INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LOCATION
Do not locate your range where it may be subject
to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall
behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the
openings around the base of the range that
supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation
are not blocked by carpeting or woodwork.
When the floor covering ends at the front of the
range, the area that the range will be installed on
should be built up with plywood to the same level or
higher than the floor covering. This will allow the
range to be moved for cleaning and servicing, as well
as proper air flow to the range.
Your range, like many other household units, is heavy
and can be installed on soft floor coverings such as
cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving
the range on this type of flooring.
It is recommended that the following simple and
inexpensive instructions be followed to protect your
floor.
Also, make sure the floor covering can resist 180°F
(82°C). See the "INSTALLATION SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" (included in this manual).
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can
resist the heat generated (up to 200°F/93°C) by the
range. See the "INSTALLATION SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" (included in this manual).

1. PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of
5” of water column on natural gas or 10” of water
column on LP.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied to the regulator
must be between 10” and 13” of water column.
When checking for correct operation of the regulator,
the inlet pressure must be at least 1” more than the
operating (manifold) pressure as given above.
Make sure you are supplying your range with the type
of gas for which it is configured.
This range is convertible for use on natural or LP gas.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the

which type of gas is being used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect
the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of
5/8” and a max of 5ft. In Canada, flexible connectors
must be single wall metal connectors less than 6 feet
in length.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas
supplied to the regulator must be between 5” and 13”
of water column.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2. CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS
Shut off the range gas supply valve before
removing the old range and leave it off until the
new hook-up has been completed.
Connect a flexible metal appliance connector to
the adapter on the range. Position range to permit
connection at the shut-off valve.
C
Because hard piping restricts movement of the range,
the use of a CSA International-certified flexible metal
appliance connector should be used unless local
codes require a hard-piped connection.
When all connections have been made, be sure
all range controls are in the off position and turn
on the main gas supply valve. Gas leaks may
occur in your system and result in a dangerous
situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell
alone.
Check all gas connection joints and fittings for
leaks with a non-corrosive leak detection fluid,
then wipe off.
D
NEVER reuse an old connector when installing a new
range.
To protect against gas leaks, use a qualified pipe joint
sealant on all external threads.
A Install male 1/2” or 3/4” flare union adapter to the
NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve,
taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it
from turning.
Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and
install an UL approved gas detector. Install and
use in accordance with Installation instructions.
WARNING!
DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS
LEAKS.
