CONVERTING TO PROPANE (LP) GAS OR CONVERTING BACK TO NATURAL GAS FROM PROPANE (LP)

This range leaves the factory set for use with natural gas. If you wan to convert to propane (LP) gas, the conversion must be performed by a qualified propane (LP) gas installer. The conversion orifices and instructions can be found on back of the range.
Keep these instructions and all orifices in case you want to convert back to natural gas.
NOTE: Location varies by model.

GAS SUPPLY

Fire Hazard: Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.

Explosion Hazard: Do not exceed 25 ft-lbs of torque when making gas line connections.
Overtightening may damage the pressure regulator resulting in fire or explosion hazard.

Gas Pressure Regulator
You must use the gas pressure regulator supplied with this range. For proper operations the inlet
Natural Gas:
Minimum pressure: 6" of Water Column
Maximum pressure: 13" of Water Column
Propane (LP) Gas:
Minimum pressure: 11" of Water Column
Maximum pressure: 13" of Water Column

If you are not sure about the inlet pressure contact local gas supplier.
NOTE: A gas shutoff valve is shipped with this range and should be installed at the rear of the range near the floor with the handle facing downward. This shutoff valve is to be used in the event that service is required.
To access the shut-off valve, remove the toe-kick panel and reach under the range.
An optional 1/2" elbow is provided for connection to the range gas inlet.

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the new hook-up has been completed. Don't forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.
If the hard piping method is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be moved after the connection is made.

1. Install a manual 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 1/2" flare union adapter to the 1/2" NPT internal thread at inlet of the shut-off valve on the range. Use a backup wrench on the shut-off valve to avoid damage.
3. Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the house 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 house 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 gas connections to check for leaks in the system.

When using 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 pressures of 1/2 psig or less to pressure test the gas supply system by closing the individual shut-off valve.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than the operating (manifold) pressure as given on rating label of product.

• Once in position, open the door completely. Push the hinge locks back in toward the front frame.

Take care when replacing the oven doors. If the hinge latch is not securely locked, the hinge may snap back and separate. If the hinge separates, you must apply pressure (possibly with your foot) to press it back together and then engage the hinge latch.

CHECK BURNERS

Fire or Explosion Hazard: Do not operate the burner without all burner parts in place.

1. Burners - Place surface burners into corresponding positions on cooktop.
2. Caps - Place caps on proper size burner.
3. Grates - The left and right grates are interchangeable. Place the grates on the cooktop.

CHECK SURFACE BURNERS

Push and turn a knob to the LITE position. A clicking sound indicates proper operation of the ignition system. When lighting any burners, sparks will appear at all burners but gas flows from only the one selected.
Once air is purged from the supply line, burner should light within 4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate the knob out of the LITE position. Try each burner in succession until all burners have been checked.

Quality of Flames
Determine the quality of flames visually. Normal burner flames should look like (A) or (B).

1. Soft blue flames — Normal for natural gas
   
2. Yellow tips on outer cones — Normal for propane (LP) gas
   

Long, bright yellow flames are not formal. Normal flames may show signs of an orange tint when well heated or signs of flickering orange due to particles in the gas or air.

FINALIZE INSTALLATION

Place the burner grates over the burners. The grates should be seated and should not rock.
The griddle is secured with screws. It is designed to be stationary and should not be removed.
The griddle has two leveling screws beneath the rear flue cover that can be used to adjust to the desired slope.

The two inner screws are clamping screws for securing the griddle in place. Loosen these two screws before leveling. Do not remove these two screws.
The two outer screws are leveling screws. Do not remove these two screws. They can be turned to level the griddle or to provide a forward slope to help grease and oils drain away from the food being cooked.
After levling the griddle, hand-tighten the clamping screws; do not over-tighten.

WHEN ALL HOOKUPS ARE COMPLETED

Make sure all controls are left in the off position. Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the range is unobstructed.
Check that all packing materials and tape have been removed. This will include tape on metal panel under control knobs (if applicable), adhesive tape, wire ties, cardboard, and protective plastic. Failure to remove these materials could result in damage to the appliance once the appliance has been turned on and surfaces have heated.
