Disconnect electrical supply cord from wall receptacle before servicing cooktop. 7 Moving the Appliance for Servicing and Cleaning Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service drawer (warmer drawer on some models) and open the oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit. Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical power and gas to the flame size. 8 Range Installation Important Note: Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the range, but is an added convenience.
