GAS SELECTION

This appliance is factory

No changes are required for

connecting to propane/LP.

Only a qualified installer or service

technician can perform gas selec-

tion and connecting to gas supply.

CAUTION: Two gas line in-

stallations at the same time are

prohibited.

CAUTION: To avoid gas leak-

age for the gas not being used at

the inlet of regulator, a qualified

installer or service technician

must use supplied cap.
You will notice a color coded

plunger on the inside of the regu-

lator. This is normal. When the in-

let connection fitting is inserted

and tightened, this plunger will

be pushed back by the fitting

making all of the adjustments

for the gas being supplied. DO

NOT REMOVE THE PLUNGER.

The regulator will not work.
The inlet regulator is color coded

for identification of the correct

gas type. Blue is for propane (LP

gas) and yellow is for natural gas.
