Making the L.P. Gas Conversion

J1 Know what needs to be converted

The pressure regulator and the burner orifices are set for natural gas. To use liquid propane gas, the regulator and burner orifices must be converted.

The L.P. orifice spuds for the cooktop burners can be located within a bracket located behind the storage drawer of this unit.

Do not operate the cooktop or oven burners of this range when using L.P. (bottled) gas before converting the

pressure regulator and burner orifices for L.P. gas use. Failure to do so could cause high flames and toxic fumes which can result in serious injury.

WARNING: This conversion must be performed by a qualified installer or gas supplier in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.

To adjust your range for use with L.P. gas, follow these instructions:

1.Disconnect all electrical power at the main circuit breaker or fuse box.

2.Shut off the gas supply to the range by closing the manual shut-off valve.
