Installing a Backguard (Optional)
Before making the gas/electrical connections, install the blackguard per blackguard kit instructions. Approved kits for this range

Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket
Install the anti-tip bracket in one of two ways:

• Floor mounting (preferred)
• Wall mounting (alternate—if floor mounting is unsuitable). If the range’s front panel (excluding bull nose) is over 27” (68.6 cm) from the back wall – or – if the flooring is too thick (see WallMounting the Anti-Tip Bracket), floor-mounting must be used.

Floor-Mounting the Anti-Tip Bracket

WARNING
The anti-tip bracket must be attached as instructed to the concrete slab or wood sub-floor below any flooring (including cement board). Do not attach the bracket directly to floor coverings.

Four plastic anchors are provided with three sizes (4 each) of #8 or #12 Phillips-head screws. Use the anchors and four of the screws only if attaching the bracket to a concrete sub-floor.

1. Determine the location of the range center line and front panel for the range’s final position based on the Product Dimensions (Pg. 5) and the actual cabinet/cutout dimensions.

2. Determine the required position of the anti-tip bracket. Mark the four (4) mounting hole locations on the floor with a pencil.|
   

3. Determine the screw size required. The minimum full thread depth (portion of screw threaded into wood/slab) for wood is 3/8” (1 cm) and 5/8” (1.6 cm) for concrete. See SCREW SIZE TABLE to select the correct screw size.

Anchoring the Bracket To Concrete

1. Drill four 3/8”-diameter countersink holes through any existing floor covering to (but not into) the concrete slab.
2. With a 3/16” masonry bit, drill four anchor holes 1-1/4” (3.2 cm) into the concrete slab. The hole must be longer than the anchor for proper installation.
3. Clear the holes of dust and debris, then tap the anchors into  the holes so the top is flush with the slab.
4. Position the anti-tip bracket over the anchor holes.
5. Insert the screws through the 4 holes in the base of the bracket, and thread them into the anchors. Ensure the screw threads engage the anchor.
6. Tighten the screws.

Attaching the Bracket To a Wooden Sub-Floor

1. If there is a hard floor covering (e.g., ceramic, asphalt), drill four countersink holes to (but not into) the wood sub-floor.
2. (With a 1/16” bit for #8 screws or a 1/8” bit for #12 screws) Drill four pilot holes into the wood sub-floor.
3. Align the anti-tip bracket holes with the holes in the floor.
4. Insert and tighten the four screws.

ANTI-TIP BRACKET PLACEMENT

A| 10-7/8” (27.6 cm)| 1-1/2” (3.8 cm)
B| 22-1/2” (57.2 cm)| 22-1/2” (57.2 cm)
*Excludes bull nose (see Pg. 3)
SCREW SIZE TABLE

Sub-Floor Type/Floor Covering Thickness| Screw
Concrete or wood sub-floor, no floor covering| #8 x 1
Concrete/wood sub-floor, floor covering up to 1/4” thick
Concrete/wood sub-floor, floor covering over 1/4”, up to 1/2” thick| #8 x 1 1/4
Wood sub-floor, floor covering over 1/2”, up to 1 3/16” thick| #12 x 1 3/4 *
Concrete under floor covering over 1/2” thick| Not included*
Wood sub-floor, floor covering over 1-3/16” thick
Included with range; **Determine required depth based on information in Step 3 and purchase from local hardware store.

Wall-Mounting the Anti-Tip Bracket

• To use this option:
  • the range’s front panel (exterior surface of the door—not the forward edge of the bull nose) must be 27 in. (68.6 cm) or less from the wall behind the range.
  • the bracket screws must be able to thread into the wall’s base plate (see the graphic, Step 5, Pg. 7).
• Notches on the bracket sides indicate the minimum required height of the base plate and that any floor covering does not keep screw threads from engaging the base plate.

Using the graphic in Step 4 and the final installation cabinet/cutout dimensions, find the range’s center line and front panel location.

1. Determine and mark the position of the anti-tip bracket.

2. Place the bracket in position, and mark a dot at the notch on each side of the bracket.

3. Drill just deep enough to see if the bit contacts the base plate.

   • If the bit contacts the base plate, wall mounting is suitable.
   • If the bit does not contact the base plate, you must either floor-mount the bracket.)
     

4. Place the bracket against the wall in the mounting location. Using a 1/8” bit, drill four 1-5/8” deep pilot holes perpendicular to the screw-seating surfaces shown below. Attach the bracket to the wall as shown with the included #12 x 1-3/4 screws.

WARNING

• Do not try to disengage the hinge catches with the door removed. The springs could release causing personal injury.
• Do not lift the door by its handle.

NOTE: If installing the optional back guard, install it before sliding the range into place. (See page 5.)

1. Open the door to its fully opened position.

2. Use a pair of needle nose pliers and a flat blade screwdriver to rotate the catch over the retaining arm on each hinge.
   

3. Lift the oven door to about 15° from vertical.

4. Grasping the door with both hands just below the handle, lift it away from the oven.
   

Connecting the Gas

WARNING

• Close the gas-supply valve, and unplug the range before connecting the gas line.
• Do not overtighten the gas connections/fittings.
• Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on gas flex line connections.
• LP installations: The LP gas tank must have its own highpressure regulator in addition to the range’s own regulator.
• The maximum gas-supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed 1/2 psi (pound/square inch) or 3.5 kPa.
• Disconnect the range and shut-off valve from the gas supply piping for pressure tests over 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
• The shut-off valve must be closed during pressure testing at or below 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
• Check all gas lines for leaks as instructed to avoid a fire or explosion hazard. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.

NOTE: The gas-pressure regulator is factory-set the type of gas intended for use with the range. To verify that the range is compatible with the home gas supply, see the range rating label (rear of range). If the range should use LP gas, “LP” will be in the model number. Call your dealer if the range is incompatible with the home gas supply.

1. Close the gas-supply valve, and unplug the range.
2. Connect a flexible gas line to the gas shut-off valve previously installed on the stub out. The gas line must be long enough for the range to be pulled out for service without disconnecting the flex line.
3. Slide the gas line up through the access holes in the chassis to the regulator. (Move aside the wires in the access holes to keep them from catching on the gas line.)
4. Connect the gas line to the regulator.
5. Turn off all cooktop control valves, and open the gas valve.
6. With a soap-and-water solution, check all lines and connections for leaks.
7. (If there are no gas leaks) Close the gas valve connected to the range.

Finalizing Anti-Tip Installation

1. Peel the protective plastic from the range (including the door).

2. Measure from floor to countertop, and adjust the leveling legs as needed so the cooktop trim is even with or above the countertop.

3. Find the anti-tip foot on the back of the range, and turn it until it is 1/16” (2 mm) off the floor.
   

4. Carefully slide the range into the cutout, ensuring the anti-tip foot engages the anti-tip bracket.

5. With a flashlight, verify that the bracket covers the anti-tip foot.
   

6. With a level ensure the range tnot tilt front to back or side to side. (Adjust the legs as needed.)

Re-installing the Oven Door(s)

WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage:

• Before opening the door, ensure the notch on the bottom of each hinge rests on the lower lip of each hinge receptacle.
• Flip the hinge locks toward the range immediately after installing the door.

1. Grasp the oven door on the sides below the handle, and hold it at a 15° angle to the oven front.

2. Slide the hinges into their openings, resting the bottom of the hinge arms on the hinge receptacles.

3. Keeping the door at 15°, push until the notch on the bottom of each hinge slips over the lower lip of each hinge receptacle.
   

4. Fully open the door, and flip both hinge locks toward the oven.

5. Carefully open/close the door fully to verify proper installation.

6. Remove any packaging from inside the oven.

Installing the Burner Knobs

WARNING
Incorrectly installing the burner-control knobs may lead to griddle damage from excessive heat. Knobs for the center burners have the MAX GRIDDLE setting.

NOTE: A D-shaped key on the back of each knob mates with the D-shaped valve stem to ensure proper installation and function

The range has three types of burner-control knobs:

Oven / Broil Knob A

Max Griddle Burner Knob Icons B

Left Burner Knob Icons C

HGPR36S Knob Placement

Assembling the Cooktop

WARNING
Do not use the cooktop unless all burner components and grates are properly in place.

• The range uses standard and SimmerSear burners.
• Use porcelain or brass burner caps as you prefer.
• When assembling the burners, rotate/adjust each part until it seats securely in place for proper function.
• Gently set the grates in the spill tray so the feet of each grate rest in their corresponding dimples formed into the spill tray.

Verifying Proper Function

Before using the range, read the User Manual completely. It contains important safety, service, and warranty information.

Before starting, turn off all range controls, and verify that all cooktop components are properly in place..

1. Open the gas-supply valve.

2. Plug in the range. The oven indicator light blinks for 10 seconds. (When the blinking stops, go to Step 3.

3. Test a burner: Pushing-turn a knob to HIGH. The burner may take 4 seconds to ignite, at which time the ignitor stops sparking. If ignition does not occur within 4 seconds, turn the burner off, wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate, then repeat Step 3.

4. After ignition, turn the knob to LOW. A proper flame is steady and quiet, with a sharp, blue inner cone that varies in length with the burner size. Dacor’s Smart Flame™ feature reduces the flame under the grate fingers to lengthen the life of the grate. If the range is equipped for LP gas, the flame tips may be yellow, which is normal.

5. Turn the burner off, and repeat the ignition test for the other burners, being sure to turn each off after testing.

6. Open the oven door. On the control panel, turn the light switch on and off. The oven lights go on and off.

7. Turn on/off the convection fan. Behind the filter in the oven’s rear wall, the fan whirs and stops. 8. With the door open, turn the oven to 400 °F. The knob and oven’s ON indicator light up. Within 60 seconds, the bake burner (in the oven floor) comes on and starts giving off heat.

8. Turn the oven to BROIL. The bake burner turns off. The oven knob and oven’s ON indicator are lit; within 60 seconds the IR burner (on the oven ceiling) ignites and starts giving off heat.

9. Turn off the oven.

10. (Model HGPR48S) Verify the proper function of both ovens

If the range does not operate properly:

1. Check the electrical connections and gas supply to ensure that the installation has been completed correctly, and that the range receives power and gas..
2. Retest cooktop and oven function.
3. If the rangee still does not work, contact Dacor Customer
