Installation Instructions Gas Connection WARNING • Make sure the gas is turned off at the gas supply valve before connecting the gas line. • Verify that the gas supply meets specifications before connection. See page 4. • Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas connections and fittings. • Do not use Teflon tape or plumber's putty on flexible gas line connections. • Test the gas lines for leaks as instructed before use. If a leak is detected, open all doors and windows and allow the gas to dissipate before fixing the leak and testing the unit. • Do not use a flame to check for leaks. • The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed ½ pounds per square inch (psi) or 3.5 kPa. • The range and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing exceeding ½ psi (3.5 kPa). • The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the shut-off valve to the cooktop during any gas supply piping system pressure testing equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa). • For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator installed on the range. IMPORTANT: The installed gas pressure regulator is preset at the factory for the type of gas intended for use with the appliance. Verify that the appliance is compatible with the type of gas available by checking the product data label attached to the appliance. Ranges intended for use with LP gases will have "LP" as a part of the model number. Consult your dealer if the range is not compatible with your gas supply. 1) Make sure the gas supply valve is in the off position and the range power cord is disconnected. 2) Connect a flexible gas supply line to the gas shut-off valve previously installed on the stub out. The gas line needs to be long enough to allow the range to be pulled out for service. 3) Connect the gas line to the regulator on the back of the range. 4) Turn all cooktop control valves to the "OFF" position. 5) Turn on the gas supply valve and check all lines and connections for leaks using a "OFF" soap and water solution or an electronic symbol on gas leak detector. knob 6) Turn the gas supply off. 1/2" male NPT connection Anti-tip foot 1/16" off floor Gas Line Connection 10
