Do not make any attempt to oper-
ate the electric ignition oven during an electri-
cal power failure. Resumption of electric power
when OVEN TEMP and OVEN SET controls are in
any position other than OFF will result in automatic
ignition of the oven or broiler burner.
In case of a power outage, you can light the sur-
face burners on your range with a match. Hold a
lighted match to the burner, then slowly turn the
knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution
when lighting burners this way.
Surface burner in use when electrical power failure
occurs will continue to operate normally.
The oven burner and broil burner on your range
are lighted by electrical ignition. The oven and
broiler cannot be operated in the event of a
power failure.
1. Before Installing the Range
Remove shipping material
Remove all tape, shipping and packaging materials
and the oven rack packaging. Lift up cooktop and
remove the two shipping screws from the cooktop
burners (see figure 2).

2. Provide an Adequate Gas Supply

This range is designed to operate on natural gas at
4" of manifold pressure or on LP gas at 10" of
manifold pressure. It is shipped from the factory
set for natural gas. If it is to be used with LP gas,
adjustments must be made.
A convertible pressure regulator is connected in se-
ries with the manifold of the range and must remain
in series with the supply line regardless of whether
natural or LP gas is being used.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pres-
sure to the regulator must be no more than 14" of
water column (W.C.) pressure.
Screws
For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must
be at least 1" water column pressure greater than the
regulator manifold outlet setting. If the regulator is
set for 4" of manifold pressure, the inlet pressure
must be at least 5". If the regulator is set for 10", the
inlet pressure must be at least 11".
The gas supply line into the range should be ½" or
¾" I.D. flexible metal appliance connector five feet
in length.

3. Seal the Openings

Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and
in the floor under the range when hookups are com-
pleted.
4. Connect the Range to Gas
Refer to Figures 4 to 7 for recommended connec-
tions.
A. Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas line in
an easily accessible location outside of the range.
Be sure you know how and where to shut-off the
gas supply to the range.
B. Install ½" flare union adaptor supplied with the
connector, to the ½" NPT internal thread on pres-
sure regulator.

C. Because solid pipe restricts moving the range we
recommended use of A.G.A. design certified flex-
ible metal appliance connector. Connect flexible
appliance to flare union.
D. Move range into approximate position and con-
nect flexible appliance connector to gas supply
line with proper flare union adaptor. The adaptor
supplied with the flexible connector must be used.
E. Check for leaks. Turn the gas supply on the
range and use a liquid leak detector at all joints
and connections to check for leaks in the system.
