LP/Propane
Gas Conversion
This appliance can be used with Natural gas or LID/
Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with
natural gas.
If you wish to convert your range for use with LID/
Propane gas, use the supplied fixed orifices located in a
bag containing the literature marked "FOR LP/PROPANE
GAS CONVERSION." Follow the instructions packaged
with the orifices for surface, oven and broil burners

position
Figure 6
The supply line should be equipped with an approved
shutoff valve (see Figure 6). This valve should be located
in the same room as the range and should be in a
location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not
block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning
on or shutting off gas to the appliance. Once regulator
is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line.
Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.
Check for leaks, After connecting the range to the gas
supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If
a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and
use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints
and connections to check for leaks.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks from
gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may
result in a fire or explosion.
The conversion must be performed by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions and all local codes and requirements. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in serious injury
or property damage. The qualified agency performing
this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Failure to make the appropriate
conversion can result in personal injury and property
damage.

for
Servicing
and
Cleaning
Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the
main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off
valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service
drawer (warmer drawer on some models) and open the
oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out
of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain
on the flexible gas conduit. Make sure not to pinch
the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when
replacing the unit into the cut-out opening. Replace
the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical
power and gas to the range.
Tighten
all connections
if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Isolate the range from the gas supply piping
system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or
14"(35,56 cm) water column).
