Make Gas Connection
1. Assemble flexible connector from gas supply pipe to pressure
regulator located in the middle rear 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, burner bases and grates from
parts package. Place burner bases on cooktop. Place burner
caps on burner bases. Place grates over burners and caps.
4. Check that the range is plugged into the appropriate outlet
(see the “Electrical Requirements” section).
5. Turn on power supply. For further information, please refer to
the user instructions located in the Use and Care Guide.
Verify Anti-Tip Bracket Location
1. Turn all 4 leveling rods 1 full turn to raise the range and
provide enough clearance for the rear leveling leg to slide into
the anti-tip bracket.
2. Move range into its final location making sure rear leveling leg
slides into anti-tip bracket.
NOTE: If installing the range in a mobile home, you must secure
the range to the floor. Any method of securing the range is
adequate as long as it conforms to the standards in the “Location
Requirements” section.
A. Gas pressure regulator
B. Use pipe-joint compound.
C. Adapter (must have ½" male
pipe thread)
D. Flexible connector
E. Manual gas shutoff valve
F. ½" or ¾" gas pipe
G. Use pipe-joint compound.

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 person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
