Gas Supply Requirement
The use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in a potential burn hazard. Combustible items may
ignite; metallic items may become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be
reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7cm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
Connect Range to Gas Supply
1. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location outside the
range in the gas piping external to the appliance for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas
to the appliance.
Install male ½-inch flare union adapter to ½-inch NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of regulator. On
models equipped with standard twin burners, install the male pipe thread end of the ½-inch flare
union adapter to the ½-inch NPT internal thread at inlet of pressure regulator. Use a wrench on the
regulator fitting to avoid damage.
2. Install male ½-inch or

-inch flare union adapter to the NPT internal thread of the manual
shut-off valve, taking care to secure the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.
3. The gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting is 6 in.w.c. (Nature Gas) and 11
inch.w.c. (LP gas) connect flexible gas line connector to the regulator on the range. Position range
to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
4. When all connections have been made, make sure all range controls are in the position and
turn on main gas supply valve.
5. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Use some soap water (50% water and 50% soap) or a leak detector at all joints and connections
to check for leaks in the system. Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.
6. 6.The appliance must be isolated from the building’s gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressure equal to or less than
1
/
2
psig(3.5kPa).
After installation:
1. Check ignition of cooktop burners.
2. Check ignition of oven burner.
3. Visually check tubular burner (oven burner) re-ignition to be sure both rows of burner ports are
relighting each time.
4. Check for gas leaks at all gas connections (using a gas detector, never a flame).
5. Check oven bake, and convection bake function.
