PRESSURE REGULATOR

Since service pressure may fluctuate with local demand, every gas cooking appliance must be equipped with a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for safe and efficient operation.

The pressure regulator shipped with the appliance has two female threads ½” NPT. The regulator shall be installed properly in order to be accessible when the appliance is installed in its final position.

Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer and comply with the values indicated below:

Natural gas Æ 4.0" W.c.P.

LP/Propane Æ 11.0" W.C.P.

Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1" W.c.P. higher than the manifold pressure in order to check the regulator.

The regulator used on this range can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2 PSI (14.0" W.c.P.) If the line pressure exceeds that amount, a step‐ down regulator is required.

The appliance, its individual shut‐off valve, and the pressure regulator must be disconnected from the gas line during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).

The individual manual shut‐off valve must be in the OFF position during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.45 kPa).

GAS CONVERSION

WARNING!

Before carrying out this operation, disconnect

the appliance from gas and electricity.

Gas conversion shall be conducted by a factory‐

trained professional.

Call the customer service hotline to identify a factory‐trained professional near your home.

The gas conversion procedure for this range includes 6 steps:

1.Pressure regulator

2.Surface burners

3.Adjustment of minimum setting

The conversion is not completed if all 6 steps have not been concluded properly.

Before performing the gas conversion, locate the package containing the replacement nozzle shipped with every range. IMPORTANT: Each nozzle has a number indicating its flow diameter printed on the body. Consult the table on page 20 for matching nozzles to burners.

Save the nozzles removed from the range for future use.

STEP 1: PRESSURE REGULATOR

The pressure regulator supplied with the appliance is a convertible type pressure regulator for use with Natural Gas at a nominal outlet pressure of 4” w.c. or LP gas at a nominal outlet pressure of 11” w.c. and it is pre‐arranged from the factory to operate with one of these gas/pressure as indicated in the labels affixed on the appliance, package and Instruction booklet.

To convert the regulator for use with other liquid propane LP gas:

1.Unscrew by hand the upper cap of the regulator, remove the white plastic attachment from the cap, reverse its direction and screw it again firmly against the cap. The white plastic attachment has arrows indicating the position for natural gas (NAT) and LP gas (LP).

2.Screw by hand the metal cap in the original position on the regulator.
