Make Gas Connection - KitchenAid KSDB900ESS Owner's Manual

3-Wire Connection: Direct Wire
Use this method only if local codes permit connecting ground
conductor to neutral supply wire.
1. Pull the wires through the conduit on cord/conduit plate on
bottom of range. Allow enough slack to easily attach the wiring
to the terminal block.

2. Attach terminal lugs to line 2 (red), bare (green) ground, and
line 1 (black) wires. Loosen (do not remove) the setscrew on
the front of the terminal lug and insert exposed wire end
through bottom of terminal lugs. Securely tighten setscrew to
torque as shown in the following Bare Wire Torque

4. Connect line 2 (red) and line 1 (black) wires to the outer
terminal block posts with 10-32 hex nuts.
5. Using a torque wrench, tighten the hex nuts to a
recommended torque of 20 in-lbs (2.3 N-m).
6. Securely tighten hex nuts.
IMPORTANT: Verify the tightness of the hex nuts.
7. Replace terminal block access cover.
8. Reconnect power.

Make Gas Connection

Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to propane, have a qualified person make
sure gas pressure does not exceed 14ʺ (36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating
personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
This range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. To use this
range with Propane gas, see the "Gas Conversions" section
before connecting this range to the gas supply. Gas conversions
from Natural gas to Propane gas or from Propane gas to Natural
gas must be done by a qualified installer.
Typical Flexible Connection
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with Propane gas to
the smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters.
