CONNECTING THE RANGE Electric Supply The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada the range must be installed in accordance with the current CSA Standard C22.1 -- Canadian Electrical Code Part 1. Electrical Supply Connection The range requires 120 volts, 60 cycle alternating current from a grounded outlet with a 15 amp circuit breaker. See serial plate for rating, located on lower surface of front frame. User may experience occasional circuit tripping if Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet or breaker is in use. Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Checking Pressure Of House Piping System 1. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column). Electrical Grounding Instructions This appliance is equipped with a (three-prong) grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE SERVICING THE APPLIANCE. Gas Supply Installation of this range must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition. In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. A "T" handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the gas supply line to this appliance. A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed a length of three (3) feet / 36 inches. In Canada the range must be installed in accordance with the current CGA Standard CAN/CGA--B149 -- Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local codes. 2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column). Gas Supply Connection (See figure 3) A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN OR GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given in section h. NATURAL GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A NATURAL GAS SERVICE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH (P.S.I.). LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.)/PROPANE GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A L.P. GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 P.S.I.). INLET PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 0.5 P.S.I. CAN DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE PRESSURE REGULATOR AND OTHER GAS COMPONENTS IN THIS APPLIANCE AND CAN RESULT IN A GAS LEAK. NOTE: This range is shipped from the factory set for Natural Gas at 4″ water column pressure. Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1″ water column pressure above manifold pressure shown on serial plate. If conversion to LP Gas is required, convert appliance before installation. --5--
