36" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 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. to appliance Manual Shutoff Valve - From gas supply line Open position Figure 4 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 from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" 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). 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. The range comes supplied with fixed orifices for converting it to LP gas. These orifices are located in a bag marked FOR LP/PROPANE GAS CONVERSION. The instructions for surface, oven and broil burner conversion are packaged with the orifices.
