30" & 36" DUAL FUEL RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 5 Connect Fuel Supply 5.1 Fuel Supply Connection This appliance must be installed, grounded, and serviced by a qualified installer or service technician. Do not make connections too tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion. This appliance includes a regulator. The gas supply line requires the following parts which are not supplied with the appliance: • Manual shutoff valve • 1/2" nipples (2) • 1/2" flare union adapter (2) • Flexible connector The gas supply line to the shutoff valve should be 1/2"(1.27 cm) or 3/4"(1.9 cm) solid pipe. Install the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator in the order shown in Figure 11. All connections should be tightened with a wrench. Manual Shutoff Valve Flare Union GAS FLOW Pressure Flare Regulator Union 5.2 Check For Leaks Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may result in a fire or explosion. After connecting the range to the gas supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints and connections to check for leaks. Leaks will be indicated by bubbles appearing at the connections or joints. All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be installed must be sealed. 1. Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line. 2. Disconnect this range and its individual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14"(35.56 cm) water column). 3. Isolate the range from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14"(35.56 cm) water column). On Nipple Off Flexible Connector Nipple Access Cap Figure 11: Fuel supply connection flow When using flexible gas conduit on the range, allow sufficient slack to pull the range outside the cutout for cleaning or servicing. Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible connectors are used, be certain connectors are not kinked. Do not allow the flexible conduit to get pinched between the wall and the range. 10
