Installation Instructions
Removing the Oven Door
Make the range easier to move by detaching the door.
WARNING
• Do not try to disengage the hinge catches with the door
removed. The springs could release causing personal injury.
• Do not lift the door by its handle.
NOTE: If installing the optional backguard, install it before sliding
the range into place. (See page 5.)
1. Open the door to its fully opened position.
2. Use a pair of needle nose pliers and a flat blade screwdriver
to rotate the catch over the retaining arm on each hinge.
3. Lift the oven door to about 15° from vertical.
4. Grasping the door with both hands just below the handle, lift
it away from the oven.

Connecting the Gas
WARNING
• Close the gas-supply valve, and unplug the range before
connecting the gas line.
• Do not overtighten the gas connections/fittings.
• Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on gas flex line
connections.
• LP installations: The LP gas tank must have its own high-
pressure regulator in addition to the range’s own regulator.
• The maximum gas-supply pressure to the regulator must
never exceed 1/2 psi (pound/square inch) or 3.5 kPa.
• Disconnect the range and shut-off valve from the gas supply
piping for pressure tests over 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
• The shut-off valve must be closed during pressure testing at
or below 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
• Check all gas lines for leaks as instructed to avoid a fire or
explosion hazard. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.
NOTE: The gas-pressure regulator is factory-set the type of
gas intended for use with the range. To verify that the range is
compatible with the home gas supply, see the range rating label
(rear of range). If the range should use LP gas, “LP” will be in the
model number. Call your dealer if the range is incompatible with
the home gas supply.
1. Close the gas-supply valve, and unplug the range.
2. Connect a flexible gas line to the gas shut-off valve previously
installed on the stub out.
The gas line must be long enough for the range to be pulled
out for service without disconnecting the flex line.
3. Slide the gas line up through the access holes in the chassis
to the regulator. (Move aside the wires in the access holes to
keep them from catching on the gas line.)
4. Connect the gas line to the regulator.
5. Turn off all cooktop control valves, and open the gas valve.
6. With a soap-and-water solution, check all lines and
connections for leaks.
7. (If there are no gas leaks) Close the gas valve connected to
the range.
