30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Models with Sealed Top Burners) 3 Seal the openings Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range after gas supply line is installed. 4 Connect the range to the gas supply Important: Remove all packing material and literature from range before connecting gas and electrical supply. To prevent leaks, put pipe joint sealant on all external pipe threads. Your regulator is in location shown below. Do not allow regulator to rotate on pipe when tightening fittings. Figure 3 PRESSURE REGULATOR LOCATION Connection to Pressure Regulator The regulator is already installed on the appliance. Do not make the connection too tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion. Manual Shutoff Valve Flare Union GAS FLOW Pressure Flare Regulator Union On Nipple Off Flexible Connector Nipple Access Cap All connections must be wrench-tightened Figure 4 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. to appliance Shutoff Valve Open position to gas supply line Figure 5 The supply line must be equipped with an approved manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the range and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. Once regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line. Check for leaks. 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. 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. Tighten all connections as necessary to prevent gas leakage in the range or supply line. 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). 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" water column). Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator in the following order: 1. manual shutoff valve (not included) 2. 1/2" nipple (not included) 3. 1/2" flare union adapter (not included) 4. flexible connector (not included) 5. 1/2" flare union adapter (not included) 6. 1/2" nipple (not included) 7. pressure regulator (included) 5 LP/Propane Gas Conversion This appliance can be used with Natural gas or LP/ Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas. If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/ Propane gas, use the supplied fixed orifices located in a bag containing the literature marked "FOR LP/PROPANE GAS CONVERSION." Follow the instructions packaged with the orifices for surface, oven and broil burners conversion. 6
