Installation Guide

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.
