Installation Instructions

Gas Connection

warning

•

Make sure the gas supply valve is off and that the power to

 

the range is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box prior

 

to connecting the gas line.

•

Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas

 

connections and fittings.

•

Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on gas flex line

 

connections.

•

Check for gas leaks as instructed below before using the

 

appliance. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.

•

For LP installations, the LP gas tank must have its own

 

high pressure regulator. This is in addition to the pressure

 

regulator provided with the range.

•

The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must

 

never exceed 1/2 pound per square inch (psi) or 3.5 kPa.

Final Installation

1.Peel the protective plastic coating off of the range, including the range door.

2.Measure from the floor to the countertop.

3.Adjust the leveling legs:

On freestanding units, adjust the leveling legs as required to position the trim around the edge of the cooktop even with or above the countertop.

On self-rimming units, adjust the leveling legs to position the bottom edge of the range top trim slightly above countertop height.

•

The range and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the

 

gas supply piping during any pressure testing exceeding 1/2

 

psi (3.5 kPa).

•

The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping by

 

closing the shut-off valve during any pressure testing at or

 

below 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

•

Be careful not to damage the wires inside the chassis while

pushing the gas line through the access holes.

NOTE: The gas pressure regulator is pre-set at the factory for the type of gas intended for use with the appliance. To verify that the appliance is compatible with the type of gas available, check the product data label (see inside cover for location). Ranges intended for use with LP gas will have “LP” as a part of the model number. Consult your dealer if the range is not compatible with the type of gas supplied.

1.Make sure the gas supply valve is in the off position and power to the range is off.

2.Connect a flexible gas supply line to the gas shut-off valve previously installed on the stub out. The gas line needs to be long enough to allow the range to be pulled out for service.

3.Slide the gas line up through the access holes in the chassis and up to the regulator. Move the wires around inside the access holes to prevent them from catching on the gas line as you push it up.

4.Connect the gas line to the regulator.

4.Locate the anti-tip foot on the back of the range and lower (turn) it until it is 1/16” (2 mm) off the floor.

5.Carefully slide the range into position into the cutout. The anti-tip foot should engage the anti-tip bracket. Using a flashlight look underneath the range and verify that the bracket covers the anti-tip foot.

5.Turn all cooktop control valves to the OFF position.

6.Turn on the gas supply and check all lines and connections for leaks using a soap and water solution.

7.Turn the gas shut- off valve to the off position.
