Installation - Dual Fuel Range

[Narrator]

 

  • Please read through the instructions in the manual or watch this video in its entirety before attempting installation!

  • And be sure to pause the video when necessary.

  • Use at least 2 people when lifting or moving the range, to help prevent damage or injury.

  • Dual fuel gas range installation and service must be performed by an authorized licensed installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.

  • For your safety, NEVER handle, perform, service, or attempt to install any gas connections or gas lines yourself.

  • Make sure the Installer understands that the installation requires both gas and electrical connections before beginning the installation.

  • Don't forget to remove all packaging materials that came with your dual fuel range.

  • The following tools are required:

    • Flat-blade and Phillips-Head Screwdrivers (big and small)

    • 240 Volt Electric Power Code and Strain Relief (3 or 4 wire hookup)

    • Power Drill with a 5/32" Concrete Drill Bit

    • Adjustable Wrench

    • Level and Gloves

  • First, connect the range to the gas supply line.

  • The gas range cooktop is setup for natural gas but it can be converted to LP gas if needed.

  • The LP conversion kit including the required parts and instructions can be found attached to the back of the oven.

  • The dual fuel range is equipped with both a gas cooktop, and Electric government, and the pressure regulator on the back of the range sets at a 45 degree angle.

  • You may require additional clearance behind the range to accommodate both a 240 volt electrical outlet and a gas supply line to the angled pressure regulator.

  • Once the range is connected to gas, connect the power cord.

  • Check the 240 volt outlet in your kitchen to determine whether you need to purchase a 3 wire or 4 wire power cord for the range.

  • Electric range connection kits can be purchased at most local home improvement stores.

  • If necessary, check local electrical codes for further information.

  • If you are renovating or building a new home have the range electrical outlet installed 6 inches from the floor and 6 inches from the right side cabinet.

  • Pull the range far enough out of the cavity, so the range back is accessible when you have enough room to install the power cord.

  • Turn off the power connecting to the oven range outlet.

  • Power cord connection instructions can also be found on the back of the range.

  • If your home was built after 1996, you will probably require the 4 wire electrical connection.

  • For older homes with a 3 wire connection, the steps are the same except for how the terminal block connections are made.

  • Remove the access panel cover.

  • Remove the screws from the terminal block, take a moment and become familiar with the components inside the terminal block.

  • Pause the video if necessary.

  • For a 4 wire connection, remove the green ground screw from the ground strap located below to Center terminal on the terminal block.

  • Bend the ground strap up and align the hole in the strap with the center screw hole on the terminal block.

  • Pull the power cord wires up through the conduit connection plate.

  • Insert the green ground screw into the power cord green ground wire terminal ring and reinsert the screw in the terminal block.

  • For a 3 wire connection, do NOT remove or reposition the green ground screw and ground strap.

  • Attach the white wire to the center terminal on the terminal block.

  • Attach the remaining wires to the outer terminals, matching the wire color with the wires already on the terminals.

  • Red to red, and black to black, leaving no gap or slack.

  • A cord strain relief is required to prevent the cord from accidentally being pulled off when the range is moved.

  • If your power cord kit did not include a string relief, refer to the instructions provided with the power cord to purchase the correct strain relief at your local home improvement store.

  • The most common cord strain relief has 2 pieces.

  • Place the piece with a smaller screw holes behind the cord with the angled tab inserted through the hole in the connection plate.

  • Place the other piece in front of the cord, with the angled tab inserted through the hole of the connection plate.

  • The cord should now be sandwiched between the 2 halves of the string relief.

  • Insert the screws on each side of the strain relief, to firm it tights the clamp to prevent the cord from sliding.

  • Be careful not to damage the cord when tightening the strain relief.

  • Screw the excess cover panel back into place.

  • Next, install the anti-tip bracket.

  • The anti-tip bracket, an installation template, and instructions are included with the range.

  • Determine the final location of the range before and something to install the bracket.

  • Place the bracket on the floor with the bracket edge against the rear wall.

  • If the range does not reach the rear wall, align the back edge of the bracket with the rear panel of the range in its final location.

  • The anti-tip bracket must be screwed to the floor or rear wall.

  • To install onto wood floors, use the screws provided to secure the bracket using a pair of marked holes.

  • For concrete floors, use a concrete bit to drill a 5/32" hole, 2 inches deep into the concrete at the center of each of the marked holes on the bracket.

  • Use the screws provided to secure the bracket into the floor.

  •  

  • For rear wall installation, use the 2 screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of marked holes at the LOC-C location as shown here.

  • The screws must enter into a wood sill plate.

  • If the wall contains any metal studs or similar materials, then the floor must be used.

  • If you prefer, have your installer mount the anti-tip bracket as well.

  • You can now plug in your unit and turn on the power that connects to your range.

  • The control panel will illuminate and a tone will sound.

  •  

  • The clock must be set to the correct time of day in order for the automatic oven timing functions to work properly.

  • Press and hold Cook Time for 3 seconds.

  • CLO will appear in the display, press + or - on a control panel to select your desired time.

  • Press Start to accept the change.

  • Before pushing the range fully into the cavity, use a wrench to adjust the height of the front and rear legs so that the height of the cooktop matches the height of the countertops.

  • To raise or lower the legs, turn the legs clockwise or counterclockwise.

  • Slide the unit into position, and adjust the front legs as necessary to level the unit.

  • Assemble the surface burners and caps, align and past a spark igniter through the hole of the appropriate sized surface burner.

  • Place the appropriate size capital for each surface burner.

  • Seat the burner caps correctly or you may experience uneven flames and/or poor ignition.

  • To ignite each burner, turn the knob position to lite.

  • You will hear a clicking sound and the flames will appear.

  • Ignite each burner and make sure the flames are even all the way around.

  • If the flames are uneven: Turn off the burners, wait for the burners to cool.

  • For safety, wear heat-resistant gloves while readjusting the burner caps.

  • Once the burners are seated, set the grates on the cooktop.

  • Then adjust the oven racks to the desired positions.

  • When first operating your new dual fuel range oven, you may notice a smoky odor.

  • This is normal for a new oven and will dissipate over time.

  • To help speed up the process, run a Self-Clean cycle for a minimum of 2 hours before using the oven.

  • Please watch our video on "Using Self-Clean" for further details and thorough instructions.

  • If there is a gap between the range and back wall, use the rear filler kit provided.

  • Using a screwdriver remove the upper 4 screws that attach the rear bracket.

  • Loosen the 2 screws on the side of the bracket.

  • Place the filler on the rear bracket as shown.

  • Tighten the outer screws and insert the screws that was previously removed at each end of the filler.

  • With 2 screws left over, set them aside with the instructions for future use.

  • You are now ready to use your new dual fuel range oven.
