Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of
4" of water column on natural gas or, if designed for
LP gas (propane or butane), 10" of water column.
Make sure you are supplying your range with the type
of gas for which it is designed This range is convert-
ible for use on natural or propane gas, if you decide to
use this range on a different type of gas, conversion
adjustments must be made by a service technician or
other qualified person before attempting to operate
the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas sup-
plied to the regulator must be between 4" and 13" of
water column. For LP gas, the pressure supplied must
be between 10" and 13" of water column. When
checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet
pressure must be at least 1" greater than the operat-
ing (manifold) pressure as given above The pressure
regulator located at the inlet of the range manifold
must remain in the supply line regardless of whether
natural or LP gas is being used.. A flexible metal appli-
ance connector used to connect the range to the gas
supply line should have an 1..D.of 1/2" and be 5 feet in
length for ease of instatlation.

Connect the Range to Gas
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnect-
ing the old range and leave it off until 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 an AG.A.-certified flexible metal appliance
connector is recommended unless local codes require
a hard-piped connection. Never use an old connector
when installing a new range.. If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range
cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or
wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all male
(external) pipe threads.
