Step t
Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of
4" (10.2 cm) of water column on natural gas or, if
designed for LP gas (propane or butane), 10" (25+4
cm) of water column. Make sure you are supplying
your range with the type of gas for which it is
designed. This range is convertible for use on natural
or propane gas, if you decide to use this range on a
different type of gas, conversion adjustments must be
made by a service technician or other qualified person
before attempting to operate the range on that gas.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas sup-
plied to the regulator must be between 4" (10o2 cm)
and 13" (33 cm) of water column, For LP gas, the
pressure supplied must be between 10" (25°4 cm) and
13" (33 cm) of water column. When checking for prop-
er operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must
be at least 1" (2.5 cm) greater than the operating
(manifold) pressure as given above. The pressure
regulator located at the inlet of the range manifold
must remain in the supply line regardless of whether
natural or LP gas is being used. A flexible metal appli-
ance connector used to connect the range to the gas
supply line should have an I.D. of t/2" and be 5 feet
(1.5 m) in length for ease of installation,, In Canada,
flexible connectors must be single wall metal connec-
tors no longer than 6 feet (1.8 m) in length°
Step 2
Connect the Range to Gas
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnect-
ing the old range and leave it off until new hook-up
has been completed. Don't forget to relight the
pilot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas
back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,
the use of an A.GoA_-certified flexible metal appliance
connector is recommended unless local codes require
a hard-piped connection. Never use an old connector
when installing a new range. If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the range
cannot be moved after the connection is made,
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or
wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around all male
(external) pipe threads.
