Installation requirements
WARNING
If the information in this manual is not
followed exactly, a fire or explosion may
result, causing death, personal injury, or
property damage.
- Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
- WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
• DO NOT light a match, candle, or
cigarette.
• DO NOT try to light any appliance.
• DO NOT touch any electrical switch.
• DO NOT use any phone in your building.
• Clear the room, building, or area of all
occupants.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from
a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas
supplier's instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier,
call the fire department.
- Installation and service must be
performed by a qualified installer, service
agency, or gas supplier.
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, apply pipe-joint
compound or wrap pipe-thread tape with
Teflon on all male (external) pipe threads.
1. 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.

2. Install male 0.5-in (1.3-mm) flare union
adapter to the 0.5-in (1.3-mm) NPT
internal thread at the regulator inlet. Use
a backup wrench on the regulator fitting
to avoid damage.
When installing the range from the
front, remove the 90 ° elbow for easier
installation.
3. Install male 0.5-in (1.3-mm) or 0.75-in
(1.9-mm) flare union adapter to the NPT
internal thread of the manual shut-off
valve, taking care to back up the shut-off
valve to keep it from turning.
4. Connect flexible metal appliance
connector to the adapter on the range.
Position range to permit connection at the
shut-off valve.
5. 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.
WARNING
Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks to
prevent death, personal injury, explosion,
and/or fire hazard.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2
psig to pressure-test the gas supply system
of the residence, disconnect the range
and individual shut-off valve from the gas
supply piping. When using test pressures
of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply
system, simply isolate the range from the
gas supply system by closing the individual
shut-off valve.
