Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Prior to installation, ensure that the local
distribution conditions (nature of the gas
and gas pressure) and the adjustment of the
appliance are compatible.
The range is designed to operate at a manifold
pressure of 4’’ of water column on natural gas.
A conversion kit for LP gas (propane or butane)
is supplied with the range. When converted to
LP gas, a pressure of 10’’ of water column is
required.
Make sure you are supplying your range with the
correct type of gas.
If the range is to be used on LP gas, a qualifi ed
LP installer must convert it. We recommend that
the range be converted before installation. This
must be done before the range can be used on
LP gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas
supplied to the regulator must be between 4

’’
and 13’’ of water column.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be
between 10’’ and 13’’ of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the
regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1’’
greater than the operating (manifold) pressure
as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the
range manifold must remain in the supply line
regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being
used.
A fl exible metal appliance connector used to
connect the range to the gas supply line should
have an I.D. of 1/2’’ and be 5 feet in length for
ease of installation.
Connect the Range to the Gas
Supply
Shut off the main gas supply valve before
disconnecting the old range and leave it off until
the new hookup has been completed. Don’t
forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances
when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of
the range, the use of a CSA International-
certifi ed fl exible metal appliance connector is
recommended unless local codes require a
hard-piped connection.
Never use an old connector when installing a
new range. If the hard piping method is used,
you must carefully align the pipe; the range
cannot be moved after the connection is made.
