GENERAL INFORMATION Burn hazard. To avoid risk of personal injury; the use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in a potential burn hazard. Combustible items may ignite, metallic items may become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is to be provided the risk can be reduced by installing a rangehood that projects horizontally a minimum 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of cabinets. This appliance should not be used for space heating. This information is based on safety considerations. 1. All openings in the wall behind the appliance and in the floor under the appliance shall be sealed. 2. Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors. 3. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. 4. Disconnect the electrical supply to the appliance before servicing. 5. When removing oven for cleaning and/or service; A. Shut off gas at main supply B. Disconnect AC power supply C. Disconnect gas line to the inlet pipe. D. Carefully remove the range by pulling outward. CAUTION: Range is heavy; use care in handling. 6. Electrical Requirement Listed on Specification sheet. Electrical installation should comply with national and local codes. Avoid any damage to oven vents. The vents need to be unobstructed and open to provide proper airflow for optimal oven performance. 7. Gas Manifold Pressure Natural gas 5.0" W.C.P. LP/Propane 10.0" W.C.P. 8. Ventilation It is recommended that the unit be set under a powered, vented exhaust hood of sufficient size and capacity. If the unit incorporates a char-grill feature, the unit MUST be used in conjunction with a powered, vented exhaust hood of sufficient size and capacity. 9. Flexible Connections: If this unit is to be installed with flexible couplings and/or quick disconnect fittings, the installer must use a flexible connector approved by national and local codes. 10. The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can result in potential hazards and/or injuries. When installing or removing the range for service, a rolling lift jack should be used. DO NOT push against any of the edges of the range in an attempt to slide it into or out of the installation. Although all metal parts are deburred during manufacturing, accidents could occur if the range should be moved suddenly or violently. Pushing or pulling a range (rather than using a lift jack) also increases the possibility of bending the leg spindles or the internal coupling connectors. WARNING!! ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS Electrical shock hazard. To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; verify your appliance has been properly grounded in accordance with local codes or in absence of codes, with the National Electrical Code (NEC). ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. This appliance is equipped with 3-prong plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded socket. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. Legs 1. Legs are packed in styrofoam top pack. 2. Legs should be installed near to where the appliance is to be used, as they are not secure for long transit. After unpacking the range, raise it about a foot to remove the bottom shipping skid. Keep the unit raised to permit the legs to be screwed into our couplings and lower it gently to keep any undue strain from the legs and internal mounting hardware. It is strongly recommended that a pallet or lift jack be used rather than tilting. NOTE: If legs are removed from range and range rests on a combustible surface, warranty will be void. 4 5
