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.

a.A GAS CUTOFF VALVE SHOULD BE PUT IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCATION IN THE SUPPLY LINE AHEAD OF THE RANGE, FOR TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF GAS SUPPLY. If range is to be connected to house piping with flexible or semi-rigid metal connectors for gas appliances, CONNECTOR NUTS MUST NOT BE CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO PIPE THREADS. THE CONNECTORS MUST BE INSTALLED WITH ADAPTORS PROVIDED WITH THE CONNECTOR.

b.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.

CAUTION: DO NOT LIFT OR MOVE RANGE BY DOOR HANDLES, OR BACKGUARD.

c.Turn off all pilots and main gas valve of other gas appliances.

d.Turn off main gas valve at meter.

e.Before connecting range, apply pipe thread compound approved for LPG to all threads.

f.Connect range to gas supply at appliance pressure regulator using adaptors supplied with flexible connector. Rigid pipe may also be used. See rating plate for type of gas range has been manufactured for.

g.Turn on main gas valve at meter, and relight pilots at other gas appliances.

h.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.
