40" DUAL FUEL RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning
on or shutting off gas to the appliance.Open the shutoff
valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas
to move through the gas line.
The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the
regulator may be connected by rigid piping or by C.S.A.
approved flexible metallic union connected piping where
local codes permit use.
The gas supply piping can be through the side wall
of the right cabinet. The right side cabinet is an ideal
location for the main shutoff valve.
Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.
Assemble the flexible conduit from the gas supply pipe
to the pressure regulator in this order:
1- manual shutoff valve, 2- flare union adapter,
3- flexible conduit, 4- flare union adapter,
5- pressure regulator.
The gas supply line to the shutoff valve should be
1/2" or 3/4" solid pipe.
The user must know the location of the main shutoff
valve and have easy access to it.
When using flexible gas conduit on the range, allow
sufficient slack to pull the range outside the cutout for
cleaning or servicing.
NOTE: Do not allow the flexible conduit to get pinched
between the wall and the range. To visually check,
remove the range drawer.
Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and
LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible
conduit is used, be certain that it is not kinked.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Check for leaks. After connecting the range to the gas
supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If
a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and
use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to
check for leaks.
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.
All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be
installed must be sealed.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
(Models with Electric Ovens and Gas Cooktop)
Check alignment of valves after connecting the
cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe
has not been moved.
Disconnect the range and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).
LP/Propane Gas Conversion
This appliance can be used with Natural Gas or Propane
Gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas.
If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/Propane
gas, use the supplied fixed orifices; they are contained in
a special bag along with instructions marked "FOR LP/
PROPANE GAS CONVERSION", located on the back of
the range, close to the appliance regulator valve.
The conversion must be performed by a qualified installer,
LP supplier or service technician in accordance with the
installation instructions furnished with this range and all
codes and requirements of all local codes and requirements.
Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or
property damage. The qualified agency performing this work
assumes responsibility for the conversion.
Failure to make the appropriate conversion
can result in personal injury and property damage.
Any additions, changes or conversions
required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet
the application needs must be made by an authorized
Sears Service Center, Distributor or Qualified Agency.
Moving the Appliance for Servicing and
Cleaning
Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the
main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off
valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service
drawer and open the oven door. Lift the range at the
front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without
creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit.
Isolate the range from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa or 14"
water column).
Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the
back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-
out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and
switch on the electrical power and gas to the range.
If the pressure regulator is connected to rigid piping,
the regulator must be disconnected before moving the
appliance.
Reassemble in reverse order (see figure 9).
