Installation Instructions

CONNECTING THE RANGE (cont)

Gas Supply

Installation of this range must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1- latest edition. In Canada the range must be installed in accordance with the current CGA Standard CAN/CGA-B149 - Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local codes.

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.

W A R N I N G

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 manufacturer’s instructions.

GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION

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 in Step 7.

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.

CAUTION: NEVER CHECK FOR LEAKS WITH A FLAME. WHEN LEAK CHECK IS COMPLETE, WIPE OFF ALL RESIDUE.

NATURAL GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A NATURAL GAS SERVICE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH (P.S.I.) LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.)/PROPANE GAS SUPPLY LINE MUST HAVE A L.P. GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR. INLET PRESSURE TO THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE REDUCED TO A MAXIMUM OF 14 INCHES WATER COLUMN (0.5 P.S.I.). INLET PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 0.5 P.S.I. CAN DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE PRESSURE REGULATOR AND OTHER GAS COMPONENTS IN THIS APPLIANCE AND CAN RESULT IN A GAS LEAK.

Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1” water column pressure above manifold pressure shown on serial plate.

Check Pressure of House Piping System

1.The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa) (13.8 in. water column).

2.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 lbs./sq. in. (3.5 kPa)

(13.8 in. water column).

A GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE SHOULD BE PUT IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCATION IN THE SUPPLY LINE AHEAD OF THE RANGE, FOR TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF GAS SUPPLY. CONNECTOR NUTS MUST NOT BE CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO PIPE THREADS. THE CONNECTORS MUST BE INSTALLED WITH ADAPTORS PROVIDED WITH THE CONNECTOR.

The house piping and/or range connector used to connect the range to the main gas supply must be clean, free of metal shavings, rust, dirt and liquids (oil or water). Dirt, etc. in the supply lines can work its way into the range manifold and in turn cause failure of the gas valves or controls and clog burners and/or pilot orifices.

NOTE: It is recommended to use a new CSA certified 1/2” flexible connector no longer than 36” (91.4 cm) with a minimum BTU/HR rating of 60,000 be used. Rigid pipe may also be used.

HOW TO REMOVE RANGE FOR SERVICING

Follow these procedures to remove appliance for servicing:

1. Slide range forward to disengage range from the anti-tip bracket.

2. Shut off gas supply to appliance.

3. Disconnect electrical supply to appliance, if equipped.

4. Disconnect gas supply tubing to appliance.

5. Reverse procedure to reinstall. If gas line has been disconnected, check for gas leaks after reconnection.

6. To prevent range from accidentally tipping, range must be secured to the floor by sliding rear leveling leg into the anti-tip bracket.

NOTE: A qualified servicer should disconnect and reconnect the gas supply. The servicer MUST follow installation instructions provided with the gas appliance connector and the warning label attached to the connector.
