Type of Gas
Natural gas:
■
A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is
required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this range be provided.
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 equipped with a power supply cord having a
3 prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
■
This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See “Gas
Conversions” section. The model/serial rating plate located
on the oven frame behind the left side of the broiler door 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.
Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits,
but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that
the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded.
LP gas conversion:
This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that
will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly
polarized.
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.
■
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range.
NOTE: The metal chassis of the range must be grounded in
order for the control panel to work. If the metal chassis of the
range is not grounded, no keypads will operate. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
metal chassis of the range is grounded.
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. 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.
NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas
must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape.

Flexible metal appliance connector:
Gas Pressure Regulator
■
If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4-5 ft
(122-152.4 cm) long, ½" (1.3 cm) or ¾" (1.9 cm) I.D.,
flexible metal appliance connector may be used for
connecting range to the gas supply line.
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be
used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for
proper operation:
Natural gas:
Minimum pressure: 5" WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" WCP
LP gas:
■
■
A ½" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection
to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance
pressure regulator.
Minimum pressure: 11" WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" WCP
Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when
moving the range.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
pressure.
Rigid pipe connection:
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe
fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. The rigid
pipe must be level with the range connection. All strains must
be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be
level and in line.
Burner Input Requirements
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1"
water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on
the model/serial rating plate.
■
Must include a shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff
valve. This valve should be located in the same room but
external to the range opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It
should be in a location that allows ease of opening and
closing. Do not block access to shutoff valve. The valve is for
turning on or shutting off gas to the range.
Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)
The range 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Electronic Ignition System
Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
“LITE” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
This sparking continues until the control knob is turned to the
desired setting.
When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, a hot
surface igniter heats to a bright orange and ignites the gas. No
sparking occurs. The glow bar remains on while the burner
operates.
2. Slowly attempt to tilt the range forward.
If you encounter immediate resistance, the range foot is
engaged in the anti-tip bracket.
3. If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor
without resistance, stop tilting the range and lower it gently
back to the floor. The range foot is not engaged in the anti-tip
