Connect The Range To The Gas Supply - Electrolux EW30GS65G Instalation Instructions

30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
4.

Connect the range to the gas supply

Important:
Remove all packing material and literature
from range before connecting gas and electrical supply.
To prevent leaks, put pipe joint sealant on all external
pipe threads.
Your regulator is in location shown below.
Do not
allow regulator to
rotate on pipe when
tightening fittings.

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 crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.

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. 1/2" 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)
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.
(Models with Sealed Top Burners)
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 the gas supply
and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all
joints and connections to check for leaks.

may result in a fire or explosion.
