Connecting the gas supply
7 Connecting the gas supply
Connecting the gas supply
Ensure the following requirements are met before you try
to connect the appliance to the gas supply:
¡ The appliance is shipped from the factory for use with
natural gas. If you want to use propane gas it must be
converted. A qualified technician or installer must do the
conversion.
¡ Before connecting the appliance, please check whether
the local connection conditions such as gas type and
gas pressure match the appliance settings.
¡ Make sure the gas supply is turned off at the manual
shutoff valve before disconnecting an old range and
leave it off until the new hook-up has been completed.
Do not forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances
when you turn the gas supply back on.
¡ A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed external
to the appliance, in a location accessible from the front,
for the purpose of shutting off the gas supply. The sup-
ply line must not interfere with the back of the unit.
¡ The range can be installed using a rigid pipe or a CSA
International-certified flexible metal flex gas line.
¡ Apply pipe joint compound or Teflon tape appropriate
for use with LP gas and Natural gas around all male
pipe threads to prevent leaks.
The gas connection is located below the back panel of the
range. It is accessible through the drawer access panel or
from the back of the range. To reach the access panel, re-
move the warming drawer. → Page17
7.1 Installing a metal flex gas line
Notes
¡ The metal flex gas line must not come into contact with
moving parts of the fitted unit (e.g. drawers) or be laid in
areas where it could become trapped or damaged.
¡ The metal flex gas line must not come into contact with
a cooktop, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, washing ma-
chine, hot water pipe, radiator or any other appliance in-
stalled in the vicinity of the range.
¡ The metal flex gas line must not be subject to rubbing,
vibrations, kinking or any other kind of deformation. It
should be checked along its entire length with the range
in the installed position.
¡ Always install a new metal flex gas line.
1. Install male ½" flare adapter at the ½" NPT internal
thread of the range inlet. Use a backup wrench on the
elbow fitting to avoid damage.
2. Install male ½" or ¾" flare union adapter on the internal
thread of the manual shut-off valve.
3. Connect the flexible metal appliance connector.
