Installing the Rangetop, cont.
Connecting the Gas Supply
, cont.
Never install an old connector on a new appliance. For hard piping, carefully align the pipe; the
rangetop cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, apply pipe-joint compound or wrap pipe-thread tape with Teflon on all male
(external) pipe threads.
1. Attach the provided gas-pressure regulator to the rangetop pipe nipple inlet. (For tight
installations, the regulator may be installed upstream from the nipple, anywhere between the
shut-off valve and the rangetop. For best performance, minimize gas-pressure loss by attaching
the regulator as close as possible to the gas inlet.
2. Complete the connection by installing a flexible gas line between the pressure regulator and the
shut-off valve.

NOTE
The gas shut-off valve should be installed on the gas
piping, away from the rangetop, easily accessible for
quick opening/closing.
Checking for Gas Leaks
WARNING
To prevent an explosion/fire hazard possibly leading to personal injury or death, DO NOT use a
flame to check for gas leaks.
When using pressures above 1/2 psig to test the home gas-supply system, disconnect the rangetop
and individual shut-off valve from the supply line. When testing with pressures of 1/2 psig or less,
isolate the rangetop by closing the individual shut-off valve.
1. When all connections are made, ensure all rangetop controls are OFF, and turn on the main gas-
supply valve.
2. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints.
3. Tighten connections as needed to prevent gas leakage in the rangetop or supply line.
