30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 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 Figure 6 to gas supply line The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve (see Figure 6). 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. 6 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. The conversion must be performed by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all local codes and requirements. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion. Failure to make the appropriate conversion can result in personal injury and property damage. 7 Moving the Appliance for Servicing and Cleaning Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service drawer (warmer drawer on some models) and open the oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit. Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical power and gas to the range. Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line. 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). 7
