• Verify proper operation of the range after servicing.

• Connect all gas connections on the range or slide-in and tighten according to the appropriate RV and gas codes.

All openings in the cabinetry around the gas line must be closed at the time of installation.

• Secure the range or slide-in by placing wood screws (not provided) through the designated holes and into the cabinet. Do not force the mounting flanges to bend.

• Turn on the gas supply.
  Conduct the range or slide-in leak testing:

• Loosen the leak check fitting screw on the regulator by one turn.

• Place the gauge on the fitting.
  Check for leaks:

• Leak testing shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions.

• Use a non-corrosive leak detection fluid. Do not use soap and water.

• Leak tests in excess of 0.5 PSI of air pressure will invalidate warranty.

• Retighten the leak check fitting screw upon completion of the leak test.

• Conduct the range or slide-in gas pressure testing prior to operation.

When conducting the range or slide-in gas pressure testing prior to operation:

• The range or slide-in, and any individual shut-off valves, must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system when pressure testing the system at pressures exceeding 0.5 PSI.

• The gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting shall be at least 1 in. W.C. (249 Pa) above the manufacturer's specified manifold pressure. The maximum gas supply pressure is 14 in. W.C.

• Turn off the gas supply.

• Slide the range or slide-in back into the cutout.

• Secure the range or slide-in:

RANGE: Secure the two brackets with the provided sheet metal screws.
- SLIDE-IN: Attach the bracket to the burner box with the provided sheet metal screws.

6 OPERATION

WARNING BURN, FIRE, EXPLOSION, AND/OR CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD Failure to obey the following warnings could result in damage, a burn hazard, possible explosion, carbon monoxide buildup, serious injury, or death:

• Do not place more than 40 lbs (18 kg) on the grate while cooking.
• Do not place more than 20 lbs (9 kg) on the oven rack while cooking.
• Do not operate the range or slide-in during excessively windy conditions as this may cause a negative or positive draft, which is air moving across the range or slide-in top that may blow out the burner flame during use or move the flame inside of the range or slide-in.
• Use care when lighting a burner by hand. Burns could occur if the burner lights unexpectedly.
• Verify that there is a sufficient gas supply before attempting to light any burner. Air in the line will significantly delay the burner ignition and a burner may light unexpectedly as the air in the line clears out and is replaced by LP gas; this unexpected ignition may cause an explosion or burns.
• If any burner or the oven pilot should unexpectedly extinguish, turn all knobs off and wait five minutes before attempting to re-light the burner or oven pilot.
• Do not attempt to light more than one burner at a time.
• Do not use the oven as a storage area or space heater.
• Extinguish all pilots when refueling or traveling.
• Do not store flammable or combustible material on, in, or near the range or slide-in or in the cabinets above, or above and adjacent to, the range or slide-in. Do not use the oven as a storage area. While using the range or slide-in, frequently check the temperature of contents within the cabinet areas above the range or slide-in.
• To avoid a carbon monoxide poisoning hazard, do not cover the oven vent openings while the oven is in operation. Do not cover the ventilation holes in the oven broiler shelf (above oven burner) or cooking times will vary from normal and food may become burned or undercooked.
• Do not operate the range or slide-in if it is damaged or not working properly.
• Do not touch burners, burner grates, areas near burners, inner surfaces of the oven, the oven door, the wire rack, or any utensils inside the oven, during and after use, as burns may occur. Do not let clothing or other flammable materials contact these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool, as they may ignite.
• Never leave burners unattended when in use, as pan contents may boil over, resulting in smoke or a grease spill that may ignite.
• Because grease is flammable, never allow grease to collect around top burners or on the range or slide-in surface. Wipe up any grease spills immediately. Never use water on grease fires, and never pick up a flaming pan. Smother a flaming pan with a tight-fitting lid or cookie sheet. Flaming grease outside of the pan can be extinguished with baking soda or a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

• Do not heat unopened containers as they could explode.

• Use pans that are large enough to cover the burner area and contain the cooked food but that do not exceed 10 in. (25 cm) in size. This will reduce or eliminate heavy splattering or spills that can ignite and cause an explosion or burns and any excessive heat build-up that would result in damage to the range or slide-in top.

• Turn pan handles inward, but not over other burners. This reduces the chance of burns due to bumping a pan.
• Do not drop pans on the porcelain surface. Cracks or chips in the porcelain surface may result.
• Be sure that all cooking utensils are safe for use on the range or slide-in surface. Only certain kinds of utensils are suitable for surface or burner use without breaking due to sudden changes in temperature. Do not adjust the burner flames to extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil or the flame could cause burns or poor cooking results.
• Use only dry potholders as moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let the potholder touch an open flame or use a towel or bulky cloth for a potholder as fire could result.
  Control knobs must be turned off when not cooking. Fire and/or a burning hazard my occur if a burner is accidentally left on.
• Do not apply excessive weight against the range or slide-in door, as it could spring the hinges; in this event, any such damage would not be covered under warranty.

6.2 Preparing The Range Or Slide-In For Use

• Turn the gas on at the shut-off valve.

If your unit is equipped with a bi-fold cover, raise the cover before using the range or slide-in.

6.3 Using The Range Top Or Slide-In

7 MAINTENANCE

WARNING BURN, FIRE, EXPLOSION, AND/OR CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD. Failure to obey the following warnings could result in damage, a burn hazard, possible explosion, carbon monoxide buildup, serious injury, or death:

• Keep range or slide-in top area clear of combustible cleaning materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• Leak testing shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Make sure all controls are OFF and the range or slide-in surfaces, burner grates, burners, and oven surfaces are cool before cleaning or disassembling the range or slide-in.
• Do not use oven cleaners, bleach, or rust removers on the range or slide-in top or burner grates.
• Clean oven with oven cleaner only. Follow directions on the cleaning product container.
• Never use a wire brush or metallic item for cleaning burner ports or orifices. Brush may "shed" bristles, that may lodge in the orifice or burner ports and cause a fire or explosion.

ACAUTION BURN AND/OR DAMAGE HAZARD. Failure to obey the following cautions could result in damage or injury:

• Clean all surfaces as soon as possible after boil overs or spillovers. Do not allow foods containing acids (such as lemon juice, tomato juice, or vinegar) to remain on porcelain or painted surfaces. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Pitting and discoloration will result if spills are allowed to remain for any length of time on stainless steel. Do not allow spills to remain on burner caps. Caps could be permanently stained if spills are not cleaned up promptly.
• Do not use steel wool, or abrasive cleaners, or acid type cleaners such as chlorine bleach on your range top, slide-in, or grate systems. They will damage your range or slide-in. Use only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pads.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning materials, oven cleaner, or harsh chemicals on the control panel as these may damage or remove the operating instructions printed on the front of the unit.
• The grate and surface of the cooktop is covered with porcelain coating. Porcelain is a glass/ceramic coating glazed to the surface of the metal. Porcelain is designed to provide a surface that can withstand high temperatures and maintain an attractive appearance and make it easier to clean. Do not wash warm porcelain surfaces. Allow these areas to cool before cleaning. Burns can occur or the porcelain could crack.
• When cleaning around the burners, use care to prevent damage to the electrode (if so equipped). If a sponge or cloth should catch the metal igniter electrode, it could damage or break the electrode. If this occurs, the burner will not light.
• Use warm soapy water only to clean the burner grates, burner box, painted surfaces, porcelain surfaces, stainless steel surfaces, and plastic items on your range top or slide-in. Do not use gritty or acid-type cleaners. Do not use steel wool or abrasive cleaners, as they will damage your range top or slide-in. Use only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pads.

Proper installation and care will help keep your range or slide-in operating properly. Most cleaning can be performed using normal household items.

7.1 Checking The Burner Flames And Oven Pilot

Light the burners, one at a time. Refer to "Lighting The Burners" on page 12, for more information.
