Electrical requirements  
In the State of Massachusetts, the  
following installation instructions  
apply:  
• Installations and repairs must be  
performed by a qualified or  
licensed contractor, plumber, or  
gasfitter qualified or licensed by  
the State of Massachusetts.  
For personal safety, this range is  
WARNING  
equipped with a power supply cord  
having a 3 prong ground plug.To  
minimize possible shock hazard, the cord  
must be plugged into a mating 3 prong,  
ground-type outlet, grounded in  
accordance with the National Electrical  
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*  
and all local codes and ordinances.  
• If using a ball valve, it shall be a  
T-handle type.  
• A flexible gas connector, when  
used, must not exceed 3 feet.  
Electrical Shock Hazard  
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.  
Do not remove ground prong.  
Do not use an adapter.  
If a mating outlet is not available, it is the  
personal responsibility and obligation of  
the customer to have a properly polarized  
and grounded, 3 prong outlet installed by  
a qualified electrician.  
Observe all governing codes and  
ordinances.  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Failure to follow these instructions can  
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.  
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**.

Do not ground to a gas pipe.  
Check with a qualified electrician if you  
are not sure range is properly grounded.  
Type of gas: This range is design-certified  
by CSA International for use with L.P. gas  
or, after proper conversion, for use with  
Natural gas.This range is factory set for  
use with L.P. gas. Gas conversion  
instructions are provided on pages 8–9.  
The model/serial rating plate located on  
the frame behind the 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.  
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 10 amp, fused  
electrical supply is required. A time-delay  
fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It  
is recommended that a separate circuit  
serving only this appliance be provided.  
Gas supply  
requirements  
Electronic ignition systems operate within  
wide voltage limits, but proper grounding  
and polarity are necessary. In addition to  
checking that the outlet is correctly  
grounded, the outlet must be checked by  
a qualified electrician to see if it is wired  
with correct polarity.  
WARNING  
Conversion must be done by a qualified  
service technician.  
IMPORTANT: This range is equipped with  
an electronic ignition system that will not  
operate if plugged into an outlet that is  
not properly polarized.  
Gas supply line: Provide a gas supply line  
of 3/4" 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.  
Explosion Hazard  
Use a new AGA or CSA approved gas  
supply line.  
A wiring diagram is included on the back  
of the range.  
Install a shutoff valve.  
See “Cutout dimensions/requirements”  
section for recommended location of  
electrical outlet.  
Securely tighten all gas connections.  
If connected to LP, have a qualified  
person make sure gas pressure does  
not exceed 14" water column.  
Pipe-joint compounds made for use  
with L.P. gas must be used on pipe  
threads only.  
Examples of a qualified person  
include:  
licensed heating personnel,  
authorized gas company  
personnel, and  
Copies of the standards listed may be  
obtained from:  
authorized service personnel.

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).  
WARNING  
recommended for connecting range to  
the gas supply line. A 1/2" male pipe  
thread nipple is needed for connection to  
pressure regulator connection fitting. Do  
not kink or damage the flexible metal  
tubing when moving the range.  
Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi gauge  
(3.5 kPa) [14" (35.6 cm) 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).  
Tip Over Hazard  
A child or adult can tip the range and  
be killed.  
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear  
range foot.  
Now start…  
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the  
range is moved.  
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.  
Failure to follow these instructions can  
result in death or serious burns to  
children and adults.  
WARNING  
Excessive Weight Hazard  
Use two or more people to move and  
install range.  
Contact a qualified floor covering installer  
for the best procedure for drilling  
mounting holes through your type floor  
covering.  
Failure to do so can result in back or  
other injury.

install the anti-tip bracket.  
1.  
Do not use oven door handle to lift  
or move the range.  
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.  
Anti-tip bracket must be  
anchored securely to  
the sub floor.
