Cabinet dimensions/requirements
Check location where range will be installed. The range
should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of
the sides and rear of range.
IMPORTANT: Some cabinet and building materials are not
designed to withstand the heat produced by the oven for
baking and self-cleaning. Check with your builder or cabinet
supplier to make sure that the materials used will not
discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.
— Do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or
any other appliance.

• To contact a qualified electrical installer.
The floor-mounted anti-tip bracket MUST be installed. To
install the anti-tip bracket supplied, see Pages 4-5 and the
anti-tip bracket template/instruction sheet.

Cabinet opening dimensions shown must be
used. Given dimensions are minimum
clearances.
When installing a cooktop under existing
cabinets and the installation does not meet the
minimum cabinet clearances, install a range
hood above the cooktop to avoid burn hazards.
Proper installation is your responsibility. A
qualified technician must install this range. Make
sure you have everything necessary for correct
installation. It is the installer’s responsibility to
comply with installation clearances specified on
the gas information label. The gas information
label and model/serial rating plate are located on

A wiring diagram is included on the back of
the range.
• L.P. gas-resistant pipe-joint compound
• A.G.A. design-certified flexible metal appliance connector
(4-5 feet) or rigid gas supply line as needed
See “Cabinet dimensions/requirements,” Page 2,
for recommended location of electrical outlet.
• Insulated pad or 1/4" plywood if range is installed

Gas supply requirements
Gas supply line: Provide a gas supply line of 3/4"
manual shutoff valve
“open” position
rigid pipe to the range location. With L.P. gas,
piping or tubing size can be 1/2" minimum. A
smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. Usually, L.P. gas
suppliers determine the size and materials used
in the system.
WARNING
to range
gas supply
Pipe-joint compounds made for use with L.P. gas
Explosion Hazard
Shutoff valve: The supply line must be equipped
with a manual 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. The valve is for turning on
or shutting off gas to the range. Do Not block
access to shutoff valve.
Pressure regulator: The gas pressure regulator
supplied with this range must be used. The inlet
pressure to the regulator should be as follows
for proper operation:
NATURAL GAS:
Minimum pressure: 5 inches WCP
Maximum pressure: 14 inches WCP
L.P. GAS:
Minimum pressure: 11 inches WCP
Maximum pressure: 14 inches WCP
must be used on pipe threads only.
Use a new AGA approved gas supply
line.
Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
Flexible metal appliance connector: If local codes
permit, a new A.G.A. design-certified,
1/2" or 3/4" I.D., flexible metal appliance
connector is recommended for connecting range
to the gas supply line. A 1/2" male pipe thread
nipple is needed for connection to pressure
regulator female pipe threads. Do Not kink or
damage the flexible metal tubing when moving
the range.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
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**.
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating
plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For
assistance when installing the range at higher
elevations, contact your local service company.
Type of gas: This range is design-certified by the
American Gas Association (A.G.A.) for use with
Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use
with L. P. gas. This range is factory set for use
with Natural gas. Gas conversion instructions
are provided on pages 7-8. The model/serial
rating plate located on the frame behind the
storage drawer or broiler drawer has information
on the type of gas that can be used. If the type
of gas listed does not agree with the type of gas
available, check with the local gas supplier.
Conversion must be done by a qualified service
technician.
Contact your local gas supplier if you are not
sure about the inlet pressure.
Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi gauge
(14" WCP) — The range and its individual
manual shutoff valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures
greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Rigid pipe connection: Requires a
combination of pipe fittings 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.
Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi gauge
(14" WCP) or lower — The range must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Anti-tip bracket installation
Contact a qualified floor covering installer for
the best procedure for drilling mounting
holes through your type floor covering.
WARNING
4.Use the anti-tip bracket
template/instruction sheet to install the
anti-tip bracket.
Anti-tip bracket must be
anchored securely to the sub
floor.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be
killed.
Depending on the
thickness of your
flooring, longer
screws may be
needed to anchor
the bracket
to the sub floor.
Longer screws are
available from your
local hardware store.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range
foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the
range is moved.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death or serious burns to
children and adults.

To avoid damaging the hot surface ignitor,
Do Not insert any object into the openings of
the protective shield that surrounds the ignitor
or clean that area.
Electronic ignition system
Check operation of oven burner
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic
ignitors in place of standing pilots. When a
cooktop control knob is turned to the “LIGHT”
position, the system creates a spark to light the
burner. This sparking continues until the
control knob is turned to the desired setting.
17.Open broiler drawer. Follow the
instructions for your type of oven controls.
18.Check the oven burner for
proper flame. The flame should be
1/2" long, with inner cone of bluish-
green, and outer mantle of dark blue,
and should be clean and soft in
character. No yellow tips, blowing or
lifting of flame should occur. If burner does not
light, check that the regulator shutoff valve is in
the “on” position (see Step 11).
If your oven has this type of electronic
control pads (with or without timer):
When the oven control is turned to the desired
setting, a hot surface ignitor heats to a bright
orange and ignites the gas. No sparking occurs
and the glow bar remains on while the burner
operates.
