Electrical / Gas Requirements

Electrical Requirements

Check your national and local codes regarding this unit. This range requires 
120VAC/60 Hz; 4 ft. (121.9 cm), 3-wire cord with grounded 3-prong 
plug attached to unit. See “Electrical Connection” section for grounding 
instructions. Must be fused seperately from any other circuit.

Gas Connection

The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the appliance. This range uses a 1/2” (1.3 cm) ID 
NPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all pipe joints must be resistive to LP gas.

The range is designed specifi cally for natural gas or liquid propane (LP) gas. Before beginning installation verify that the model is 
compatible with the intended gas supply.

Manual shut-off  valve:

This installer-supplied valve must be installed in the gas service line before the appliance in the gas stream and in a location where 
it can be reached quickly in the event of an emergency. Any opening behind the range shall be sealed.  In Massachusetts: A “T” 
handle type manual valve must be installed in the gas supply line to the appliance.  IMPORTANT: Any conversion required must 
be performed by your dealer or a qualifi ed licensed plumber or gas service company. Please provide the service person with this 
manual before work begins.

Pressure Regulator:

• All heavy-duty, commercial type cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for safe and 

effi

  cient operation, since service pressure may fl uctuate with local demand. External regulators are not required on this range 

since a regulator is built into each unit at the factory. Under no condition bypass this built-in regulator.

• Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer, natural gas requires 5.0” W.C.P. and LP gas requires 10.0” W.C.P. Incoming 

line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P. higher than the manifold pressure in order to check the regulator. The 
regulator used on this range can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2” PSI (14.0” W.C.P.). If the line pressure is in excess of 
that amount, a step down regulator will be required.

•The appliance must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system.

Flexible Connections:

If the unit is to be installed with fl exible couplings and/or quick-disconnect fi ttings, the installer must use a heavy-duty AGA
design-certifi ed fl exible connector of at least 1/2” (1.3 cm) ID NPT (with suitable strain reliefs) in compliance with ANSI Z21.41
and Z21.69.

In Canada:

 CAN 1-6, 10-88 metal connectors for gas appliances and CAN 1-6.9 M79 quick disconnect devices for use with gas fuel.

In Massachusetts:

 This appliance must be installed with a 36” (3-foot) long fl exible gas connector.

 ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

To avoid the risk of electrical shock, personal 
injury or death; verify electrical power is 
turned off  at the breaker box and gas supply 

is turned off  until the range is installed and ready to 
operate, installation by an authorized installer only.
