Gas Connection
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the appliance manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of Natural
(NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) gas is being used.
A exible metal appliance connector used to connect the appliance to the gas supply should be 3 feet/91.4 cm max. in
length for easy installation. In Canada, exible connectors should be single wall metal connectors less than 6 feet/182.9 cm
in length.
WARNINGS:
Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Shut off the main gas supply valve before removing
u
the old cooking appliance (if applicable) and leave it
forget to relight the pilots on other gas appliances
when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the
v
appliance, the use of a CSA certi ed exible metal
appliance connector is recommended unless local
codes require a hard-piped connection. Never reuse
an old connector when installing a new appliance. If
the hard piping method is used, you must carefully
align the pipe.
To prevent gas leaks, use pipe joint compound
resistant to NG gases on all male external pipe
threads.
DANGER:
Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may result in a
fire or explosion.
manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment could cause the valve stems to rub on the control panel, resulting in
a gas leak at the valve.
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa or 12" water column).
Isolate the appliance from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa or 12" water
column).
Installation
Use a exible gas line to connect to the 1/2" tting,
w
located on the bottom right hand corner underneath
the appliance.
When all connections have been made, be sure all
x
appliance controls are in the off position and turn
on the main gas supply valve. Check for gas leaks
by using a 75% water,
25% dish washing soap
solution. If a gas leak
occurs, shut off gas
immediately, tighten all
connections, and retest
for leaks.
