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 (:rack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.

Once regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the
gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through the gas line.
Check for leaks. After connecting the range to the gas
supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If
a manometer is not available, turn on tile gas supply and
use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all
joints and connections to check for leaks.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks
from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame
may result in a fire or explosion.
Tighten
all connections
as necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the range or supply line.
Disconnect
this range and its individual
manual
shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).
Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe
to the pressure regulator in the following order:
1. manual shutoff valve (not included)
2. 1/2" nipple (not included)
3. I/2" flare union adapter (not included)
4. flexible connector
(not included)
5. 1/2" flare union adapter (not included)
6. 1/2" nipple (not included)
7. pressure regulator
(included)
Isolate the range from the gas supply piping
system
by (:losing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of tile gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14"
water column).
Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and
LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections.
If flexible
connectors are used, be certain connectors are not
kinked.
The supply line must be equipped with an approved
manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the
same room as the range and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access
to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.

LP!Propane
Gas Conversion
This appliance carl be used with Natural gas or LP/Propane
gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas.
If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/Propane
gas, use the supplied fixed orifices located in a bag
containing the literature marked "FOR LP/PROPANEGAS
CONVERSION." Follow the instructions packaged with
tile orifices for surface, oven and broil burners
conversion.
The conversion must be performed by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions and all local codes and requirements. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in serious injury
or property damage. The qualified agency performing
this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Failure to make the appropriate
conversion can result in serious personal injury and
property damage.
