Clearance Dimensions Note: Door handle of oven should be 36" (91.4 cm) above the floor. Note: The grounded electrical socket should be placed above or below cutout(s). CAUTION To prevent possible damage to cabinets and cabinet finishes, use only moisture resistant materials and finishes that will withstand temperature up to 190°F (88°C). When cabinets are covered with laminates, an appropriate heat-resistant adhesive must be used. Consult your manufacturer for proper specifications. CAUTION 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. Electrical & Gas Requirements Electrical Requirements Check your national and local codes regarding this unit. These ovens require 3-wire, 120 VAC/60 Hz. See "Connecting Gas & Electrical" section for grounding instructions. WARNING Electrical shock hazard. To avoid the risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; verify electrical power is turned off at the breaker box and gas supply is turned off until the oven is installed and ready to operate, installation by an authorized installer only. Gas Connection The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the appliance. This oven uses a 1/2" (1.3 cm) ID NPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all pipe joints must be resistive to LP gas. These ovens are designed specifically for natural gas or liquid propane (LP) gas. It is shipped from the factory adjusted for use with natural or propane (LP) gas. Before beginning installation verify that the model is compatible with the intended gas supply. Manual shut-off valve: This installer-supplied valve must be installed in the gas service line before the appliance in the gas stream and in a location where it can be reached quickly in the event of an emergency. In Massachusetts: A "T" handle type manual valve must be installed in the gas supply line to the appliance. IMPORTANT: Any conversion required must be performed by your dealer or a qualified licensed plumber or gas service company. Please provide the service person with this manual before work begins. 12 Electrical & Gas Requirements (cont.) Pressure Regulator: • All heavy-duty, commercial type cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for safe and efficient operation, since service pressure may fluctuate with local demand. External regulators are not required on this oven since a regulator is built into each unit at the factory. Under no condition bypass this built-in regulator. • Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer, natural gas requires 5.0" W.C.P. and LP gas requires 10.0" W.C.P. Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1" W.C.P. higher than the manifold pressure in order to check the regulator. The regulator used on these ovens can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2" PSI (14.0" W.C.P.). If the line pressure is in excess of 1/2" PSI (14.0" W.C.P.), a step down regulator will be required. • The appliance must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system. Flexible Connections: If the unit is to be installed with flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect fittings, the installer must use a heavy-duty AGA design-certified flexible connector of at least 1/2" (1.3 cm) ID NPT (with suitable strain reliefs) in compliance with ANSI Z21.41 and Z21.69. Rigid Connections: 30"W. • Incoming gas from the service supply is brought from an intake pipe (not supplied) to the back center of the unit through the shut-off valve (not supplied) to the regulator. (See "Cutout Dimensions" section for gas inlet location.) 36"W. • Incoming gas is brought from an intake pipe (not supplied) to the lower right center of the unit to the pressure regulator. The only connection necessary is from the service supply, through the shut-off valve (not supplied) to this intake pipe (not supplied) to the regulator. (See "Cutout Dimensions" section for gas inlet location.) In Canada: CAN 1-6, 10-88 metal connectors for gas appliances and CAN 1-6.9 M79 quick disconnect devices for use with gas fuel. In Massachusetts: This appliance must be installed with a 36" (3-foot) long flexible gas connector. CAUTION Before placing the oven into operation, always check for gas leaks with a soapy water solution or other acceptable method. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. 13
