Installation Of Appliance
Follow accompanying ducting instructions carefully.
This appliance is designed to always be vented outdoors.
This appliance should be ducted separately from other
vented appliances.
This appliance is designed for use with the gas appliance
pressure regulator provided.
The installation of this appliance must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 USA or
current CAN/CGA-B149 INSTALLATION CODE.
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.
This appliance is designed to operate at a pressure of 5
inches of water column on natural gas or, if converted for
use with LP gas (propane or butane), 10 inches of water
column. Make sure this appliance is supplied with the type
of gas for which it is designed.
This appliance was adjusted at the factory for use with
natural gas. If, in the future, this appliance is to be used on
a different type of gas, all of the conversion adjustments
described on pages 4 and 5 must be made by a service
technician or other qualified person before attempting to
operate the cooktop on that gas. Natural gas should be
supplied to the appliance at a line pressure between 6 and
14 inches of water column or, if converted for LP gas,
between 11 and 14 inches.
WARNING: If the pressure of the gas system
supplying this appliance exceeds 14² W.C., an external
regulator (not provided) must be installed in the gas line
to reduce the system pressure to no more than 14² W.C.
Failure to do this can result in excessive gas flow and
explosion.
Make sure your appliance is supplied with the type of gas
for which it is adjusted and that the gas is being supplied
within the appropriate pressure range.
Connecting Appliance To Gas Supply
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.
1. Install a manual shut-off valve in an accessible location in
the gas line external to this appliance for the purpose of
shutting off gas supply to this appliance.
2. Install the appliance pressure regulator supplied with this
appliance to the threaded gas inlet of the manifold pipe,
taking care to observe proper direction of gas flow
through the regulator. Tighten to 20 to 30 ft.-lbs. of
torque.
3. Connect the inlet of the appliance pressure regulator to
theshut-offvalveusinga1/2² NPT pipe nipple of
appropriate length and additional pipe fittings, as
required.
Use an approved pipe joint compound that is resistant to
the action of LP gas on all external pipe threads when
making these connections.
A new, A.G.A.-certified, flexible metal appliance connector
may be used to connect this appliance to the gas supply
(figure 3.) The flexible connector should have a diameter of
1/2² flare union adapter is required at each end of the
flexible connector. CAUTION: Do not attempt to attach the
flexible connector directly to an external pipe thread.
IMPORTANT
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. Never test for gas leaks with an
open flame.
NOTE: In Canada, gas utilization codes prohibit use of
street elbows. Use standard pipe elbows and make
modifications to these instructions as necessary.
WARNING
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 the manufacturer’s instructions.
