Gas supply
requirements
Observe all governing codes and
ordinances.
Fire Hazard
l
Range must be connected to a
regulated gas supply.
l
L.P.gas supply must Not
exceed a pressure of 14” water
column. This must be checked by
a qualified technician before
installing this range.
l
Do Not use an open flame to
test for leaks from gas
connections.
l
New, A.G.A. design-certified
flexible gas line should be used
when local codes permit.
Failure to follow these instructions
could result in a fire, explosion or
personal injury.
A.
This installation must conform with local
codes and ordinances. In the absence
of local codes, installations must
conform with American National
Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1-latest edition‘*.
B
n
Input ratings shown on the serial/rating
plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet.
For elevations above 2,000 feet, ratings
are reduced at a rate of 4% for each
1,000 feet above sea level.
C
This r&ge isequipped for use with
NATURALgas. It isdesign-certified by
A.G.4. for NATURALand L.P.gases with
appropriate conversion, The
serial/rating plate, located under the
maintop, has information on the type of
gas that can be used. If this information
does not agree with the type of gas
available, check with the local gas
supplier. See Panel Efor L.P. gas
conversion instructions.
D.
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4” rigid
pipe to the range location. A smaller
size pipe on long runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint
compounds made for use with L.P.gas
must be used. With L.P.gas, piping or
tubing size can be l/2” minimum. L.P.
gas suppliers usually determine the size
and materials used on the system.
t n
If local codes permit, a new, A.G.A.
design-certified, 4-5 foot long, l/2” or 3/4”
I.D., flexible metal appliance connector is
recommended for connecting this range
to the gas supply line. Do Not kink or
damage the flexible tubing when moving
the range. A l/2” male pipe thread is
needed for connection to pressure
regulator female pipe threads.
F.
The supply line shall be equipped with
an approved shutoff valve. This valve
should be located in the same room as
the range and should be in a location
that allows ease of opening and
closing. Do Not block access to shutoff
valve.
G
If rigid’pipe isused as a gas
supply line, a combination of
pipe fittings must be used to
obtain an in-line connection to the
range. All strains must be removed
from the supply and fuel lines so
range will be level and in line.
H.
The inlet pressure to the regulator should
be as follows for both operation and
checking regulator setting:
NATURALGAS:
Set pressure 6 inches
Maximum inlet pressure 14 inches
L.P.GAS:
Set pressure 11 inches
Maximum inlet pressure 14 inches
I wLine pressure testing:
Testing above l/2 lb psi (gauge)
The range and its individual shutoff
valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to
or greater than l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at l/2 lb psi (gauge)
The range must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to
or lessthan l/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Electrical
requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
l
Electrical ground is required on
this appliance.
l
If cold water pipe is interrupted
by plastic, non-metallic gaskets
or other insulating materials, Do
Not use for grounding.
l
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
l
Do Not modify the power supply
cord plug. If it does not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified
electrician.
l
Do Not have a fuse in the
neutral or grounding circuit. A
fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit could result in electrical
shock.
l
Do Not use an extension cord
with this appliance.
l
Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as
to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious injury or
death.
If codes permit and a separate
grounding wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the
grounding path is adequate.
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15ampere,
fused electrical supply isrequired. A
time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. It isrecommended that
a separate circuit serving only this
appliance be provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate
within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary.
In addition to checking that the outlet
provides 120-volt power and iscorrectly
grounded, the outlet must be checked
by a qualified electrician to see if it is
wired with correct polarity.
A wiring diagram is included in the
literature package. The wiring diagram
isalso located on the back of the
range.
Recommended
grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance
must be grounded. Thisappliance is
manufactured with a power supply
cord having a 3-prong grounding plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating, 3-
prong, grounding-type, wall
receptacle, grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition*, and all
local codes and ordinances. (See
Figure 1.) If a mating wall receptacle is
not available, it isthe personal
responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have a properly grounded,
3-prong, wall receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
