Provide Adequate Gas Supply

PREPARATION

o Remove all tape and packaging.

o Remove plastic film that covers some chrome parts (around oven door, side trim)..

°Take the accessory pack out of the oven.

°Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose during shipping.

STEP 1

Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 4" (t02 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" (I0.2 cm) and 13" (33 cm) of water column.. For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between t0" (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 1" (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 1.D..of 112" and be 5 feet (!_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'tforget 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 AGA.-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.
