5) Once reg
ulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for
gas to move through the gas line.
6) After c
onnecting the appliance to the gas supply, make sure all burners knobs are in the OFF
position and check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn
on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints and connections
to check for leaks.
TESTING
FOR LEAKS
Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may
result in a fire or explosion.
•
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the range or supply line.
•
Check alignment of control knob valves after connecting the range to the gas supply to be
sure the range manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment could cause the valve stems to rub on
the control panel, resulting in a gas leak at the valve.
•
Disconnect this range and its individual manual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa or
14" water column).
