Important Safety Instructions
Gas Safety
WARNING
If you smell gas:
• close the valve, and do not use the range;
• do not light a match, candle, or cigarette;
• do not turn on any appliances;
• do not touch any electrical switches or plug in a power cord;
• do not use any phone in your building;
• evacuate everyone from the building;
• immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone, and follow the supplier’s directions;
• if you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
Checking for Gas Leaks
Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks. Brush a soap-and-water solution around the area. If
there is a leak, small bubbles will appear in the solution. If still unsure, call a service professional.
Electrical and Grounding Safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of property damage, fire, personal injury, and death:
• Plug the range into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter or an extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged plug, cord, or loose outlet or modify these components.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
• Use a dedicated 240 Vac , 60 Hz, 50 Amp breaker for the 48" range and a 40 Amp breaker for
the 36" range. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• The range must be grounded, which reduces risk of electric shock by giving the current a safe
path. The range’s cord has a grounding plug, which must be firmly plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded per local regulations. If you are unsure your outlet is properly
grounded, have a licensed electrician check it.
• Electrical service to the range must conform to local codes, in the absence of which, it should
meet the latest ANSI/NFPA No. 70 – Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical
Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions.
• The owner shall ensure provision of proper electrical service.
