Electrical Requirements - Canada Only WARNING Gas Supply Requirements WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Electrically ground range. Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes. Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate and in conformance with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances. A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from: Canadian Standards Association 178 Rexdale Blvd. Toronto, ON M9W 1R3 CANADA. ■ Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the range is properly grounded. Range Rating* 120/240 Volts 8.8 - 16.5 KW 16.6 - 22.5 KW 120/208 Volts 7.8 - 12.5 KW 12.6 - 18.5 KW Specified Rating of Power Supply Cord Kit and Circuit Protection Amps 40 or 50** 50 *The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load listed on the model/serial rating plate. **If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.93 mm) diameter connection opening. ■ A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. ■ This range is equipped with a CSA International Certified Power Cord intended to be plugged into a standard 14-50R wall receptacle. Be sure the wall receptacle is within reach of range's final location. ■ Do not use an extension cord. Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections. If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column. Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. Observe all governing codes and ordinances. IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 - latest edition. IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range must be conducted according to the manufacturers instructions. Type of Gas Natural gas: This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas. ■ This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See "Gas Conversions" section. The model/serial rating plate located on the right side oven door trim has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier. LP gas conversion: Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician. No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See "Gas Conversions" section. Gas Supply Line ■ Provide a gas supply line of ¾" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing size can be ½" (1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system. 8
