the support, tilt up the front and

push the shelf in.

NOTE:Theshelf is not designed to slide out at

the speciallow shelf(R)position.

The oven has 5 shdf positions

It also has a special low shelf

position {R)for extra large items,

such as a large turkey

Plastic items on the cooktop may

melt if left too close to the vent

Vent appearance and location vary

Upper Oven Vent

Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear

of the range. Do not block these ducts when

cooking in the oven-it is important that the

flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to

the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid

touching the vent openings or nearby

surfaces during oven or broiler operation-

theg mag become hot.

_Handles of pots and pans on the eooktop

mog becomehot if left too dose to the vent.

_, Do not leaveplastic or fbmmoble items on

the cooktop-theg may melt or ignite if left

too closeto the vent.

_I Do not leave closed containers on the coo!<top.

Thepressure in closed containers may

increase which may cause them to burst.

_Metal items will become very hot if they are

left on the cooktop,and could cause burns.

Power Outage

CAUTION:Do not make any attempt to

operate the electric ignition oven during an

electrical power failure.

The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a

power failure. Gaswill not flow unlessthe

glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power failure

occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot

be re-lit until power is restored. This is

because the flow of gas isautomaticallg

stopped and will not resume when power is

restored until the glow bar has reached

[] Check food for doneness at minimum

time on recipe.Cooklonger if necessarg.

[] Touchthe CLEAR/OFFpad when

cooking is complete.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe callsfor it.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct

temperature. Preheating is necessarg

when convection baking and for good results

when baking cakes,cookies,pastrg and

breads.

For ovenswithout opreheat indicator light

or tone,preheat 7 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans

are centered in the oven as much as possible.

Pansshould not touch each other or the

walls of the oven. If gou need to use two

shelves,stagger the pans so one is not

directlg above the other,and leave

approximatelg 1W' between pans, from

the front, back and sidesof the wall.

Aluminum Fail

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of

the oven.

Never entirelg cover a shelfwith aluminum

foil.Thiswill disturb the heat circulation and

result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil mag be used to catch a

spillover bg placing it on a lower shelfseveral

inches below the food.

Oven Moisture

As gour oven heats up, the temperature

change of the air in the oven mag cause

water droplets to form on the door glass.

Thesedroplets are harmless and will

evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

Using the probe.

For mang foods, especially roasts and poultr_l, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness.

The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of cooking foods to the exact aloneness you want.

The temperature probe has o

skewer like probe at one end and

o plug at the other end that goes

into the outlet in the oven

Use of probes other than the one provided

with this product mag result in damage to

the probe.

Usethe handles of the probe and plug when

inserting and removing them from the food

and outlet.

_!_Toavoid damaging gour probe, do not use

tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.

_!¢Toovoid breakingthe probe, make sure food

is completely defrostedbefore inserting.

i;I Toprevent possibleburns, do not unplug

the probe from the outlet until the oven

has cooled.

_Never leave gour probe inside the oven

during a self-cleaningcycle.

;_ Do not store the probe in the oven.

After preparing the meat and placing it on a

trivet or on a broiler pan grid, follow these

directions for proper probe placement.

Insert the probe completelg into the meat.

It should not touch the bone, fat or gristle.

For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into

the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in

ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center

of the lowest large muscle.

Insert the probe into the center of dishessuch

as meat loaf or casseroles.

Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the

inner thigh from below and parallelto the leg

of a whole turkeg.

Usingthe convectionoven. ge.com

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOTleove the door open for long periods of time

while using convection cooking.

In o convection oven, Ofort

circulates hot air over, under and

around the food This circulating

hot air is evenlg distributed

throughout the oven cavity As a

result, foods are evenlg cooked and

browned-often in less time than

with regular heat

NOTE:Tomaximize cooking

evenness, the fan is designed to

rotate in both directions with o

pause in between Thisis normal

To help gnu understand the difference

between convection bake and roast and

traditional bake and roast, here are some

general guidelines.

Convection Bake

i_ Preheat the oven.Seethe Usingthe Oven-

Preheating and Pan Placement section.

_!Ideal for foodscooked on multiple shelves.

_!Goodfor large quantities of baked foods.

i_ Goodresults with cookies,biscuits,

brownies, cupcakes,creampuffs, sweet

rolls, angd food cake and bread.

The convection fan circulates the heated

air evenlg over and around the food.

Convection Roast

_Good for large tender cuts of meat,

uncovered.

The convection fan circulates the heated air

evenly over and around the food. Heat and

poultry are browned on all sidesas if theg

were cooked on a rotisserie.Heated air will

be circulated over,under and around the

food being roasted. The heated air sealsin

juices quickly for a moist and tender product

while, at the same time, creating a rich

golden brown exterior

Roastsor poultry should be cooked on shelf

position (A).

When gou are convection roasting, it is

important that gou use a broiler pan and grid

for best convection roasting results.Thepan

is used to catch grease spillsand the grid is

used to prevent grease spatters.

_!_Placethe shelfin shelfposition (A).

Auto Recipe" Conversion

Youcan use your favorite recipes in the

convection oven.

When using CONVECTIONBAKE,the oven

will automatically convert the oven

temperature from regular baking to

Convection Bake temperatures.

[] Using the number pads, enter

the temperature recommended

in the recipe.

[] Touch the STARTpad.

The displag will show the temperature

gou entered from gour recipe.The

oven will automaticallg convert it to

the convection cooking temperature.

[] Touch the CLEAR/OFFpad when

baking is finished.

_!_Use pan size recommended in the recipe.

Cookwore for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven,check

to see if your cookware leavesroom for air

circulation in the oven. If you are baking with

several pans, leave space between them.

Also,be sure the pans do not touch each

other or the walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers

that are recommended for use in regular

ovens can be used in convection ovens.

Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to

temperatures of 400°F can also be used,

when oven is below 400°F.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your

convection oven. However,metal pans heat

the fastest and are recommended for

convection baking.

_Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake

faster than shiny pans.

_;Glossor ceramic pans cook more slowly.

When baking cookies,you will get the best

results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead

of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken,

use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot

circulate well around food in a pan with

high sides.

Thisis normal.

Whenconvectionbaking with only

1.shelf,follow theshdf positions

recommendedin the Usingthe

Ovensection

Multi-Shelf Baking

The number of shelvesprovided depends on

your model.

Because heated air is circulated evenly

throughout the oven, foods can be baked

with excellent results using multiple shelves.

Hulti-shelf baking may increase cook times

slightly for some foods but the overall result

is time saved. Cookies,muffins, biscuitsand

other quick breads give very good results

with multi-shelf baking.

To cook food on more than one shelf in

convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE

MULTI.

When baking larger foods on 5 shelves,place

one shelf in the 2nd (A)position,one on the

Thetypeof margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you

decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with ahigher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat

content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat bg weight. Low fat spreads,on the

other hand, contain lessfat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor

of baked goods. For best results with Four old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70%

vegetable oil.

For heavilg-soiled grates, gou mag notice

some white ash on the grate. Wipe it off

with a damp cloth after the grate cools.

Ifwhite spots remain, remove them

with a soap-filled scouring pad and rinse

thoroughlg with a vinegar and water mixture.

Thesedeposits are usuallg a salt residue that

cannot be removed bg the clean cgcle.

Cleaning Grates--Dishwasher

The grates mag be cleaned in the dishwashe_

Remove ang burnt-on food particles that gou

can prior to placing the grates in the

dishwashe_ Place them on the lowest rack of

the dishwasher and run on a "heavg dutg"

cgcle.

Do not operate a burner for an extended

period of time without cookware on the grate.

The finish on the grate mag chip without

cookware to absorb the heat.

Although the grates are durable, theg will

graduallg lose their shine, regardlessof the

best care gou can give them. This is due

to their continual exposure to high

temperatures and abrasion bg the cookware.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (onsomemodels)

Protecting

STAINLESSSTEELhas a reputation for

withstanding tough abuse for years. This is a

key reason why it is so popular with the food

service industry.

However,stainlesssteel appliances can have

surface imperfections, discolorations or

blemishesthat consumers with a critical eye

notice and find unattractive in the home.

Thesediscolorations or blemishes can be

caused by something as simple as leaving

fingerprint smudges on the stainless steel

surface overnight.

For stainlesssteel appliances where

blemishes are prone to show on the surface,

we recommend APPLYINGACOATOFCERAHA

BRYTE®StainlessSteel Cleaning Polish&

Conditioner (purchased separately-follow

instructions).

Thiswill help you to maintain the brightness

and appearance of your stainlesssteel

appliance.

Cleaning

Do not use asteel wool pad; it will scratch

the surface.

r_!_In order to avoid any discolorations and/or

grease stains,we recommend cleaning

and removing any spills,spots and grease

from the range after use.

i_1It is important to use a soft cloth or paper

towel every time the range is cleaned to

avoid any scratches.

Readcarefully the instructions on the back

of the Brightener (includedwith your range)

for better results.

[] Apply Cerama Bryte ®Stainless Steel

Brightener (follow instructions).

[] Repeatsteps 2-4 as many times

as needed.

[] Put grates back in place.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable, but it is heovg.

Youmog need helpremoving and replacing

the doo_

To remove the door, open it a few inches

to the specialstop position that will hold the

door open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift

the door straight up and off the hinges.

NOTE: Becareful not to place hands between

the hinge and the oven door frame as the

hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges

are in the specialstop position. Positionthe

slots in the bottom of the door squarely over

the hinges.Then lower the door slowl9 and

evenly over both hinges at the same time. If

the hinges snap back against the oven frame,

pull them back out.

To clean the inside of the door:

The gasket is designed with a gap

at the bottom to allow for proper

air circulation

Do not rub or clean the door

gasket-it has an extremely low

resistance to abrasion

If gou notice the gasket becoming

worn, fraged or damaged in ang

wag or if it has become displaced

on the door, gou should have it

replaced

Do not allow excesswater to run into

any holes or slots in the doon

_'s!Becausethe area inside the gasket is

cleaned during the self clean cycle, gou do

not need to clean this by hand. Any soap

left on the liner causes additional stains

when the oven is heated.

;'s!The area outside the gasket can be

cleaned with a soap-filled plastic

scouring pad.

To clean the outside of the door:

i_ Usesoap and water to thoroughlg clean

the top, sidesand front of the oven doon

Rinsewell. You mag also use a glass

cleaner to clean the glass on the outside

of the door.

i_ Spillageof marinades, fruit juices, tomato

sauces and basting materials containing

acids may cause discoloration and should

be wiped up immediately. When the

surface is cool,clean and rinse.

%_Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing

powders or harsh abrasives on the

outside of the doon

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel

finish.To make cleaning easier,protect the

oven bottom from excessivespillovers by

placing a cookie sheet on the shelf below the

shelf you are cooking on. Thisis particularly

important when baking a fruit pie or other

foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit

fillings or other foods that are highly acidic

(suchas tomatoes, sauerkraut and sauces

with vinegar or lemonjuice) may cause

pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel

surface and should be wiped up immediately.

We don't recommend using aluminum foil on

the oven bottom. Itcan affect air flow if the

holes are blocked and it can concentrate heat

at the bottom of the oven, resulting in poor

baking performance.

To clean up spillovers,use soap and water, an

abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring pad.

Rinsewell to remove any soap before self-

cleaning.

Oven Shelves and Drawer Racks

The gray porcelain-coated shelvesmay be

cleaned in the oven during the self-clean

kWARNING!

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

All ranges can tip and injurg could

result.

To prevent accidental tipping of the range,

attach an approved Anti-Tip device to the

wall. (See Installing the Anti-Tip Device in

this section.) To check if the device is

installed and engaged properly, carefully

tip the range forward. The Anti-Tip device

should engage and prevent the range from

tipping over.

If gou pull the range out from the wall for

ang reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device

is engaged when gou push the range back

against the wall.

• For gour safet 9, never use gour range for warming or

heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not

designed to heat gour kitchen. Top burners should

not be operated without cookware on the grate. Such

abuse could result in fire and damage to gout range

and will void gout warrantg.

• Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids

in the vicinitg of this or ang other appliance.

Explosions or fires could result.

• Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored

in the oven can ignite.

• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable

materials accumulate in or near the range.

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it mag be subject to

strong drafts. Ang openings in the floor or wall behind

the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings

around the base of the range that supplg fresh air for

combustion and ventilation are not obstructed bg

carpeting or woodwork.

Your range, like mang other household items, is

heavg and can settle into soft floor coverings such as

cushioned vingl or carpeting. Use care when moving the

range on this tgpe of flooring. It is recommended that

the following simple and inexpensive instructions be

followed to protect gour floor.

The range should be installed on a sheet of plgwood

(or similar material). When the floor covering ends at the

front of the range, the area that the range will rest on

should be built up with plgwood to the same level or

higher than the floor covering.

This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning

or servicing. Also, make sure gour floor covering will

withstand 180°F.(Seethe Installation Safety Instructions

section.)

Make sure the wall coverings around gour range can

withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) bg the

range. ISee the Installation Safetg Instructions section.I

IMPORTANT!

Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the

burners are properlg seated and level.

Take the accessorg pack out of the oven and/or

drawer.

Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose

during shipping,

Installation Instructions

[] PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY

Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of S" of

water column on natural gas or, if designed for LP gas

{propane or butane), 10" of water column.

Hake sure gou are supplging gour range with the tgpe of

gas for which it is designed.

This range is convertible for use on natural or

propane gas. If gou decide to use this range on LPgas,

conversion must be made bg a qualified LPinstaller

before attempting to operate the range on that gas.

For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied

to the regulator must be between 5" and 13"

of water column.

For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 10"

and 13" of water column.

When checking for proper operation of the regulator,

the inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than the

operating (manifold} pressure as given above.

The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range

manifold must remain in the supplg line regardless of

whether natural or LPgas is being used.

A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the

range to the gas supplg line should have an I.D.of 1/2"

and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. In Canada,

flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors

no longer than 6 feet in length.

[] CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS

Shut offthe main gas supplg valve before

disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the

new hook-up has been completed. Don't forget to

relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you

turn the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,

the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal

appliance connector is recommended unless local codes

require a hard-piped connection.

Never use an old connector when installing a new range.

If the hard piping method is used, gou must carefullg

align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the

connection is made.

To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap

pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male {external}

pipe threads.

A. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line

in an easilg accessed location outside of the range.

Make sure evergone operating the range knows where

and how to shut off the gas supplg to the range.

B. Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT

internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup

wrench on the regulator fitting to avoid damage.

When installing the range from the front, remove the

90° elbow for easier installation.

C. Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the NPT

internal thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking

care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it from

turning.

D. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the

adapter on the range. Position range to permit

connection at the shut-off valve.

E.When all connections have been made, make sure

all range controls are in the off position and turn on the

main gas supplg valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all

joints and connections to check for leaks in the sgstem.

WARNING: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to

pressure test the gas supplg sgstem of the residence,

disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from

the gas supplg piping. When using test pressures of 1/2

psig or less to test the gas supplg sgstem, simplg isolate

the range from the gas supplg sgstem bg closing the

individual shut-off valve.

protected bg a 1S-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or time

delag fuse.

Extension Cord Cautions

Because of potential safetg hazards associated

with certain conditions, we stronglg recommend against

the use of an extension cord. However, if gou still elect to

use an extension cord, it is absolutelg necessarg that it

be a UL-listed, 3-wire grounding-tgpe appliance extension

cord and that the current carrging rating of the cord

in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than, the

circuit rating.

Grounding

IMPORTANT--(Please read carefullg)

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE

PROPERLY GROUNDED.

Preferred Method

Ensure proper ground

exists before use

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 possibilitg of electric shock hazard from

this appliance.

The customer should have the wall receptacle and

circuit checked bg a qualified electrician to make sure

the receptacle is properlg grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is

encountered, it is the personal responsibilitg and

obligation of the customer to have it replaced with

a properlg grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDERANY CIRCUMSTANCES,

CUT OR REMOVETHE THIRD (GROUND)PRONG FROM

THE POWERCORD.

Aword 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

automaticallg switch off power when a threshold leakage

level is detected. These devices must be manuallg reset

bg the consumer. The National Electrical Code requires

the use of GFCI'sin 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 GFCIbreaker

is passible.

[] ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (CONT.)

A. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will

be Disconnected Infrequentlg.

An adapter mag be used onlg on a 15-amp circuit.

Do not use an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. Where

local codes permit, a TEMPORARYCONNECTION

mag be made to a properlg grounded two-prong wall

receptacle bg the use of a ULdisted adapter, available

at most hardware stores. The larger slot in the adapter

must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle

to provide proper polaritg in the connection of the

power cord.

Temporarg Method

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter

ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover

screw does not ground the appliance unless

the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,

and the wall receptacle is grounded through

the house wiring. The customer should have

the circuit checked bg a qualified electrician to

make sure the receptacle is properlg grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter,

alwags hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done,

the adapter ground terminal is verg likelg to break with

B. Usage Situations where Appliance Power Cord will

be Disconnected Frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because

disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on

the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter

ground terminal. The customer should have the two-

prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-prong

(grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician

before using the appliance.
