30" GAS SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3
Provide an adequate Gas Supply
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed
to operate on 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa)
Natural gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure
regulator is connected to the range manifold and MUST
be connected in series with the gas supply line. If LP/
Propane conversion kit has been used, follow instructions
provided with the kit for converting the pressure
regulator to LP/Propane use.
Care must be taken during installation of range not to
obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56 cm)
of water column pressure (3.5 kPa). The inlet pressure
to the regulator must be at least 1" (.25 kPa) greater
than the regulator manifold pressure setting. Examples:
If regulator is set for natural gas 4"(10,16 cm) manifold
pressure, inlet pressure must be at least 5"(12.60 cm);
if regulator has been converted for LP/Propane gas
10"(25,4 cm) manifold pressure, inlet pressure must be
at least 11"(27,9 cm).
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the instructions in step 5.
The gas supply line should be ½" or ¾" I.D. (Interior
Diameter).
The gas supply piping can be through the back wall
(Fig. 3, zone 1) or through the floor (Fig. 3, zone 2):
Zone 1 - Through the Back Wall (7" X 6") - The best
place to have your gas line in is between 1" (2.5 cm) and
8" (20.3cm) from the floor and within 3" (7.6 cm) from
the center line.
Zone 2 - Through the Floor (~2" X 24") - The gas line
can also come through the floor within 12" (30.5 cm)
from the center line against the back wall. In case, you
can remove the "L" shape piece of metal at the bottom
metal portion at the back of the unit. There is absolutely
no problem removing this "L" shape piece of metal, it is
there to protect the gas line especially during transport.

Seal the openings
Seal any openings in the wall behind the range and
in the floor under the range after gas supply line is
installed.
5
Connect the range to the gas
supply
Important: Remove all packing material and literature
from range before connecting gas and electrical supply.
To prevent leaks, put pipe joint sealant on all external
pipe threads.
Your regulator is located
as shown in figure 4.
Do not
allow regulator to
rotate on pipe when
tightening fittings.
Connection to Pressure Regulator
The regulator is already installed on the appliance.
Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.
