Check for leaks. After connecting range to gas,
check system for leaks with a manometer. If a
manometer is not available, turn the gas supply on
to the range and use a liquid leak detector at all
joints and connections to check for leaks.
Tighten all connections if necessa.ty to prevent gas
leakage in the range or supply line.
Check alignment of valves after connecting the range
to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe has
not been moved. A misalignment could cause the
valve knob stem to rub on the control panel,
resulting in a gas leak at the valve.
Disconnect
this range and its individual
shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures
greater than
1/2
psig.
Isolate the range from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual shut off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2" psig.

STEP 4: ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Electrical Requirements:
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions we strongly recommend against the use of
an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use
an extension cord, it is absolutely necessa~ that it
be a UL listed 3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord and that the current carrying rating
of the cord in amperes be equivalent to or greater
than the branch circuit rating. Such extension
cords are obtainable through your local appliance
dealer.
