GAS HOOK-UP / TESTING AND ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION! When connecting unit to Propane (LP)
gas. Make certain the propane tank is equipped
with its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the
pressure regulator supplied with the appliance the
pressure & the gas supplied to the appliance regulator
(
must not, exceed 14" 37 mb) water column. A
pressure test point is provided near the regulator
behind the kick plate
NATURAL GAS REQUIREMENTS:

Inlet Connection: 1/2" N.P.T.

Min. 5/8" Dia. Flex Line.

Supply Pressure: 6" to 14" W.C.
PROPANE (LP) GAS REQUIREMENTS:

Inlet Connection: 1/2" N.P.T.

Min. 5/8" Dia, Flex Line.

Supply Pressure: 11" to 14" W.C.

A Regulator is required at the LP source to provide
a maximum of 14" W.C. pressure to the rangetop
regulator.
WARNING! Gas line cannot be run inside back
cover of rangetop. Run gas line in channel in
back of rangetop.
HOOK UP

A manual shut off valve must be installed external to
the rangetop in an accessible location from the front for
shutting off the gas supply when required.

The supply line MUST NOT protrude beyond the
back of the rangetop.

Ensure that the gas supply is turned OFF at the
external shut-off valve before connecting the range.

The gas supply connection must be made by an
experienced technician and in accordance with local
codes or ordinances. In the absence of local codes
or ordinances, please refer to National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA54-Current Issue.

Use 5/8" diameter flex line to connect between the
gas supply and the appliance manifold pipe, which
exists at the upper left rear of the appliance. The
appliance manifold pipe connection is 1/2". Use
caution to avoid crimping the 5/8" flex line.

NOTE: the flex line for the gas supply must be
metal and approved by an approved certifying
agency (AGA, CGA, CSA, UL or CUL). NEVER use
a hose made of rubber or other synthetic material
as the heat may cause the hose to melt and de-
velop leaks, thus causing fires, physical and prop-
erty damage.

Always use pipe dope or Teflon tape on the pipe
threads, and be careful not to apply excessive pres-
sure when tightening the fittings.

Leak testing of the appliance shall be in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Turn on gas and check supply line connections for
leaks using a soap solution. Never use a flame of
any sort to test for leaks.
CAUTION! The appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa.).
The Appliance and its individual shut off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of the system
at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa.).
When checking the manifold gas pressure, the inlet
pressure to the regulator should be at least 6.0".
DO NOT attempt any adjustment of the pres-
sure regulator.

TESTING AND ADJUSTMENTS
Install any loose components, such as burner caps and
grates that may have been removed earlier to facilitate
moving the appliance. Be certain that burner caps seat
properly into the alignment slots in the burner bases.
Before testing operation of the appliance, verify that the
unit and the gas supply have been carefully checked
for leaks and that the unit has been connected to the
electrical power supply. Turn the manual gas shut-off
valve to the open position. Check the operation of the
open gas burners by pushing and turning each
knob counterclockwise to "Hl". The burner igniters will
click until the flame ignites. Burner flames should be
BLUE and stable with no yellow tips, excessive
noise, or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of
these conditions exist, check that the air shutter or
burner ports are not blocked or clogged. Remove any
blockages that exist. If the flame is too yellow, indicating
insufficient air, adjust the shutter counterclockwise to
increase air inlet.
The open top burner flames should be approximately
1/2" to 3/4" High.
CAUTION! A qualified technician must make
burner adjustments at the time of installation.
Improper or lack of adjustments may cause harmful
by-products and void your warranty!
