Connecting Appliance To Gas Supply

A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN OR GAS APPLIANCE

INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS SUPPLY

CONNECTION.

Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given.

1. Install a manual shut-off valve in an accessible location in the gas line external to this appliance for the purpose of shutting off gas supply to this appliance.

2. Install the appliance pressure regulator supplied with this appliance to the threaded gas inlet of the manifold pipe, taking care to observe proper direction of gas flow through the regulator. Tighten to 20 to 30 ft.-Ibs, of torque.

3. Connect the inlet of the appliance pressure regulator to the shut-off valve using a 112" NPT pipe nipple of appropriate length and additional pipe fittings, as required.

Use an approved pipe joint compound that is resistant to the action of LP gas on all external pipe threads when making these connections.

A new, A.G.A.-certified, flexible metal appliance connector may be used to connect this appliance to the gas supply

(figure 3.) The flexible connector should have a diameter of

112"flare union adapter is required at each end of the flexible connector. CAUTION: Do not attempt to attach the flexible connector directly to an external pipe thread.

IMPORTANT

Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas connection between the supply line shut-off valve and the range. Include gas fittings and joints in the range if connections were disturbed during installation. Check for leaks! Bubbles appearing around fittings and connections will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, turn off supply line gas shut-off valve, tighten connections, turn on the supply line gas shut off valve, and retest for leaks. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.

NOTE: In Canada, gas utilization codes prohibit use of street elbows. Use standard pipe elbows and make modifications to these instructions as necessary.

WARNING

Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL approved gas detector.

Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Installation of Natural Gas Orifice

Spuds

This appliance is equipped for electronic auto-reignition by means of a spark igniter located at the side of each burner.

The burners are designed to light at any valve rotation that admits sufficient gas flow to support a flame and to automatically re-light following a momentary loss of flame due to a draft or other adverse condition. This feature is provided as a convenience and is not intended as a safety feature.

This appliance has no air shutters, making adjustment of primary air unnecessary.

The burners are designed to provide optimum aeration of all gases without air shutters.

When operating properly, burners should produce clearly defined, even blue flames. If the flames have yellow tips or are hazy and otherwise appear to have insufficient air, obtain the services of a qualified service technician.
