Full Product Manual

CONNECT RANGE TO GAS SUPPLY

• When all connections have been made, check

that all range controls are in the ‘OFF’ position

and open the main gas supply valve.

• Leak testing of the appliance shall be

conducted according to the manufacturer’s

instructions. Use some soapy water (50% water

and 50% liquid detergent) or a leak detector at all

joints and connections to check for leaks in the

system. Open the valve and check for leaks by

placing the liquid solution onto all gas

connections. Bubbles around connections

indicate a gas leak. If a leak appears, close the

shut-off valve, and adjust connections. Do not

use a flame to check for gas leaks.

• The appliance must be isolated from the

building’s gas supply piping system by closing

its individual manual shut-off valve during any

pressure testing of the gas supply piping system

at test pressure equal to or less than ½ psi

(3.5kPa).

Gas shut-off valve

IMPORTANT: The range must be connected to a regulated gas supply. The supply

line must be equipped with an approved external gas shut-off valve located near the

range in an accessible location. Do not block access to the shut-off valve.

• All connections to the gas piping must be wrench-tightened. Do not overtighten or

allow pipes to turn when tightening.

• Any pipe connections must be made using a thread sealant approved for gas

connections. Failure to correctly install these items could lead to a gas leak and

subsequent explosion.

• Install male ½” flare union adapter to ½” NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of

regulator. On models equipped with standard double burners, install the male pipe

thread end of the ½” flare union adapter to the ½” NPT internal thread at inlet of

pressure regulator. Use a wrench on the regulator ﬁtting to avoid damage.

• Install male ½” or ¾” flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual

shut-off valve, taking care to secure the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.

• The gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting is 7” (Natural Gas) and

11” (LP gas). Connect flexible gas line connector to the regulator on the range.

Position range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
