GAS CONVERSIONS IMPORTANT: Gas conversions from Natural gas to Propane gas must be done by a qualified installer. WARNING Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. To Convert Gas Pressure Regulator from Natural Gas to Propane 1. Remove the gas pressure regulator cap by using a large flat-blade screwdriver, turning the regulator cap counterclockwise. When the cap is removed, do not lose the metal seal. NOTE: Do not remove the spring beneath the cap. 2. Remove spring retainer from the cap by turning the spring retainer counterclockwise. Locate the "LP" and "NAT" position on the spring retainer. Turn over the spring retainer so the "LP" arrow is pointing toward the cap. A Securely tighten all gas connections. If connected to propane, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column. B Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Tighten the gas pressure regulator cap by using a large flat blade screwdriver, turning the regulator cap clockwise. 4. Test the gas pressure regulator and gas supply line. The regulator must be checked at a minimum 1" (2.5 cm) water column above the set pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for operation and checking the regulator setting: Propane Gas: Minimum pressure: 10" (25.4 cm) WCP Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP Gas Supply Pressure Testing Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" (2.5 cm) water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on the model/serial/rating plate. Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge (14" [35.6 cm] WCP) The cooktop and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge (14" [35.6 cm] WCP) or lower The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). 13
