adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.
3. Use a ¹⁵⁄₁₆" combination wrench and channel lock pliers to
attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that
connector is not kinked.
Complete Connection
1. Check that the gas pressure regulator shutoff valve is in the
“on” position.
2. Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
3. Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive
leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear, a leak is indicated.
Correct any leak found.
4. Remove cooktop burner caps and grates from parts package.
Burner caps should be level when properly positioned. If
burner caps are not properly positioned, surface burners will
not light. Place burner grates over burners and caps.

Verify Anti-Tip Bracket Location

See “Storage Drawer” section for instructions.
On models with a warming drawer, the rear leg cannot be seen
by removing the warming drawer. It will be necessary to view
the rear foot from outside the range.
2. To check that the anti-tip bracket is installed, use a flashlight
and look underneath the bottom of the range.
Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor.
