Make Gas Connection
1. Assemble flexible connector from gas supply pipe to pressure
regulator located in the middle front of the range.
2. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the
smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters (see B
and G in the following illustration).
3. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the
other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.
4. Use a
¹⁵⁄₁₆
" combination wrench and channel lock pliers to
attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that
connector is not kinked.
Complete Connection
1. Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
2. Test all connections by brushing on an approved
noncorrosive leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear, a
leak is indicated. Correct any leak found.
3. Remove cooktop burner caps, grates and simmer plate from
parts package. Align notches in burner caps with pins in
burner base. Burner caps should be level when properly
positioned. If burner caps are not properly positioned,
surface burners will not light. Place burner grates over
burners and caps.
4. Turn on power supply. “PF” should appear on the clock
display. For further information, please refer to the user
instructions located in the Use and Care Guide.
Electronic Ignition System
Initial lighting and gas flame adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
“LITE” position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
This sparking continues, as long as the control knob is turned to
“LITE.”
Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
Push in and turn each control knob to the “LITE” position.
The flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner is
lit it may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air in the
gas line.
If burners do not light properly:
■
Turn cooktop control knob to the “OFF” position.
■
Check that the range is plugged in and the circuit breaker has
not tripped or the fuse has not blown.
■
Check that the gas shutoff valves are set to the “open”
position.
■
Check that burner caps are properly positioned on burner
bases.
Repeat start-up. If a burner does not light at this point, contact
your dealer or authorized service company for assistance.
