36 " GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3. Seal the openings
Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and
in the oor under the range after gas supply line is
installed.
4. Connect the range to the gas
supply
automatic ignition of the oven or broiler burner. The
oven burner and broil burner on your range
are lighted by electrical ignition. The oven and
broiler cannot be operated in the event of a
power failure.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the
surface burners can be lit manually. To light a
surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head
and slowly turn the Surface Control knob to LITE.
Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.
• Reset all controls to the "off" position
whenever the oven is done cooking.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
• Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils
before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess
spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the
Use and Care Guide.
• Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP
IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove
the cooktop.
1. Before Installing the Range
Remove shipping material
Remove all tape, shipping and packaging materials and
the oven rack packaging.
2. Provide an adequate Gas Supply
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed
to operate on 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa)
Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure
regulator is connected to the range manifold and
MUST be connected in series with the gas supply line.
If 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 air for combustion and ventilation.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure
to the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56
cm) of water column pressure (3.5 kPa). The inlet
pressure to the regulator must be at least 1" (.25 kPa)
greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting.
Examples: If regulator is set for natural gas 4"(10,16
cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be at least
5"(12.60 cm); if regulator has been converted for LP/
Propane gas 10"(25,4 cm) manifold pressure, inlet
pressure must be at least 11"(27,9 cm).
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 4.
The gas supply line should be ½" or ¾" I.D. (Interior
Diameter)

2. 1/2" nipple (not included)
3. 1/2" are union adapter (not included)
4. exible connector (not included)
5. 1/2" are union adapter (not included)
6. 1/2" nipple (not included)

Important: Remove
all packing material and
literature from range before
connecting gas and electrical
supply.
To prevent leaks, put pipe
joint sealant on all external
pipe threads.
Your regulator is in location
shown below.
Do not
allow regulator to rotate
on pipe when tightening
ttings.
Connection to Pressure Regulator
The regulator is already installed on the appliance.
Do not make the connection too
tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may
crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible
re or explosion.
