PREPARATION
• Remove
all tape and packaging°
Lift up the cooktop
(on models
with standard
twin burners)
and remove
any pacldng
material
under
it. Make
sure the
standard
twin burners
are properly
seated and level.
• Remove
plastic
film that covers
some chrome
parts
(around
oven door, side trim).
° 'Take the accessory
pack out of' the oven.
o Check
to be sure that no range parts
have come
loose
during
shipping.
STEP
1
Provide
Adequate
Gas Supply
"Yourrange is designed
to operate
at a pressure of 4"
(10.2 cm) of water column
on natural
gas or, if designed
for LP gas (propane
or butane),
I0"
(25.4 cm) of water
column.
Make sure you are supplying
your range with
the type of gas for which it is designed.
This range is
convertible
for use on natura!
or propane
gas. If you
decide to use this range on LP gas, conversion
must be
made by a qualified
LP installer
before attempting
to
operate
the range on that gas.
For proper
operation,
the pressure
of natural
gas
supplied
to the regulator
must be between
4" (10o2 cm)
and 13" (33 cm) of water
column.
For' LP gas, the
pressure supplied
must be between
10" (25.4 cm) and
13" (33 cm) of water column.
When
checldng
for
proper
operation
of' the regulator,
the inlet pressure
must
be at least 1" (2.5 cm) greater
than the operating
(manifold)
pressure as given above. The pressure
regulator
located at the inlet of the range manifold
must
remain
in the supply line regardless
of whether
natural
or LP gas is being usedL A flexible
metal appliance
connector
used to connect
the range to the gas supply
line should
have an I.D. of I/2" and be 5 feet (1.5 m)
in length
for' ease of installation.
In Canada,
flexible
connectors
must be single wall metal connectors
no
longer than 6 feet (1.8 m) in length.
STEP
2
Connect
the Range to Gas
Shut off' the main gas supply valve before disconnecting
the old range and leave it off' until
new hook-up
has
been completed.
Don't fi_rget to relight
the pilot on
other
gas appliances
when you turn
the gas back on.
Because
hard piping
restricts
movement
of the range,
the use of an AoG_A.-certified
flexible
metal appliance
connector
is recommended
unless local codes require
a
hard-piped
connection.
Never use an old connector
when
installing
a new range. If' the hard piping
method
is used, you must carefully
align the pipe; the
range cannot
be moved
after the connection
is made.
To prevent
gas leaks, use pipe joint
compound
or
wrap Teflon*
pipe thread
tape around
all male
(external)
pipe threads.
