Whirlpool WFG530S0EW Installationsanweisungen

IMPORTANT: The range must be electrically grounded in 
accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence 
of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 
or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will 
not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is 
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that 
the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

■

A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is 
required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also 
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit 
serving only this range be provided.

■

Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, 
but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that 
the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded. 

■

This gas range is not required to be plugged into a GFCI 
(Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet. It is recommended 
that you not plug an electric spark ignition gas range or any 
other major appliance into a GFCI wall outlet as it may cause 
the GFCI to trip during normal cycling. 

■

Performance of this range will not be affected if operated on a 
GFCI-protected circuit. However, occasional nuisance 
tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible due to the normal 
operating nature of electronic gas ranges.

■

The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range in a 
clear plastic bag.

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 the range is grounded.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. 

IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes 
and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must 
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas 
Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 - latest 
edition. 

IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range must be conducted 
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with 
Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas. 

■

This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See “Gas 
Conversions” section. The model/serial rating plate located 
on the oven frame behind the top left side of the oven door 
has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the 
types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, 
check with the local gas supplier.

Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas 
specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different 
gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See “Gas 
Conversions” section.
