Panel C
If local codes permit, a new AGA/CSA
design-certified, 4-5 foot (122 -152.4 cm)
long, 1/2" (1.3 cm) or 3/4" (1.9 cm) I.D.,
flexible metal appliance connector is
recommended for connecting this range to the gas
supply line. Do Not kink or damage the flexible
tubing when moving the range. A 1/2" (1.3 cm)
male pipe thread is needed for connection to
pressure regulator female pipe threads.
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" (1.9 cm)
rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller
size pipe on long runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds
appropriate for use with L.P. gas must be used.
With L.P. gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2"
(1.3 cm) minimum. L.P. gas suppliers usually
determine the size and materials used on the
system.
The regulator setting must be checked at
a minimum of 1 inch water column above
the manifold pressure. The inlet pressure
to the regulator should be as follows for operation:
The supply line shall be equipped with an
approved shutoff valve. This valve should
be located in the same room, but external
to the range, and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do Not block
access to shutoff valve.
If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply
line, a combination of pipe fittings
must be used to obtain an in-line
connection to the range. All strains must be
removed from the supply and fuel lines so range
will be level and in line.
Natural gas:
Manifold pressure — 5 inches
Maximum pressure — 14 inches
L.P. gas:
Manifold pressure — 10 inches
Maximum pressure — 14 inches
Line pressure testing:
Testing above 1/2 psi (gauge): The range
and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at 1/2 psi (gauge) or lower: The range must
be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Gas supply
requirements
Explosion Hazard
Use a new AGA or CSA approved gas
supply line.
Install a shutoff valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to L.P. have a qualified person
make sure gas pressure does not exceed
14" water column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
This installation must conform with local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of
local codes, installations must conform
with American National Standard, National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 — latest edition or CANI-
B149 — latest edition* installation codes.
Input ratings shown on the model/serial
rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000
feet (609.6 m). For elevations above
2,000 feet (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a rate
of 4% for each 1,000 feet (304.8 m) above sea
level. (Not applicable for Canada.)
This range is equipped for use with
Natural gas. It is design-certified by
AGA/CSA for Natural and L.P. gas with
appropriate conversion. The model/serial rating
plate, located on the oven frame behind the
drawer, has information on the type of gas that can
be used. If this information does not agree with the
type of gas available, check with your KitchenAid
dealer.

Electrical
requirements
Recommended ground method
For personal safety, this range is equipped with a
power supply cord having a 3-prong ground plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must
be plugged into a mating 3-prong, ground-type
outlet, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*
or CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1, — latest edition** and all local codes and
ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is
the personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
- Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
servicemen if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere, fused
electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or
circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this range be
provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate within wide
voltage limits, but proper ground and polarity are
necessary. In addition to checking that the outlet
provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded,
the outlet must be checked by a qualified
electrician to see if it is wired with correct polarity.
The wiring diagram is included in the literature
package. The wiring diagram can also be found on
the back of the range.
NOTE: The metal chassis of the range must be
grounded in order for the control panel to work. If
the metal chassis of the range is not grounded, no
keypads will operate. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
metal chassis of range is grounded.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT
: Range must be connected to a
regulated gas supply.

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the ground path is adequate.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not
sure whether the range is properly grounded.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.

• Installations and repairs must be performed by
a qualified or licensed contractor, plumber, or
gasfitter qualified or licensed by the State of
Massachusetts.
• If using a ball valve, it shall be a T-handle
type.
• A flexible gas connector, when used, must not
