Instructions / Assembly

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 conduct-
ed 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 connec-
tions. 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 build-
ing’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 regu-
lator. 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. Posi-
tion range to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
