G A S S U P P L Y WARNING

EXPLOSION HAZARD –

Use a new CSA approved gas supply line and install a gas shut-off valve.

Securely tighten all gas con- nections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14 inches water column.

Failure to do so can result in explosion, fire or death.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Range must be connected to a regulated gas supply.

This installation must conform with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installations must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 – latest edition or CANI – B149.1 or 2.

The range is equipped for use with natural gas or LP. It is design certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) for natural or LP gases. The model / serial rating plate, located on the bottom of the control panel assembly just above the oven door on the far right, has information on the type of gas that should be used. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.

Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller size pipe on long runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe joint compounds, suitable for use with LP gas should be used. For LP gas, piping or tubing size can be 1/2" minimum. LP gas suppliers usually determine the size and materials used on the system.

If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 3-foot long, 1/2" or 3/4" ID, flexible metal appliance con- nector is recommended for connect- ing this range to the gas supply line. Do not kink or damage the flexible connector when moving the range. The pipe coming out the bottom of the unit has 1/2" male threads. You will need to determine the fittings required, depending on the size of your gas supply line, flexible metal connector and shut-off valve.

The supply line must be equipped with an approved shut-off 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. Do not block access to the shut-off valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. See illustration.

If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used 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.

The regulator must be checked at a minimum 1-inch (2.5 cm) water column above the set pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for operation and checking the regulator setting.

Natural Gas:

Set pressure 5 inches (11.4 cm)

Supply pressure 7-14 inches (17.8 cm - 35.5 cm) max.

LP Gas:

Set pressure 10 inches (25.4 cm)

Supply pressure 14 inches (35.5 cm)
