Electrical Requirements  
Gas Supply Requirements  
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is  
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that  
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local  
codes and that the ground path is adequate.  
WARNING  
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the  
range is properly grounded.  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are  
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,  
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.  
Explosion Hazard  
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.  
Install a shut-off valve.  
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:  
National Fire Protection Association  
One Batterymarch Park  
Quincy, MA 02269  
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.  
Electrical Connection  
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of  
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions  
provided for it here.  
Examples of a qualified person include:  
licensed heating personnel,  
authorized gas company personnel, and  
authorized service personnel.  
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage  
and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating  
plate. (The model/serial number rating plate is located on the  
right vertical surface of the oven door frame.)  
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.  
Range must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent  
wiring system.  
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.  
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz., AC  
only electrical supply is required on a separate, 30-amp  
circuit, fused on both sides of the line.  
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/NFPA 54 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 -  
latest edition.  
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. The  
fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the range  
specified on the model/serial rating plate located on the right  
vertical surface of the oven door frame. Refer to the figure in  
the “Product Dimensions” section of “Location  
Requirements” section.  
IMPORTANT: Range cooktop must be connected to a regulated  
gas supply.  
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range cooktop must be  
conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.  
The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect  
(or circuit breaker box) through flexible, or nonmetallic  
sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. The flexible, cable  
extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be  
connected directly to the junction box. See “Make Electrical  
Connection.”  
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.  
Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible  
between the junction box and the range so that the range can  
be moved if servicing is ever necessary. Do not cut the  
conduit.  
This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. The model/  
serial rating plate located on the right vertical surface of the  
oven door frame 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.  
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be  
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range  
and at the junction box).  
LP Gas conversion:  
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.  
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of  
the range (30 amps).  
No attempt shall be made to convert the range cooktop from the  
gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a  
different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. To  
convert to LP gas, use the LP gas conversion kit provided with  
your range. The parts for this kit are in the literature package  
supplied with the range.  
If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:  
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail  
leads.  
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of  
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools  
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.  
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended  
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with  
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

Gas Supply Line  
Gas Pressure Regulator  
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.  
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: 6" (15.2 cm) WCP  
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP  
LP Gas:  
Flexible metal appliance connector:  
Minimum pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP  
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP  
If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified,  
4 - 5 ft (122 - 152.4 cm) long, ⁵⁄₈" (1.6 cm) or  
¾" (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal appliance connector may  
be used for connecting range to the gas supply line.  
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet  
pressure.  
Burner Input Rating - Altitude  
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for  
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).  
A ½" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection  
to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the range  
pressure regulator.  
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).  
Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when  
moving the range.  
Gas Supply Pressure Testing  
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.  
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).  
Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower  
The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by  
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure  
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to  
or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).  
Must include a manual 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. 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.
