NOTE
: The metal chassis of the range must be grounded� If the metal chassis is not grounded, the control panel
will not operate� Check with a qualified technician to ensure the metal chassis of the range is grounded properly�
GAS SUPPLy REQUIREMENTS
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 technician make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14” (36 cm) water column�
• Examples of a qualified technician include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel,
and authorized service personnel�
• Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire�
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances�
IMPORTANT
: Leak testing of the range MUST BE conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions�
Type of Gas
•
Natural Gas: This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural Gas or, after proper
conversion, for LP gas�
IMPORTANT
: This range is manufactured for Natural Gas use� Refer to “Gas Conversions” section on page 17�
The model/serial rating plate located on the left side oven door trim has information on the types of gas that can
be used� If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, contact your local gas supplier�
•
LP Gas Conversion: No Attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on the
model/serial rating plate for use with different gas without consulting the serving gas su
pplier� Refer to
“Gas Conversions” section on page 17�
IMPORTANT
: Conversions MUST BE done by a qualified technician�
Gas Shut-off Valve
The gas 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� 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�
Flexible Metal Appliance Connector
If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4
to 5 ft (122-152�4 cm) long, ½” (1�3 cm) or ¾” (1�9cm)
I�D, flexible metal appliance connector may be use
for connecting the range to the gas supply line�
Rigid Pipe Connection
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of
pipe fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the
range� The rigid pipe MUST BE level with the range
connection� All strains MUST BE removed from the
supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line�

Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be used� For proper operation, the inlet pressure to the
regulator SHOULD BE as follows�
Natural Gas
LP Gas
Minimum Pressure 5” WCP (Water Column Pressure)
Minimum Pressure 11” WCP (Water Column Pressure)
Maximum Pressure 14” WCP (Water Column Pressure) Maximum Pressure 14” WCP (Water Column Pressure)
NOTE
:
Contact your local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure�
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
NOTE
:
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator MUST BE at least 1” WCP (Water Column Pressure) above the
manifold pressure shown of the model/serial rating plate�
•
Line pressure testing above 0�5 psi gauge (14” WCP): The range and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system test pressures in
excess of 0�5 psi (3�5kPa)�
•
Line pressures testing at 0�5 psi gauge (14”WCP) or lower: The range 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 0�5 psi (3�5kPa)�
