30” FULL GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety symbols and 
instructions. Please pay attention to these symbols 
and follow all instructions given.

Installation of this range must conform with local 
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the 
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA .54-lat-
est edition or CAN/CGAB149.1 and CAN/CGA-
B149.2 standards.
When installed in a manufactured (mobile) home, 
installation must conform with the Manufactured 
Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 
CFRR, 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, 
ANSI/NCSBCS A.225.1, or with local codes in 
United States or with ANSI Z225.1/NFPA 501A-lat-
est edition, or CAN/CSAZ240MH in Canada.
This range has been design certified by CSA Inter-
national. As with any appliance using gas and gen-
erating heat, there are certain safety precautions 
you should follow. You will find them in the Use and 
Care Guide, please read it carefully.

• Make sure your range is installed and 

grounded properly by a qualified installer or 
service technician.

• This range must be electrically grounded in 

accordance with local codes or, in their 
absence, with the National Electrical Code 
ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition in the United 
States or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian 
Electrical Code, Part 1 in Canada. 

See Ground-

ing Instructions in the Electrical Requirements 
section of these Installation Instructions.

• Before installing the range in an area covered with 

linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, 
make sure the floor covering can withstand heat 
at least 90°F above room temperature without 
shrinking, warping or discoloring. Do not install 
the range over carpeting unless you place an 

insulating pad or sheet of ¼" (10,16cm) thick ply-
wood between the range and carpeting.

• Make sure the wall coverings around the range 

can withstand the heat generated by the range.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the 

oven vent nor around the base or beneath the 
lower front panel of the range. Avoid touching the 
vent openings or nearby surfaces as they may 
become hot while the oven is in operation. This 
range requires fresh air for proper burner combus-
tion.

• Air curtains or other overhead range hoods, which 

operate by blowing air downwards onto a range, 
shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges 
other than when the hood and range have been 
designed, tested and listed by an independent 
test laboratory for use in combination with each 
other.

• Do not store items of interest to children in the 

cabinets above the range. Children could be seri-
ously burned if they climb on the range to reach 
items.

• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface 

burners, cabinet storage space above the burners 
should be avoided.

• Adjust the size of the surface burner flame so that 

it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking 
utensil. An excessive flame size is hazardous.

• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This cre-

ates a potentially hazardous situation.

• Never use your range for warming or heating the 

room. Prolonged use of the range without ade-
quate ventilation can be dangerous.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable 

vapors and liquids near this or any other appli-
ance. Explosions or fires could result.

WARNING 

This symbol will help alert you to 

situations that may cause serious injury death or 
property damage.

CAUTION 

This symbol will help alert you to 

situations that may cause injury or property dam-
age.

WARNING 

Never leave children alone or unat-

tended in the area where an appliance is in use. 
As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use 
of all appliances. Never leave the oven door open 
when the range is unattended.

CAUTION 

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the 

doors or drawers of this range can result in serious 
injuries and can also cause damage to the range.
