■
LP/Natural Gas Conversion Kit (located on back of range near
lower side)
■
Burner grates
■

⁵⁄₈" screws (for mounting anti-tip bracket)
■
Anti-tip bracket (taped inside upper oven with literature
package)
Anti-tip bracket must be securely mounted to the back wall or
floor. Thickness of flooring may require longer screws to
anchor bracket to subfloor. Longer screws are available from
your local hardware store.
Parts needed
Check local codes and consult gas supplier. Check existing gas
supply and electrical supply. See “Electrical Requirements” and
“Gas Supply Requirements” sections.
Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Do
not obstruct flow of combustion and ventilation air.
■
It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the rating number plate. The rating
number plate is located behind the control panel.
■
The range should be located for convenient use in the
kitchen.
■
Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of
the sides and rear of the range.
■
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage space located above the
surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
or microwave hood combination that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
■
All openings in the wall or floor where range is to be installed
must be sealed.
In the State of Massachusetts, the following installation instructions apply:
■
Installations and repairs must be performed by a qualified or licensed contractor, plumber, or gasfitter qualified or licensed by
the State of Massachusetts.
■
If using a ball valve, it shall be a T-handle type.
■
A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed 3 feet.
