1. Open lower door panel.
2. Route flexible gas line (provided by
installer) from equipment shutoff
valve to burner system. Route flexible
gas supply line through slot in stove
bottom and attach to valve.
3. Check all gas connections for leaks.

CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS
Warning: Test all gas piping and
connections
for
installing or servicing. Correct all
leaks at once.
WARNING: Never use an open
flame to check for a leak. Apply
commercial leak test solution to all
gas joints. Bubbles forming show a
leak. Correct all leaks at once.

Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping
System
Note: The appliance and its appliance main
leaks
after

supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psi. (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its
equipment
pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psi. (3.5 kPa).
Test Pressures In Excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5
kPa)
1. Disconnect

valve) and equipment shutoff valve
from gas supply piping systems.

Check reconnected fittings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than
1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
