Must include a shut-off valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut-off 

valve. This valve should be located in the same room but 

external to the range opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. 

It should be in a location that allows ease of opening and 

closing. Do not block access to shut-off valve. The valve is 

for turning on or shutting off gas to the range.

Gas Pressure Regulator

The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be 

used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for 

cproper operation:

Natural gas:

Minimum pressure: 5" WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" WCP

LP gas:

Minimum pressure: 11" WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet 

pressure.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure 

gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water 

column. 
Examples of a qualified person include:

authorized gas company personnel, and

authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
