ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (cont.)
When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter with
one hand. If this is not done, the adapter
ground terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use. Should this happen,
DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper
ground has again been established.
Usage Situations where Appliance Power
Cord will be Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these
situations because disconnecting of the
power cord places undue strain on the
adapter and leads to eventual failure
of the adapter ground terminal. The
customer should have the 2-prong wall
receptacle replaced with a three-prong
(grounding) receptacle by a qualified
electrician before using the appliance.
The installation of appliances designed
for mobile home installation must
conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title
24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal
Standard for Mobile Home Construction
and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or,
when such standard is not applicable,
the Standard for Manufactured Home
Installations, latest edition (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups),
ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with
local codes. In Canada, mobile home
installation must be in accordance with
the current CAN/CSA Z240/MH Mobile
Home Installation Code.
Electric Disconnect

back.

LIGHT THE PILOTS
(For models equipped with standing
pilots. If the range is an electric ignition
model, the burners are ignited by electric
ignition which eliminates the need for
standing pilot lights.)
The range should be installed in its
permanent position before any pilots
are lit or adjusted.
Light the Surface Burner Pilots
1. Raise the cooktop.
2. Light both pilots with a match.
3. To avoid pilot outage, use caution when
closing cooktop after lighting pilots.
NOTE: Do not leave standing pilot lit in
a newly constructed or remodeled home
or apartment that will be unoccupied for
more than a month.
Each pilot flame was adjusted at the
factory to be approximately 5/16 tall.
A tinge of yellow appearing at the upper
tip is normal. If you find pilot adjustment
is necessary, follow instructions in Step B.
