Flexible metal appliance connector: If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 1/2" or 3/4" I.D., flexible metal appliance connector is recommended for connecting range to the gas supply line. A 1/2" male pipe thread nipple is needed for connection to pressure regulator connection fitting. Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the range.

shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi gauge (3.5 kPa) [14" (35.6 cm) WCP] or lower — The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures equal to or less than

1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.

Rigid pipe connection: Requires a combination of pipe fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line.

Shutoff valve: The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the range and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the range. Do not block access to shutoff valve.

1.Do not use oven door handle to lift or move the range.

2.Remove oven racks and parts package from inside oven. Remove shipping materials, tape and protective film from range.

3.Keep cardboard shipping base under range to prevent damage to floor covering.

Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

Contact a qualified floor covering installer for the best procedure for drilling mounting holes through your type floor covering.

4.Use the anti-tip bracket template/instruction sheet to install the anti-tip bracket.

Anti-tip bracket must be anchored securely to the sub floor.

Depending on the thickness of your flooring, longer screws may be needed to anchor the bracket to the sub

floor. Longer screws are available from your local hardware store.

5.Check that range is still on cardboard shipping base to protect floor

Pressure regulator: The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:

L.P. GAS:

Minimum pressure:

11 inches (27.9 cm) WCP Maximum pressure:

14 inches (35.6 cm) WCP

NATURAL GAS:

Minimum pressure:

5 inches (12.7 cm) WCP Maximum pressure:

14 inches (35.6 cm) WCP

Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.

Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi gauge (3.5 kPa) [14" (35.6 cm) WCP] — The range and its individual manual
