Know where your main gas shut off valve is.
Shut off gas supply before removing an old range. Leave it
off until hookup of new range is finished,
Never reuse an old connector when installing a new
range.
See figures on this page for rigid and flexible pipe hookups.
We recommend that you use 1/2" gas supply line for both
L.P. and natural gas,
Use a pipe wrench to make connections. Hold the pressure
regulator in place while installing the adjacent pipe. Do not
put any strain on the manifold regulator assembly.
To prevent gas leaks, put a pipe joint compound that is
resistant to the action of L.P. gas, on all male (outside)
threads except the ground joint union (see figure 10).
When you are finished making connections, be sure that all
range knobs are turned to OFF before you open lhe main gas
supply valve. Check for leaks as described below.
TO CHECK FOR LEAKS:
Apply a soap solution to all gas connections in the supply
line, manifold (under cooktop) and oven. Bubbles will form
where any gas is leaking.
OO NOT use an open flame to look for leaks.
Turn off main gas supply before you try to stop a leak.
Turn main gas supply back on and recheck connections after
stopping any leaks.
Be sure all leaks are stopped before lighting pilots (some
models) or burners.
