IMPORTANT: GAS TYPE VERIFICATION
Before connecting the appliance to the gas supply line, ensure that its gas setting is appropriate.
The type of gas adjusted and shipped from the factory is indicated on the rating plate.
CAUTION: These ranges weigh up to 400 pounds. Some disassembly will reduce the weight considerably.
Due to the weight and size of the range and to reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the product:
TWO PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED FOR PROPER INSTALLATION.

1. Installation must be performed by a qualified or licensed contractor,
plumber or gas fitter qualified or licensed by the state, province or
region where this appliance is being installed.
2. Shut-o valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
3. Flexible gas connector must not be longer than 36” (914mm).
When connecting the unit to propane gas, make certain the propane gas tank

Ventilation Requirements
Vent Hood Combinations:
It is recommended that these ranges be installed in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood.
Due to the high heat capacity of this unit, particular attention should be paid to the hood and ductwork installation to assure it
meets local building codes.
WARNING: Air curtain or other overhead hoods, which operate by blowing a downward air flow on to a range,
shall not be used in conjunction with ranges with gas cooktop other than when the hood and range have been
designed, tested and certified by an independent test laboratory for use in combination with each other.
Clearances to horizontal surfaces above the range, measured to the cooking surface are below. Failure to
comply may result in fire hazard.
• Installations without a hood require 30” minimum to combustibles;
• A custom hood installation with exposed horizontal combustible surfaces must have an Auto-On feature;
• For other installations with a hood, refer to the hood installation instructions for specific hood clearances.
Cabinet Preparation
IMPORTANT NOTE: When installing against a combustible surface, a minimum riser is required for a the range,
follow all minimum clearances to combustible surfaces shown in the illustration on the previous pages. The
range is a free standing unit. If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets, the clearances shown in Figure 1,
are required. The same clearances apply to island installations, except for the overhead cabinets, which must
have a space wide enough to accept the flared island hood.
• Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.
• The gas and electrical supply should be within the zones shown in Figure 1 (see page 9).
• When using the island hood a minimum 12” (305 mm) rear clearance to a combustible surface is recommended (see
Figure 2 on page 10, Cabinet Clearances). Clearances from non-combustible materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1
scope. Clearances of less than 12” (305 mm) must be approved by the local codes and/or by the local authority having
jurisdiction.
• When the range is installed against a combustible side wall a minimum clearance of 8” (203mm) is needed from the side
of the range to the wall.
• Always keep appliance area clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. The
maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed on either side of the hood is 13” (330mm).
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the unit.
There is a 48” (1220 mm) minimum clearance required between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an
unprotected cabinet.

Electrical Supply
The cord supplied with the gas ranges having an electric griddle requires a NEMA 5-15 receptacle.
When the power supply cord is connected to the mating receptacle, the combined plug/receptacle connection should
protrude no more than 1,55” (39,4 mm) from the rear wall.
This product must be properly grounded.
NOTE: Plug styles may vary.

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface
units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets. All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be
installed must be sealed.
