WARNING These adjustments must be made by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion. Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other service should be referred to a qualified technician. This appliance must be properly grounded. Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet that is only used for this appliance. Do not remove the grounding (third) prong from the plug. Firmly plug the power cord into the wall outlet. If you are not sure your electrical outlet is grounded, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have a properly grounded, threeprong outlet installed in accordance with local and national codes. Do not use a damaged power plug or loose wall outlet. Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. In addition, do not use an adapter or otherwise defeat the grounding plug. If you do not have a proper outlet or have any doubt, consult a licensed electrician. Locate the range out of kitchen traffic paths and drafty locations to prevent poor air circulation. This appliance should be positioned in such a way that the power plug is accessible. Do not install in an area exposed to dripping water or outside weather conditions. Remove all packaging materials from the range before operating it. These materials can ignite, causing smoke and/or fire damage. Install this appliance on a level and hard floor that can support its weight. Synthetic flooring, like linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C) temperatures without shrinking, warping, or discoloring. Never install the range directly over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of 0.25-inch plywood or similar insulator is placed between the range and carpeting. Install_NX58R4311SS_AA_DG68-01153A-02_EN+MES+CFR.indb 9 Do not block or cover the vents (air openings). The vents allow for air circulation that is necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Blocking or covering the vents may cause incorrect combustion which could result in gas leaks and fire. Air openings are located behind the range, under the oven control panel, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and under the lower warming or storage drawer. Large scratches or impacts on door glass can cause the glass to break or shatter. Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat, up to 200 °F (93 °C), generated by the range. Avoid placing cabinets above the range. This reduces the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames of operating burners. If cabinets are placed above the range, allow a minimum clearance of 40 in (102 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets. Install a ventilation hood or an externally vented Over The Range Microwave Oven over the range cooktop that is as wide as the range, centered over the range, and projects forward beyond the front of the cabinets. See page 16 in this manual. Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly seated and level. Remove any accessories from the oven and/or lower drawer. Check to make sure no range parts have come loose during shipping. Seal any openings in the wall behind the appliance and in the floor under the appliance after the gas supply line is installed.
