          Medallion Series

After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.  After the range has been 

installed and leveled, and before the first use, all gas connections and fittings must be leak tested.  Using an approved leak detector 

or soap solution, make sure all gas valves and thermostats are in the OFF position, turn on main gas and follow these steps:

1.  Light the top section pilots.

2.  Check all connections, valves and fittings for leaks.

3.  If a leak is detected shut down main gas supply and repair leak, then retest.

4.  Again turn on main gas supply to range.

5.  Light the oven pilot and turn the oven shut-off valve to the ON position.

6.  Again check all gas connections, valves and fittings for leaks.

7.  If a leak is detected shut down main gas supply and repair the leak, then retest.

WARNING

!

Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks.  Use soap and water solution.  DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.

TESTING AND ADJUSTMENTS

SINGLE RANGE INSTALLATIONS

All single stand-alone ranges require installation using an AGA design certified pressure regulator with an outlet pressure of 6" 

(1.49 kPa) water column for natural gas supply and 10" (2.49 kPa) water column for propane gas supply available from American Range.  

The regulator is preset at the factory to match with the pressures indicated on the rating plate.  When installing the regulator, follow 

instructions supplied by the regulator manufacturer.

Pressure for the incoming gas line must not exceed 1/2 PSI.  If a pressure regulator is not installed, the warranty on related parts, as 

well as performance related problems, will NOT be covered.

BATTERY INSTALLATIONS

The gas manifold of this range, or the battery of which it is a part, must be connected to a AGA design certified gas appliance pressure 

regulator available from American Range.  The total connected load must not exceed the pressure regulator maximum.

If the manifold pressures of the connected ranges are not the same, a separate regulator must be supplied for each range operating at 

a different manifold pressure.
