INSTALLATION CHECKLIST FOR GAS RANGES
1. Determine if a fuel conversion is needed
Your range will require a fuel conversion if you intend to connect to
propane.
NOTE:
Propane conversions must be completed by a qualified service
technician (see the gas conversion section in the installation instructions
that came with your range).
2. Verify properly tightened fuel connections.
Example of how to make a gas connection.
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 when tightening fittings.
3. Verify the gas regulator is “ON”
1. Locate gas pressure regulator in the back of the range.

IMPORTANT:
Do not remove the gas pressure regulator.
2. Check that the gas pressure regulator shutoff valve is in the“ON”
position.

PORTANT:
The factory default setting is the “ON” position. If the
range does not work, verify that the valve is in the “ON” position.
4. Verify surface burner function

To ignite burner:
1. Push in and turn knob counter-clockwise to LITE. All surface burners
will click. Only the burner with the control knob turned to LITE will
produce a flame.
2. Turn knob to anywhere between High and Low. The clicking will stop.
