Usea new AGA or CSA approved gas supply line.
Install a shut=offvalve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP,have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 14" water column.
Examples of a qualified person include licensed heating
personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
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 CAN/CGA-B149 --
latest edition* installation codes.
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For assistance when
installing the range at higher elevations, contact your local
service company.
Type of gas: This range is design-certified by CSA
International for use with Natural gas or, after proper
conversion, for use with L. P.gas. This range is factory set
for use with Natural gas. Gas conversion instructionsare
provided on pages 13-15. The model/serial rating plate
located on the frame behind the storage drawer or broiler
door has information on the type of gas that can be used. If
the type of gas listed does not agree with the type of gas
available, check with the local gas supplier. Conversion
must be done by a qualified service technician.
Gas supply line: Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" rigid pipe
to the range location. With L.R gas, piping or tubing size can
be 1/2" minimum. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may
result in insufficientgas supply. Usually, LR gas suppliers
determine the size and materials used in the system.
Pipe-joint compounds made for use with L.R gas must be
used on pipe threads only.
Flexible metal appliance connector: If local codes permit, a
newAGA or 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
female pipe threads. Do Not kink or damage the flexible
metal tubing when moving the range.
Rigid pipe _, , ,==
connection: I I! - -
Requires a _
combination of pipe
fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the range. _
All strains must be removed from the supply and 111 'II
fuel lines so range will be level and in line. I_I
manual shutoff valve __
"open" position .___
Shutoff valve:The supply line must be equipped with a man-
ual 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.
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:
NATURAL GAS:
Minimum pressure: 5 inchesW.C.
Maximum pressure: 14 inchesW.C.
L.P.GAS:
Minimum pressure: 11inchesW.C.
Maximum pressure: 14 inchesW.C.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
pressure.
Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi gauge
(14"WCP)--The range and its individual manual 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
(14"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).
