30" FULL GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Connect the gas supply line to the unit pressure reg-
ulator using a 1/2" flex gas line connector between
the manual shut-off valve and the pressure regula-
tor. A metal flex line or fixed metal pipe must be
used to connect the gas to the appliance. If a metal
gas line cannot be used, consult your local certified
electrician or local electric codes for proper ground-
ing.
Check the supply line connections for leaks using a
soap solution or non-corrosive leak detection fluid.
Do not use a flame of any sort.
WARNING
Install a gas shutoff valve near the
appliance. After installation, it must be easily
accessible in an emergency.
1. Turn on gas.
2. Apply a soap solution or non-corrosive leak
detection fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas
connection between the shut-off valve and the
cooktop. Include gas fittings and joints in the
cooktop if connections may have been disturbed
during installation. Bubbles appearing around fit-
tings and connections indicate a leak.
3. If you detect a leak, turn off supply line gas shut-
off valve and tighten connections.
4. Retest for leaks by turning the gas supply line
shutoff valve on. When the leak check has been
completed (no bubbles appear), the test is com-
plete.
5. Wipe off all residues of the soap solution or
detection fluid.
Important Notes for Gas Connection:
• The appliance and its individual gas shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during pressure testing of the system at
test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
• The appliance must be isolated from the gas sup-
ply piping system by turning off its individual man-
ual shut-off valve during pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
Testing for gas leaks
WARNING
NEVER use a flame to check for
gas leaks.
Gas leak tests should be performed before the test-
ing the electric ignition of the burners:
1. Turn on gas supply.
2. Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid (e.g.
soapy water) to all joints and conduits.
3. If bubbles appear, it means there is a leak. Turn
off the gas supply and tighten the connections.
4. Retest for leaks. If no bubbles appear, the test is
passed. Wipe off all residues of detection fluid.
Testing the electric ignition of the
burner
This test should be performed after the range and
supply line connectors have been carefully checked
for leaks and the range connected to the electric
power supply:
1. Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the low
flame position. You will hear the igniter sparking.
2. The surface burner should light when gas is sup-
plied to the cooktop burners. Each burner should
light within four (4) seconds, after air has been
purged from supply lines. Visually check that
burner has lit.
3. Once the burner lights, the control knob should
be rotated out of the low flame position.
4. There are separate ignition devices for each
burner. Try each knob separately and together
until all burner valves have been checked.
