This range has been design-certtiled by the
American Gas Association according to ANSI 221.1,
latest edition and Canadian Gas Association
according to
CAN/CGA-l.l
latest edition. As with
any appliance using gas and generating heat,
there are certain safety precautions you should
follow. You will find these precautions in the
Important Safety Instructions in the front of this
book. Read them carefully.
● Have your range installed by a qualtiled
installer or service technician.
. Your range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code
(ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition).
In Canada, electrical grounding must be in
accordance with the current
CSA
C22.1
Canadian
Electrical Code Part 1 and/or local codes. See
Electrical Connections in this section.
. Before installing your range on linoleum or
any other synthetic floor covering, make sure
the floor covering can withstand
1800F without
shrinking, warping or discoloring. Do not install
the range over carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4”
thick plywood or similar insulator is placed
between the range and carpeting.
● Make sure the wall coverings around the
range can withstand heat generated by the
range up to
200°E
● Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To
reduce the hazard caused by reaching over the
open flames of operating burners, install a
ventilation hood over the range that projects
forward at least 5“ beyond the front of the cabinets.
● The ventilating hood must be constructed of
sheet metal not less than 0.0122” thick. Install
above the
cooktop with a clearance of not less
than 1/4” between the hood and the underside
of the combustible material or metal cabinet. The
hood must beat least as wide as the
appfiance and
centered over the appliance. Clearance between
the cooking surface

the plane of the cooking surface to the bottom
of adjacent overhead cabinets extending closer
than 1“ to the plane of the range sides must not
be less than 18”. (See Dimensions and
Clearances illustration in this section.)
● Caution: Items of interest to children should
not be stored in cabinets above a range or on the
backsplash of a

N1
ranges can tip and injury
i.:
could result. To prevent
accidental tipping of the range,
attach an approved Anti-Tip
device to the wall. (See
Installing the Anti-Tip Device
@
in this section.) To check if
i.,
the device is installed and
engaged properly, carefully
tip the range forward. The
Anti-Tip device should engage
and prevent the range from
tipping over.
If you pull the range out from the wall for any
reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device is engaged
when you push the range back against the wall.
● For your safety, never use your range for warming
or heating the room. Your oven and range top are
not designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners
should not be operated without cookware on the
grate. Such abuse could result in fire and damage
to your range and will void your warranty.
. Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Explosions or fires could result.
● Do not use oven for a storage area. Items
stored in the oven can ignite.
● Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
