40" DUAL FUEL RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(Models with Electric Ovens and Gas Cooktop)
Tighten all connections
if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Check alignment of valves
after connecting the
cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe
has not been moved.
Disconnect the range and its individual shutoff
valve
from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).
LP/Propane Gas Conversion
This appliance can be used with Natural Gas or Propane
Gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas.
If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/Propane
gas, use the supplied fixed orifices; they are contained in a
special bag along with instructions marked “FOR LP/
PROPANE GAS CONVERSION”
, located on the back of
the range, close to the appliance regulator valve.
The conversion must be performed by a qualified installer,
LP supplier or service technician in accordance with the
installation instructions furnished with this range and all
codes and requirements of all local codes and
requirements. Failure to follow instructions could result in
serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency
performing this work assumes responsibility for the
conversion.
Failure to make the appropriate conversion
can result in personal injury and property damage.
Any additions, changes or conversions
required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet
the application needs must be made by an authorized
Sears Service Center, Distributor or Qualified Agency.
Moving the Appliance for
Servicing and Cleaning
Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the
main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off
valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service
drawer and open the oven door. Lift the range at the
front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without
creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit.
Isolate the range 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 (3.5kPa or 14"
water column).
Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the
back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-
out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and
switch on the electrical power and gas to the range.
If the pressure regulator is connected to rigid piping, the
regulator must be disconnected before moving the
appliance.
Reassemble in reverse order (see figure 9).
