PREPARATION
° Remove
all tape and packaging.
Lift up the cooktop
(on models
with standard
twin burners)
and remove
any pacldng
material
under
it. Make sure the standard
twin burners
are properly
seated
and level.
° Remove
plastic
film that covers some chrome
parts
(around
oven door, side trim).
° Take the accessory
pack out of the oven.
o Check
to be sure that
no range parts have come loose
during
shipping.
STEP
I
Provide Adequate
Gas Supply
Your range is designed
to operate
at a pressure
of
4" (10.2 cm) of water column
on natural
gas or, if
designed
for LP gas (propane
or butane),
10"
(25.4 cm)
of water column.
Make
sure you are supplying
your
range with the type of gas for which
it is designed.
This range is convertible
for use on natural
or propane
gas. If you decide
to use this range on LP gas,
conversion
must be made
by a qualified
LP installer
before attempting
to operate
the range on that gas.
For proper
operation,
the pressure
of natural
gas
supplied
to the regulator
must be between
4" (10.2 cm)
and 13" (33 cm) of water
column.
For LP gas, the
pressure
supplied
must
be between
10"
(25.4 cm)
and
13" (33 cm) of water
column.
When
checking
for
proper
operation
of the regulator,
the inlet pressure
must be at least I" (2.5 cm) greater
than the operating
(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
appliance
connector
used to connect
the range to the
gas supply
line should
have an I.D. of 1/2" and be
5 feet (1.5 m) in length
for ease of installation.
In
Canada,
flexible
connectors
must
be single wall metal
connectors
no longer
than 6 feet (1.8 m) in length.
STEP
2
Connect
the
Range to Gas
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting
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 A.G.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, use pipe joint compound
or
wrap Teflon*
pipe thread
tape around
all male
(external)
pipe threads.
