Installation Of Appliance

Follow accompanying ducting instructions carefully.

This appliance is designed to always be vented outdoors. This appliance should be ducted separately from other vented appliances.

This appliance is designed for use with the gas appliance pressure regulator provided.

The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 USA or current CAN/CGA-B149 INSTALLATION CODE.

In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts

This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

A “T” handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the gas supply line to this appliance.

A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed a length of three (3) feet / 36 inches.

This appliance is designed to operate at a pressure of 5 inches of water column on natural gas or, if converted for use with LP gas (propane or butane), 10 inches of water column. Make sure this appliance is supplied with the type of gas for which it is designed.

This appliance was adjusted at the factory for use with natural gas. If, in the future, this appliance is to be used on a different type of gas, all of the conversion adjustments described on pages 4 and 5 must be made by a service technician or other qualified person before attempting to operate the cooktop on that gas. Natural gas should be supplied to the appliance at a line pressure between 6 and 14 inches of water column or, if converted for LP gas, between 11 and 14 inches.

WARNING: If the pressure of the gas system supplying this appliance exceeds 14￿ W.C., an external regulator (not provided) must be installed in the gas line to reduce the system pressure to no more than 14￿ W.C. Failure to do this can result in excessive gas flow and explosion.

Make sure your appliance is supplied with the type of gas for which it is adjusted and that the gas is being supplied within the appropriate pressure range.

Connecting Appliance To Gas Supply

A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN OR GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given.

1.Install a manual shut-off valve in an accessible location in the gas line external to this appliance for the purpose of shutting off gas supply to this appliance.

2.Install the appliance pressure regulator supplied with this appliance to the threaded gas inlet of the manifold pipe, taking care to observe proper direction of gas flow through the regulator. Tighten to 20 to 30 ft.-lbs. of torque.

3.Connect the inlet of the appliance pressure regulator to the shut-off valve using a 1/2￿ NPT pipe nipple of appropriate length and additional pipe fittings, as required.

Use an approved pipe joint compound that is resistant to the action of LP gas on all external pipe threads when making these connections.

Anew, A.G.A.-certified, flexible metal appliance connector may be used to connect this appliance to the gas supply (figure 3.) The flexible connector should have a diameter of 1/2￿ flare union adapter is required at each end of the flexible connector. CAUTION: Do not attempt to attach the flexible connector directly to an external pipe thread.

IMPORTANT

Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas connection between the supply line shut-off valve and the range. Include gas fittings and joints in the range if connections were disturbed during installation. Check for leaks! Bubbles appearing around fittings and connections will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, turn off supply line gas shut-off valve, tighten connections, turn on the supply line gas shut off valve, and retest for leaks. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.

NOTE: In Canada, gas utilization codes prohibit use of street elbows. Use standard pipe elbows and make modifications to these instructions as necessary.

In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts WARNING

Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
