Installation Instructions GAS CONNECTIONS 10 MAKING THE CONNECTIONS 3″ 15″ 7″ 31⁄2″ 12″ A Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas supply line in an easily accessible location. B Know how and where to shut off the gas supply to the range. C Shut off gas supply before removing an old range. Leave it off until hookup of new range is finished. D Because solid pipe restricts moving the range, we recommend use of a C.S.A. certified flexible metal appliance connector. WARNING: Never reuse old flexible connectors. The use of old flexible connectors can cause gas leaks and personal injury. Always use new flexible connectors when installing a gas appliance.
