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.

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.
