INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PRESSURE REGULATOR
0 The regulator installed in the range is adjusted at the factory for 5" WC (natural gas) or 10" WC (L.P.) depending on the
customer’s request. Regulators must not be removed.
0 The regulator can withstand a maximum pressure of 1/2 PSIG (14" WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a step-down
regulator will be required.
0 Any adjustment to regulators must be made ONLY BY QUALIFIED service personnel with proper test equipment.
GAS REQUIREMENTS
0 Ensure supplied gas matches the range’s gas type.
0 Natural gas connection is 1/2" N.P.T. minimum 1/2" diameter ex line.
0 Natural gas inlet pressure to measure 7" to 10" W.C.
0 Propane gas connection is 1/2" N.P.T. minimum 1/2" diameter ex line.
0 LP gas inlet pressure to measure 11" to 14" W.C.
0 A step-down regulator is required at the LP (Propane) source to limit a pressure maximum of 14" W.C. to work with the
regulator provided with the LP range.
Check that all gas connections are properly sealed with a suitable gas joint compound.
TEST ALL JOINTS WITH A SOAPY WATER SOLUTION BEFORE LIGHTING THE BURNERS.
1. Turn ON the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas supply line.
2. Remove the kick plate by lifting and pulling away from the unit.
3. Check for gas leaks at the exible coupling or gas connector tting using a solution of one part soap and three parts water.
4. Sparingly spray or brush the soapy solution at the gas ttings; active bubbling indicates location of gas leak.
5. If a gas leak is detected turn off the manual gas valve at the inlet side of the gas line. Call your certied service technician.
FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS, CONNECTORS AND CASTERS
0 Flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect ttings must be heavy duty, CSA/UL design certied of at least 1/2" NPT with
suitable strain reliefs.
0 The exible connector must comply with the standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69-CSA 6.16
and any Quick-Disconnect Devices For Use With Gas Fuel Appliances should comply with ANSI Z21.41CSA 6.9.
0 All connections must be sealed with joint compound specied for LP or Natural gas; and all connections must be tested with a
soapy water solution before using.
0 When disconnection of the restraint is necessary, make sure to reconnect restraint after the range has been returned to its
original position.
