General
•Install or locate the range only in accor­
dance with the provided Installation

by a qualified installer. The range must
be properly connected to the proper gas
supply and checked for leaks. The range
must also be properly connected to

•Gas fuels and their use in appliances
can cause minor exposures to benzene,
formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and
soot, primarily from incomplete combus­

burners with a blue, rather than a yellow,
flame will minimize incomplete combus­
tion. Venting with a hood or an open
