Electrical - Gas supply INSTALLATION
2. ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
240 V a.c., single-phase, 3 wire system, 50/60 Hz or 120 V a.c. for some cooktops (see
electric supply information for your model of cooktop).
The range, when installed must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI / NFPA 70 in the USA and the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, in
Canada as applicable.
Check the power rating at your electric meter (maximal load) to ensure that it is suitable
for your model, taking into account all other electrical appliances installed on the same
circuit.
The tables in pages 14 - 40 show the necessary power and amp ratings for each La Cornue model.
The power of the ”La Cornue” stoves, does not allow for a simple plug and socket connection; the electrical
connection must be made by means of an adequate flexible cord, built-in junction box, with terminal blocks;
the box is located about 12” (300 mm) from the floor, on the wall behind the stove, on the right.
3. GAS SUPPLY
Use sealing compound on all pipe joints. Compound used must be resistant to the action of LP Gases. The
gas supply line to the appliance must be at least the same size as the gas inlet. An easily accessible manual
shutoff valve must be installed, keeping in mind the fact that on the appliance, the gas inlet is located:
- On the left-hand side of the appliance, approximately 2
1/2
” (60 mm) from the edge.
- 24” (620 mm) above the floor (for the ranges).
NOTE:
Make sure that the supply line is clear of burrs and metal particles in order to avoid damage to the gas
controls once the gas is turned on. The pipe connections can then be made
When your ”La Cornue” appliance is installed between kitchen cabinets, the manual shutoff valve should be
accessible. We recommend it be located at the rear of an adjacent cabinet.
According to gas regulations, any opening in the wall or on the floor for gas supply of the appliance must be
properly sealed as well as any circulation of air between the gas supply room and the kitchen.
When all the work has been carried out on your gas supply network, ensure that no metallic burr can enter
the supply tube of the stove and block the burners. Then make sure that all gas connections are pro-perly
sealed. Refer to page 43 for initial test of the unit prior to turning the gas on. Refer to ”Important Safety
Information” section, on pages 1 - 8.
4. INSTALLATION
In order to ensure that the range is perfectly horizontal, especially in a kitchen with old paving or floo-ring,
we recommend that you install the stove on a wooden or cement base, the height of which will bring the hot
top to a level in accordance with its environment or your requirements.
We recommend a base of the exact size of the stove base.
