30" DUAL FUEL SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Models with an Electric Oven and a Gas Cooktop) 5 Cabinet Construction To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, do not have cabinet storage space above the range. If there is cabinet storage space above range, reduce risk by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet. Countertop Preparation • The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout edge of your countertop. • If you have a square finish (flat) countertop, no countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay directly on edge of countertop. • Formed front-edged countertops must have molded edge shaved flat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from each front corner of opening (Figure 7). • Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9 cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened (Figure 7). Min. Cutout Width ¾" (1.9 cm) ¾" (1.9 cm) 31½" (81 cm) Formed or tile countertop trimmed ¾" (1.9 cm) back at front corners of countertop Figure 7 opening. • If the existing cutout width is greater than 30 1/16" (76,4 cm), reduce the ¾" (1.9 cm) dimension. • Countertop must be level. Place a level on the countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If the countertop is not level, the range will not be level. The oven must be level for satisfactory baking results. Cooktop sides of range fit over edges of countertop opening. pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm) water column (1.25 kPa) Natural gas. For LP/Propane gas, the regulator must be set for 10"(25,4 cm) water column (2.5 kPa) manifold pressure; the inlet pressure must be at least 11"(27,9 cm) water column (2.75 kPa). The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve (see Figure 10). 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 the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line. The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the regulator may be connected by rigid piping or by A.G.A./ C.G.A.-approved flexible metallic union-connected piping where local codes permit use. The gas supply piping can be through the back wall (Figure 8, zone 1) or through the floor (Figure 8, zone 2): Zone 1 - Through the Back Wall (7" X 6") - The best place to have your gas line in is between 1" (2.5 cm) and 8" (20.3cm) from the floor and within 3" (7.6 cm) from the center line. Zone 2 - Through the Floor (~2" X 24") - The gas line can also come through the floor within 12" (30.5 cm) from the center line against the back wall. 6 Gas Supply - Installation When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed to operate on 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure regulator is connected to the range manifold and MUST be connected in series with the gas supply line. To access the regulator, remove the drawer. For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56 cm) of water column pressure (3.5 kPa). The inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least 1" (.25 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure; the inlet Figure 8 Connection to Pressure Regulator The regulator is already installed on the appliance. Do not make the connection too tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion. 8
