INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - FREESTANDING GAS RANGE
5.6 CAPACITY
Connect range to gas supply.
Note: To prevent leaks use pipe joint sealant on all male
(outside) pipe threads. Do not allow gas pressure
regulator to turn on pipe when tightening ttings.
a. Installanexternalmanualgasshut-offvalvetogas
supply line in an accessible location outside of range.
Besureyouknowwhereandhowtoshutoffthegas
supplytotherange(SeeFig.8).
b. Install1/2”areunionadaptertogaspressure
regulator using nomorethan15ft./lbs. of torque
(RefertoFig.8).
Provide an adequate gas supply.
Please note:Operationatelevationsabove2000ft.,
applianceratingshallbereducedattherateof4percent
for each 1000 ft. above sea level.
Thisapplianceispre-settooperateon4”naturalgas
manifoldpressure.Aconvertiblepressureregulatoris
connected to the manifold and MUST be connected
inserieswiththegassupplyline.IftheLP/Propane
conversion kit has been used, follow instructions provided
withthekitforconvertingthepressureregulatortoLP/
Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstructtheowofcombustionandventilationair.
For proper operation,themaximuminletpressuretothe
regulatorshouldbenomorethan14inchesofwater
column pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator must
be at least 1 inch greater than regulator manifold pressure.
Example:Ifregulatorissetfornaturalgas4inchmanifold
pressure,inletpressuremustbeatleast5inches;if
regulatorhasbeenconvertedforLP/Propanegas10
inch manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 11
inches.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according
totheinstructionsinstep4g.
Thegassupplylineshouldbe1/2”or3/4”I.D.
  Sealwallopenings.
Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and in the
oorundertherangeaftergassupplylineisinstalled.

 Besuretostabilize the left side of the gas pressure
regulatorbeforetighteningANYttingstothepressure
regulator. Do not allow pressure regulator to turn on
pipewhentighteningttings(RefertoFig.9).
