36" DUAL FUEL RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Connect Fuel Supply
5.1
Fuel Supply Connection
This appliance must be installed, grounded,
and serviced by a qualified installer or service
technician.
Do not make connections too tight. The regulator
is die cast. Overtightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire
or explosion.
This appliance includes a regulator. The gas supply
line requires the following parts which are not
supplied with the appliance:
•
Manual shutoff valve
•
1/2" nipples (2)
•
1/2" flare union adapter (2)
•
Flexible connector

Figure 13: Fuel supply connection flow
The gas supply line to the shutoff valve should be
1/2"(1.27 cm) or 3/4"(1.9 cm) solid pipe.
Install the gas supply pipe to the pressure
regulator in the order shown in Figure 13. All
connections should be tightened with a wrench.
When using flexible gas conduit on the range,
allow sufficient slack to pull the range outside the
cutout for cleaning or servicing.
Use pipe-joint sealant made for use with Natural
and LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If
flexible connectors are used, be certain connectors
are not kinked.
Do not allow the flexible conduit to get pinched
between the wall and the range.

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.
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 (or soap and water)
at all joints and connections to check for leaks.
Leaks will be indicated by bubbles appearing at
the connections or joints.
All openings in the wall or floor where the range is
to be installed must be sealed.
1.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent
gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
2. Disconnect this 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"(35.56 cm) water column).
3. 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 (3.5 kPa or 14"(35.56 cm)
water column).
