INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION, SERVICE, MAINTENANCE OR USE
OF RANGE WHICH CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Gas Supply
Installation of this range must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 latest edition.
In Canada, the range must be installed in accordance with the current CGA Standard CAN/CGA-
B149 – Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local codes.
NOTE: A trained serviceman or gas appliance installer must make the gas supply connection. Leak
testing of the appliance must be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given
in section (h).
The natural gas supply line must have a natural service regulator. Inlet pressure to this appliance
should be reduced to a maximum of 7 inches water column (W.C.). Liquefied Petroleum L.P. /
Propane gas supply line must have a L.P. gas pressure regulator. Inlet pressure to this appliance
should be reduced to a maximum of 14 inches W.C.
Inlet pressure in excess of 14 in. W.C. can damage the appliance pressure regulator or other gas
components in this appliance, and can result in a gas leak.
1. A manual gas valve should be put in an accessible location in the supply line ahead of the
appliance, for turning on and turning off the gas supply. If oven is to be connected to house
piping with flexible or semi-rigid metal connectors for gas appliances, the connector nuts must
not be connected directly to pipe threads. The connectors must be installed with adapters
provided with the connector.
2. The house piping and/or range connector used to connect the oven to the main gas supply must
be clean, free of metal shavings, rust, dirt, and liquids (oil or water). Dirt in the supply lines can
work its way into the range manifold and in turn, cause failure of the gas valves or controls and
clog burners and/or pilot orifices.
CAUTION: Do not lift or move the oven by the door handle.
3. Turn off all pilots and the main gas valve of other gas appliances.
4. Turn off the main gas valve at meter.
5. Before connecting the oven, apply pipe thread compound approved for LPG to all threads.
6. Connect range to gas supply at the appliance pressure regulator using adapters supplied with
the flexible connector. Rigid pipe may also be used. See rating plate for type of gas range has
been manufactured for.
7. Turn on main gas valve at the meter, and relight the pilots of other gas appliances.
8. 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
