Figure 4 – Gas Supply Location
Be sure the unit being installed is compatible with
the type of gas available. The range is shipped from the
factory for use with natural gas. Conversion for use with
propane gas can be made by using a kit, NLPKIT 6 P/N 35-
00-688. Only a qualified technician or installer can convert
the range. This kit includes instructions for adjusting valves
and pressure regulator and contains new burner jets. The
RDDS model is equipped with an intermittent/interrupted
ignition device (ExtraLow
®
).
CAUTION: When connecting unit to propane gas,
make certain the propane gas tank is equipped with
its own high pressure regulator in addition to the
pressure regulator supplied with the appliance. The
gas supply to the appliance regulator must be a
minimum of 11.0" water column. The maximum gas
pressure to the appliance regulator is not to exceed
14.0" water column from the propane gas tank.

IMPORTANT NOTES
(a) The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess
of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).
(b) The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Always use pipe dope or Telflon® tape on the
pipe threads and be careful not to apply
excessive pressure when tightening the
fittings.
Turn on gas and check supply line connections
for leaks using a soap solution. Do not use a
flame of any sort.
