30" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(For Models with Electric Ignition or Standing Pilot)

6

Grounding Instructions
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong
(grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong grounding
wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance.  The customer should have the
wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded and polarized.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall
receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD.

This range is equipped with either an electric ignition
system or standing pilots.  To determine which system
your range has, lift the cooktop.  Models with standing
pilots will have pilot cups as pictured in step 6b.  Follow
the appropriate instructions for your model.

Operation of Surface Burners

6a.   Electric Ignition Surface Burners

Operation of electric igniters should be checked after range
and supply line connectors have been carefully checked for
leaks and range has been connected to electric power. To
check for proper lighting, push in and turn a surface burner

knob to the LITE position. You will hear the igniter sparking.
The surface burner should light when gas is available to the top
burner.  Each burner should light within four (4) seconds in
normal operation after air has been purged from supply lines.
Visually check that burner has lit. Once the burner lights, the
control knob should be rotated out of the LITE position. There
are separate ignition devices for each burner. Try each knob
separately until all burner valves have been checked.

Note: Knob styles may vary from those pictured below.

6b.  Standing Pilot Surface Burners

After range and supply line conduits have been carefully
checked for leaks, purge air from the system. The standing
pilots must be lit immediately, proceed as follows:

1.

Raise the cooktop.

2.

Light both pilots with a match. When both pilots are lit,
adjust the top pilot adjustment until the pilots are
approximately 1/8" above the pilot cage with a very slight
yellow tip.

Check Surface Burners
To check for proper lighting, push in and turn a surface burner
knob to the LITE position. Each burner should light within four
(4) seconds in normal operation. Once the burner lights, the
knob should be rotated out of the LITE position. Try each knob
separately until all burner valves have been checked.
