bracket is engaged when the range is pushed

back against the wall.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

This appliance must be supplied with the

proper voltage and frequency and connected

to an individual, properly grounded branch

circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse

having a recommended amperage rating per

the table below.

BREAKER OR FUSE SIZE

240V 40 Amps

208V 40 Amps

NOTE: Check Local Codes for required

breaker size.

Rating plate is located above the storage

drawer below the oven frame.

We recommend you have the electrical wiring

and hookup of your range connected by a

qualified electrician. After installation, have

the electrician show you where your main

range disconnect is located.

Check with your local utilities for electrical

codes which apply in your area. Failure to

wire your range according to governing

codes could result in a hazardous condition.

If there are no codes, your range must be

wired and fused to meet the requirements of

the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.

70–Latest edition. You can get a copy by

writing:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

Effective January 1, 1996, the National

Electrical Code requires that new, but not

existing, construction utilize a four-conductor

connection to an electric range. When installing

an electric range in new construction, a mobile

home, recreational vehicle or an area where

local codes prohibit grounding through the

neutral conductor, follow the instructions in the

section on NEW CONSTRUCTION AND FOUR-

CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT

CONNECTION.

In Canada your range must be wired and

fused to meet the requirements of the

Canadian Electrical Code.

You must use a three-wire, single-phase

A.C. 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz

electrical system.

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

WARNING — For personal safety,

remove house fuse or open circuit breaker

before beginning installation. Failure to do so

could result in serious injury or even death.

All rough-in and spacing dimensions must be

met for safe use of your range. Electricity to

the range can be disconnected at the outlet

without moving the range if the outlet is in

the preferred location (remove lower drawer).

To reduce the risk of burns or fire when

reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet

storage space above the cooktop should be

avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be

provided above the cooktop, the risk can

be reduced by installing a range hood that

protrudes at least 5” beyond the front of the

cabinets. Cabinets installed above a cooktop

must be no deeper than 13”.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician.

GAS CONNECTIONS

MAKING THE CONNECTIONS

Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas

supply line in an easily accessible location.

Know how and where to shut off the gas

supply to the range.

Shut off gas supply before removing an

old range. Leave it off until hookup of

new range is finished.

Because solid pipe restricts moving the

range, we recommend use of a C.S.A.

Installation Instructions

CHECK THE IGNITERS

Operation of the electric igniters should be

checked after the cooktop and supply line

have been carefully checked for leaks and the

cooktop has been connected to the electrical

power.

a. Turn on gas.

b. Push and turn a burner valve to the LITE

position.

• The burner valve should light when gas

is available to the burner.

• Once the burner lights, it should be

turned out of the LITE position.

c. Try each valve separately until all burners

have been checked.

D

BURNER IGNITION

Cooktop Spark Ignition—When you turn

the cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter

makes a series of electric sparks (ticking

sounds) which light the burner. During a

power failure the burners will not light

automatically. In an emergency, a cooktop

burner may be lit with a match by following

the steps below.

WARNING: Lighting gas burners

with a match is dangerous. You should match

light the cooktop burners only in an

emergency.

a. Light a match and hold the flame near the

burner you want to light. Wooden matches

work best.

b. Push in and turn the control knob slowly.

Be sure you are turning the correct knob

for the burner you are lighting.

NOTE: If the burner does not light within

five seconds, turn the knob off and wait

5 minutes before trying again.

E

BURNER FLAMES

Turn each burner on. Flames should be blue

in color with no trace of yellow. The burner

flames should not flutter or blow away from

the burner. The flame should be no less than

1/4″ on the lowest setting and no greater than

1-1/2″ on highest setting.

Burners should be checked frequently

WARNING: If you attempt

to measure the flame, please use caution.

Burns could result.

F

CHECK FOR LEAKS

Turn the gas supply on and use a liquid

leak detector (soap solution) at all joints and

connections to check for leaks. Do not use an

open flame to look for leaks. Be sure all leaks

are stopped before lighting burners.

B

PRESSURE TEST INFORMATION

The maximum allowable supply pressure

for the regulator is 14″ W.C. The minimum

supply pressure needed to check the regulator

setting is 7″ W.C. for natural gas and 10″ W.C.

for LP gas.

WARNING: The range and its

individual shut-off valve must be disconnected

from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of the gas supply system at

test pressures of more than 1/2 psig (pounds

per square inch gauge). The range must be

isolated from the gas supply piping system

by closing its individual shut-off valve during

any pressure testing of the gas supply system

at test pressures equal to or greater than

1/2 psig. NOTE: 1/2 psig = 13.855″ w.c.

PREPARATION

OPTIONAL MAINTOP FILLER OR

BACKGUARD KIT

If counter opening extends to the wall, it will

require Maintop Filler Kit (supplied with the

range) or Backguard Kit (JXS32XX or

JXS37XX) to close the gap.

NOTE: If the countertop is greater than 25″,

it will show a gap between the backguard

and wall or between filler kit and the wall.

If the countertop is less than 25″, a gap will

occur between the countertop front and the

control panel ends (see Step 8).

If you are using the optional backguard kit,

refer to the backguard kit instructions for

installation details.

If you use the filler kit, place the metal filler

piece supplied with the range to the back of

the range as shown in the figure below. Start

the 2 screws into the upper holes at the

outside rear of the range and through the

slots in the trim, holding the filler piece

centered on the maintop frame and pushing

upward to close the gap between the bottom

of the maintop and the filler trim.

When the trim is set in the proper position,

tighten the 2 mounting screws. The top of the

trim should be located below the top surface

of the maintop to prevent pots, pans and

skillets from damaging the painted parts.
