Installation Guide 2

Never use an old connector when installing a new range. If the hard piping method is used, you
must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the connection is made. To prevent
gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male
(external) pipe threads.

Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside of the
range. Make sure everyone operating the range knows where and how to shut off the gas supply
to the range.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the adapter on the range. Position range to permit
connection at the shut-off valve.
When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in the off position and
turn on the main gas supply valve.
Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection. Leak testing of the appliance shall be
conducted in accordance to the manufacturer’s instructions.
