Installation guide

Explosion Hazard
Use a new AGA or CSA approved
gas supply line,
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten aimgas
con nections.
if connected to LP, have a
qua{ified person make sure gas
pressure does not exceed 14"
(35.6 cm) water column.
Examples of a qualified person
include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company
personnel_ and
authorized service personnel
Failure to do so can result in
death, explosion, or fire.
Observe all governing codes and
ordinances.
This installation must conform
wkh local codes and ordinances, in
the absence of local codes,
installations must conform with
American National Standard, National
Fuel Gas Code ANSi Z223.1 - latest
edition _ or CAN/CGA-B149 - latest
edition _ installation codes.
[] input ratings shown on the
model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 feet
(609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet
(304.8 m) above sea level. (Not
applicable for Canada.)
This range is equipped for use
with Natural gas. it is design-certified
by International Approval Services
(I.A.S.) for Natural and L.R gas with
appropriate conversion. Conversion
to L.R gas can be made using the kit
included in the literature package.
The model/serial rating plate, located
on the oven frame behind the
storage drawer panel, has
information on the type of gas that
can be used. if this information does
not agree with the type of gas
available, check with your dealer.
Provide a gas supply line of
3/4" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the range
location. A smaller size pipe on long
runs may result in insufficient gas
supply. Pipe-joint compounds
appropriate for use with L.R gas
must be used. With L.R gas, piping
or tubing size can be 1/2" (1.3 cm)
minimum. L.R gas suppliers usually
determine the size and materials
used on the system.
E[]
if local codes permit, a new
A.G.A./C.S.A. design-certified, 4-5
foot (122 -152.4 cm) long, 1/2"
(1.3 cm) or 3/4" (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible
metal appliance connector is
recommended for connecting this
range to the gas supply line. Do not
kink or damage the flexible tubing
when moving the range. A 1/2"
(1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed
for connection to pressure regulator
female pipe threads.
shutoff valve
"open" positi
gas supp
ge
The supply line shall
be equipped with an approved
shutoff valve.This valve should be
located in the same room, but
external to the range, and should be
in a location that allows ease of
opening and closing. Do not block
access to shutoff valve.
[] if rigid
pipe is used as a -' --I_)
gas supply line, a combination of _ 1
pipe fittings must..............be used to
obtain an inqine connection to the
range. All strains must be removed
from the supply and fuel lines so
range will be level and in line.
[] The regulator setting must be
checked at a minimum of 1 inch
water column above the manifold
pressure.The inlet pressure to the
regulator should be as follows for
operation:
Natural gas:
Manifold pressure -- 5 inches
Maximum pressure -- 14 inches
L.R gas:
Manifold pressure -- 10 inches
Maximum pressure -- 14 inches
Line pressure testing:
Testing above 1/2 psi (gauge).
The range and its individual shutoff
valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at
test pressures greater than
1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at 1/2 psi (gauge) or lower.
The range must be isolated 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).
