Conversion to Propane Gas (LPG)
Always provide adequate gas supply.
This appliance is shipped from the factory for use with
natural gas. Use this kit to convert the appliance for
propane gas use if necessary. Observe the following:
Ensure that the range is converted for use with the
appropriate gas before using it.
This appliance is designed to operate at a pressure of
10" of the water column when used with propane gas.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the
inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than the
operating (manifold) pressure above. When converting
for propane gas use, the pressure supplied to the
regulator must be between 11" and 13" of the water
column.
The pressure regulator that is located in the inlet of the
range manifold must remain in the supply line.
Use a flexible metal appliance connector or rigid pipe to
connect the range to the gas supply. The connector
should have an inner diameter of 1/2" and be 5 ft
(1.5 m) or less in length. (Exception: Maximum connector
length in Massachusetts installations is 3 ft (0.9 m)). In
Canada, the connector must be single-wall metal and not
longer than 6 ft (1.8 m).
Save the orifices removed from the appliance for future
use.
CAUTION

The gas supply shall be shut off prior to
disconnecting the electrical power, before
proceeding with the conversion.
