CONNECTING APPLIANCE TO GAS SUPPLY (CONT)
Check Pressure of House Piping System
1.The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column).
2.The appliance must be isolated 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 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column).
This appliance is designed to operate at a pressure of 5 inches of water column on natural gas or, if converted for use with LP gas (propane or butane), 10 inches water column.
Insure this appliance is adjusted for the type of gas supplied to it and that the gas supply pressure to the appliance regulator is within the proper pressure range.
W A R N I N G
If the line pressure supplying the appliance pressure regulator exceeds 14” W.C. (any gas), the external regulator must be installed in the gas line ahead of the appliance regulator to reduce the pressure to no more than 14” W.C. Failure to do this can result in malfunction and damage to the appliance.

INSTALLATION OF APPLIANCE
C A U T I O N
Warranty is void on Jenn-Air equipment installed other than as recommended by manufacturer.
The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition, or, in Canada, CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code, Latest Edition.
In The Commonwealth of Massachusetts:
This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed a length of three (3) feet/36 inches.
C A U T I O N
This appliance was adjusted at the factory for use with natural gas. If, at any time, this appliance is to be used with a different type of gas, all of the conversion adjustments described in the instructions given must be made by a qualified service technician before attempting to operate the cooktop on that gas. Natural gas should be supplied to the appliance pressure regulator at a line pressure between 6 and 14 inches of water column or, if converted for LP gas, between 11 and 14 inches.
NOTE: Save all parts removed during conversion.
W A R N I N G
ELECTRICAL POWER AND GAS MUST BE TURNED OFF PRIOR TO CONVERSION.
Never tighten appliance regulator to more than 35 ft-lbs of torque. Always use an approved pipe joint compound resistant to the action of LP gas.
W A R N I N G
Propane conversion is to be performed by a JENN-AIR AUTHORIZED SERVICER (or other qualified agency) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for this conversion.
This appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition, or, in Canada, current CSA Standard C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
Follow accompanying ducting instructions carefully. This appliance is designed to always be vented outdoors. The Countertop Cutout, Cabinet Front Cutout and Duct Opening should be prepared according to the illustration in the instructions given.
Locate appliance away from combustible materials such as window curtains or wall decorations.
Never cover control knobs or surrounding control surface with uten- sils, towels, or other objects. Never obstruct free air passage past the control knobs. The knob openings have been sized to properly control air entry to the interior of the appliance during operation.
C A U T I O N
NEVER USE A METAL BLADE TO PRY KNOB OFF. IF KNOB CANNOT BE EASILY REMOVED, TUCK THE FOLDS OF A CLOTH DISHTOWEL UNDER THE KNOB AND PULL THE TOWEL UPWARD WITH STEADY, EVEN PRESSURE.
ELECTRICAL WIRING INFORMATION
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounded type power cord. A grounded outlet must be provided. It is recommended that the outlet be located as illustrated in the instructions.
If the outlet is to be mounted in either a left or a right adjacent cabinet, a clearance hole (1-1/2” – 3.18 cm) must be provided in the dividing wall between the cabinets. NOTE: The free length of the appliance’s power cord is approximately 46 inches. In planning the location of the clearance hole and outlet, the cord’s length should be considered.

CONNECTING APPLIANCE TO GAS SUPPLY
A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN OR GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given.
Gas supply piping MUST conform to all local, municipal and state building codes and local utility regulations.
NOTE: In Canada, gas utilization codes prohibit use of street elbows. Use standard pipe elbows and make modification to these instructions as necessary.
All supply piping, except as noted, should use common National Pipe Thread (N.P.T.). For all pipe connections use an approved pipe joint compound resistant to the action of LP gas.
This appliance is designed for use with the appliance gas pressure regulator supplied with this appliance. It must be installed in the gas line ahead of the gas manifold entrance. It is preset for use with natural gas and must be converted, as described in the instructions given, for use with LP(propane) gas
A GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE SHOULD BE PUT IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCATION IN THE SUPPLY LINE AHEAD OF THE RANGE, FOR TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF GAS SUPPLY.
W A R N I N G
Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
I M P O R T A N T
C H E C K F O R G A S L E A K S !
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas connection between the supply line shut-off valve and the range. Include gas fittings and joints in the range if connections were disturbed during installation. Bubbles appearing around fittings and connections will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, turn off supply line gas shut-off valve,tighten connections, turn-on the gas supply line and retest for leaks. When leak check is complete, wipe off all residue.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM ITS
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THE WALL RECEPTACLE BEFORE
SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.
NOTE: User may experience some occasional circuit tripping if Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet or breaker is in use.
