Flexible Gas Supply Line
1.
This installation must conform with local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of
local codes, installations must conform
with American National Standard, National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edi-
tion* or CAN/CGA-B149—latest edition**
installation codes.
2.
Input ratings shown on the model/serial
rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000
feet (609.6 m). For elevations above 2,000
feet (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet (304.8 m)
above sea level. (Not applicable for
Canada.)
3.
This range is equipped for use with Natu-
ral gas. It is design-certified by A.G.A./
C.G.A. for Natural and L.P. gas with ap-
propriate conversion. Conversion to L.P.
gas can be made using the kit included in
the literature package. The model/serial
rating plate, located on the oven frame
behind the storage drawer panel, has in-
formation on the type of gas that can be
used. If this information does not agree
with the type of gas available, check with
your dealer.
4.
Provide a gas supply line of 3/4" (1.9 cm)
rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller
size pipe on long runs may result in insuf-
ficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds
appropriate for use with L.P. gas must be
used. With L.P. gas, piping or tubing size
can be 1/2" (1.3 cm) minimum. L.P. gas
suppliers usually determine the size and
materials used on the system.
5.
If local codes permit, a new A.G.A./C.G.A.
design-certified, 4-5 foot (122 -152.4 cm)
long, 1/2" (1.3 cm) or 3/4" (1.9 cm) I.D.,
flexible metal appliance connector is rec-
ommended for connecting this range to
the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage
the flexible tubing when moving the range.
A 1/2" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed
for connection to pressure regulator fe-
male pipe threads.
