AInstall a manual shut-off valve in the gas supply line in an easily accessible location.

BKnow how and where to shut off the gas supply to the range.

CShut off gas supply before removing an old range. Leave it off until hookup of new range is finished.

DBecause solid pipe restricts moving the range, we recommend use of a C.S.A. certified flexible metal appliance connector.

Manual background WARNING: Never reuse old flexible connectors. The use of old flexible connectors can cause gas leaks and personal injury. Always use new flexible connectors when installing a gas appliance.

EBefore making gas connections, make sure that the oven shut-off lever (visible at the back of range) is in the open position.

ITo prevent gas leaks, put a pipe joint sealant or Teflon® tape on all male threads. NOTE: Make sure sealant or tape is compatible with Natural and LP gases.

JWhen you are finished making connections, be sure that all range knobs are turned to OFF before you open the main gas supply valve.

Manual background WARNING: Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks. Use liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
