in insufficient gas supply. With LP gas, piping or tubing size

" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection 

to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the range 

pressure regulator.

 

■

Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when 

moving the range.

IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do 

not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making 

the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause 

a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn or move when 

tightening fittings.

 

■

Must include a shut-off valve:
The 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 opening such as an adjacent cabinet. 

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.

The gas pressure regulator supplied with this range must be 

used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for 

proper operation:
Natural Gas:
Minimum pressure: 6" (15.2 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP
LP Gas:
Minimum pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet 

pressure.

Input ratings shown on the model/serial/rating plate are for 

elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced 

at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m).

Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" 

(2.5 cm) water column pressure above the manifold pressure 

shown on the model/serial/rating plate.
Line Pressure Testing Above 

The range and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected 

from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of 

that system at test pressures in excess of 

1

/

2

 psi (3.5 kPa).

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 

1

/

2

 psi (3.5 kPa).
