STEP I
Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of
4" (10_2 cm) of water column on natural gas or, if
designed for LP gas (propane or butane), 10" (25°4 cm)
of water column. Make sure you are supplying your
range with the type of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convertible for use on natural or propane
gas. If you decide to use this range on LP gas,
conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer
before attempting to operate the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas
supplied to the regulator must be between 4" (t0.2 cm)
and 13" (33 cm) of water column. For LP gas, the
pressure supplied must be between 10" (25.4 cm) and
13" (33 cm) of water column. When checking for
proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure
must be at least 1" (2.5 cm) 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 flexible metal
appliance connector used m connect the range to the
gas supply line should have an I.D. of 1/2" and be
5 feet (1.5 m) in length for ease ofinstallatiom In
Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal
connectors no longer than 6 feet (1o8 m) in length.
STEP 2
Connect the Range to Gas
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting
the old range and leave it off until new hook-up 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 an A,G.Ao-certifled flexible meta! 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 carefillly align the pipe; the
range cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or
wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male
(external) pipe threads.
