Electrical Requirements

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
IMPORTANT: The range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence
of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that
will not operate properly if plugged into an outlet that is not
properly polarized.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine
that the ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
A 120-volt, 60 Hz., AC-only, 15-amp fused, grounded, and
■
polarized electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse
or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this range be provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage
■
limits, but proper grounding and polarity are necessary.
Check that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is
correctly grounded.
This gas range is not required to be plugged into a GFCI
■
(Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet. It is recommended
that you not plug an electric spark ignition gas range or
any other major appliance into a GFCI wall outlet as it
may cause the GFCI to trip during normal cycling.
Performance of this range will not be affected if operated
■
on a GFCI-protected circuit. However, occasional nuisance
tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible due to the normal
operating nature of electronic gas ranges.
The tech sheet and wiring diagram are located on the back
■
of the range in a plastic bag.
NOTE: The metal chassis of the range must be grounded
in order for the control panel to work. If the metal chassis
of the range is not grounded, no keypads will operate.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as
to whether the metal chassis of the range is grounded.

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.
If connected to propane, 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.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes,
installation must conform with American National Standard,
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or
CAN/CGA B149 - latest edition.
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range must be conducted
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Type of Gas
Natural Gas:
This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See the "Gas
Conversions" section. The model/serial/rating plate located on
the oven frame behind the top left-hand side of the oven door
has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the
types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available,
check with the local gas supplier.
Propane Conversion:
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
the "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. With propane,
piping or tubing size can be 1/2" (1.3 cm) minimum.
Usually, propane suppliers determine the size and materials
used in the system.
NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of
propane must be used. Do not use TEFLON
