Connect Gas Supply
Important note for LP users: The range is shipped
from the factory for use with natural gas. For use
with propane (LP) gas, your range must first be con-
verted using the LP conversion kit.
The gas connection is located below the back panel
of the range (page 7). It is accessible through the
warming drawer access panel or from the back of
the range. To reach access panel, remove warming
drawer.
Shut off main gas supply valve before disconnecting
the old range and leave it off until the new hook-up
has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pi-
lot on other gas appliances when you turn the gas
back on.
The range can be installed using rigid pipe or a CSA
International-certified flexible metal appliance con-
nector. If using a flexible connector, always use a
new connector.
Apply pipe joint compound or Teflon** tape appropri-
ate for use with LP gas and Natural gas around all
male pipe threads to prevent leaks.
If not already present, install gas shut off valve in an
easily accessible location. Make sure all users know
where and how to shut off the gas supply to the
range.
NOTE: The installer should inform the consumer of
the location of the gas shutoff valve. Flexible Connector Method
