The gas connection is located below the back panel of the range
(See Figure 4, Page 4). It is accessible through the warming
drawer access panel or from the back of the range. To reach
access panel, remove warming drawer.
Shut off main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range
and leave it off until the new hook-up has been completed. Don't
forget to re[ight the pilot on other gas appliances when
you turn the gas back on.
The range can be installed using rigid pipe or a CSA InternationaF
certified flexible metal appliance connector. If using a flexible
connector, always use a new connector.
Apply pipe joint compound orTeflon* tape appropriate for use
with LP gas and Natural gas around all male pipe threads to
prevent leaks.
If not already present, install gas shut off valve in an easily
accesible location. Make sure all users know where and how to
shut off the gas supply to the range.
Note: The installer should inform the consumer of the
location of the gas shutooff valve.
Flexible Connector Method
(seeFigure 11,this page)
!. Instal[ male !/2" flare adaptor at the 1/2" NPT internal
thread of the range inlet. Use a backup wrench on the
elbow fitting to avoid damage.
2. Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter on the NPT
internal thread of the manual shut-off valve.
3. Connectfiexible metal appliance connector.
4. Make sure drcuit breaker is off and then plug range cord in
to electrical outlet.
5. Push range back into position insuring that range leg slides
under the anti-tip bracket. The range will sit 3/4" away
from the wall when properly installed. Note: Be careful not
to crimp flexible connector!
6. Carefully tip range forward to insure that antFtip bracket
engages and prevents tip-over.
Rigid PipeMethod (seeFigure 12_this page)
The configuration of the rigid pipe connection will vary depending
on the location of the gas pipe stub, Refer to Figure !2 for
details,
1. Make sure circuit breaker is off and then plug range cord in
to electrical outlet,
2. Push range back into position insuring that range leg slides
under the anti-tip bracket. The range will sit 3/4" away
from the wall when properly installed.
3. Carefully tip range forward to insure that anti-tip bracket
engages and prevents tip-over.
4. Connect pipe to range at union. Access the connection
through the access panel behind the warming drawer.
Test for Gas Leaks,
Leak testing is to be conducted by the installer according to the
instructions given in this section.
Turn on Gas. Apply a non<orrosive leak detection fluid to all
joints and fittings in the gas connection between the shut-off
valve and the range. Include gas fittings and joints in the
range if connections were disturbed during installation.
IBubb[es appearing around fittings and connections
indicate a leak.
If a leak appears, turn off supply line gas shut-offvalve and
tighten connections. Retest for leaks by turning on the supply
line gas shut-off valve. When leak check is complete (no
bubbles appear), test is complete. Wipe off all detection fluid
residue. Proceed to Step 6: Test the Installation
