Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Check for Leaks

When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in the off position and turn on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.

CAUTION: Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test the gas supply system of the residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply system by closing the individual shut-off valve.

Checking Manifold Gas Pressure

Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning

If it should be necessary to check the manifold gas pressure, connect manometer (water gauge) or other pressure device to the top burner orifice farthest from the manifold inlet and turn burner valve on.

For an accurate pressure check, have at least

2 other top burners burning. Be sure the gas supply inlet pressure is at least one inch above specified range manifold pressure.

The gas supply pressure should never be over 14 inches W.C. When properly adjusted for natural gas, the W.C. pressure is 4 inches; for LP gas, the W.C. pressure is 10 inches. The range was factory adjusted for use with natural gas. It may have been converted for use with LP gas in step 2.
