Important safety information
Installation safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• Do not attempt to service, modify, or replace your range or any part of your
range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other service
should be referred to a qualified technician.
• Always use new flexible connectors when installing a gas appliance. Do not use
old flexible connectors.
• Make sure the anti-tip device is properly installed on the range. See the
installation instructions for more information.
• Due to the size and weight of the range, have two or more people move the
range.
• Remove all tape and packaging materials.
• Remove all accessories from the cooktop, oven, and/or lower drawer. Grates and
griddles are heavy. Use caution when handling them.
• Make sure no parts came loose during shipping. Do not install in an area exposed
to dripping water or outside weather conditions.
• Make sure your range is correctly installed and adjusted by a qualified service
technician or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) you will use. For your
range to utilize LP gas, the installer must replace the 5 surface burner orifices
and 2 oven orifices with the provided LP orifice set, and reverse the GPR adapter.
These adjustments must be made by a qualified service technician in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions and all codes and requirements of the
authority having jurisdiction. The qualified agency performing this work assumes
the gas conversion responsibility.

Location safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• This range is for indoor, household use only.
Do not install the range in areas exposed to the
weather and/or water.
• Do not install the range in a place which is
exposed to a strong draft.
• Select a level, well-constructed floor that can
support the range's weight. Synthetic flooring,
such as linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C)
temperatures without shrinking, warping, or
discoloring. Do not install the range directly
over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of
¼ inch plywood or a similar insulator is placed
between the range and carpeting.
• Select a location where a grounded, 3-prong outlet is easily accessible.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper blinds
on that window.
• For the range to ventilate properly, make sure the range's vents are not blocked
or covered, and that there is enough clearance at the top, back, sides, and
underneath the range. The vents allow the necessary exhaust for the range to
operate properly with correct combustion and get the good cooking result.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 200 °F
(93 °C) generated by the range.
