TEST POINT ADAPTER c) Any conversion required must be performed by your dealer or a qualified licensed
plumber or gas service company. Please provide the service person with this
The Test Point adapter is available from manual before work is started on the range. (Gas conversions are the responsibility
the After-Sales Service. of the dealer or end user.)

d) This range can be used with NATURAL or LP/PROPANE gas. It is shipped from
the factory adjusted for use with NATURAL gas.

e) Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer and by operating as

below detailed:
- Remove the injector from the rear left burner and mount the proper test point
adapter which is available from the After-Sales Service (see side figure and the
“OPERATIONS TO BE PERFORMED WHEN SUBSTITUTING THE INJECTORS”
chapter).
- Turn the rear left burner control knob to the maximum position ( position)
- Press the knob and keeping it pressed check the manifold pressure with a
manometer; NATURAL gas requires 4.0” W.C.P. and LP/PROPANE requires
11.0” W.C.P.
- Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P. higher
than the manifold pressure in order to check the regulator.
- The regulator used on this range can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2
PSI (14.0” W.C.P). If the line pressure is in excess of that amount, a step-down
regulator will be required.

f) The appliance, its individual shut-off valve, and pressure regulator must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI (3.5 kPa).

g) The appliance 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 pressure equal to or less than 1/2 PSI (3.5 kPa).

3. Flexible Connections:
If local codes permit, CSA or UL design-certified, flexible metal appliance connector is
Fig. 2.4 recommended for connecting this range to the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage
the flexible connector when moving the range. The pressure regulator has 1/2” NPT
female pipe threads.You will need to determine the fittings required, depending on the
size of your gas supply line, flexible metal connector and shutoff valve.

4. Rigid Pipe Connections:

If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used
to obtain an in-line connection to the range. All strains must be removed from the
supply and fuel lines so range will be level and in line.
• Use joint compounds and gaskets that are resistant to action of natural or propane
gas on all male pipe threads.
• Do not over tighten gas fitting when attaching to pressure regulator. Over tightening
may crack regulator.

5. Leak Testing:
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted as follows:
• After final gas connection is made, turn on manual gas valve and test all
connections in gas supply piping and appliance for gas leaks with a soapy water
solution. During this test all appliance gas valves have to be closed.
• In order to avoid property damage or serious personal injury, never use a Iighted
match. If a leak is present, tighten joint or unscrew, apply more joint compound,
tighten again and retest connection for leak.

SETTING THE BURNER MINIMUM

When switching from one type of gas to another, the minimum flow rate must also be correct: the flame should not go out even when
passing suddenly from maximum to minimum flame.
To regulate the flame (fig. 2.7) follow the instructions below:

Triple-ring and semirapid burner

• Light the burner.
• Set the gas valve to position (minimum rate).
• Remove the knob.
• With a thin screwdriver, turn the regulation screw “R1” until adjustment is correct.

Inside crown of DUAL burner

• Light the DUAL burner.
• Set the gas valve to position (minimum rate of inner crown).
• Remove the knob
• With a thin screwdriver, turn the regulation screw “R2” until adjustment is correct.

Outside crown of DUAL burner

• Light the DUAL burner.
• Set the gas valve to position (minimum rate of outer crown and maximum rate of inner crown).
• Remove the knob.
• With a thin screwdriver, turn the regulation screw “R3” until adjustment is correct.
For LP/PROPANE gas, tighten the adjustment screws completely.

After regulation repeat the operations indicated in paragraph “2. PRESSURE REGULATOR” at page 15 and 20.
If the range has been disconnected and then connected again to the gas supply line repeat the operations indicated in paragraph “5.
LEAK TESTING” at page 20.
IMPORTANT:
• After conversion to LP/PROPANE gas has been carried out affix near the data plate the conversion label supplied and also affix a
conversion label at page 3 of this instruction manual.
• After conversion back to the original gas (NATURAL GAS) has been carried out remove, near the data plate and at page 3 of this
instruction manual, the LP/PROPANE conversion labels. Save the labels removed for future use.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
• This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in
WARNING accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.70 (latest edition) and
local electrical code requirements. IN CANADA: Electrical installation must be in
accordance with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Codes Part1 and/or local
TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK
codes.
HAZARD, BEFORE INSTALLING
THE APPLIANCE, SWITCH POWER • This appliance may be connected by means of permanent “Hard Wiring” or “Power
OFF AT THE SERVICE PANEL AND Supply Cord Kit”. Power supply cord is not supplied, but it is available through your
LOCK THE PANEL TO PREVENT local electric supply house.
THE POWER FROM BEING • Use only 3-conductor or 4-conductor CSA/UL listed range cord rated at 30 amps with
SWITCHED ON ACCIDENTALLY. 250 V minimum and provided with ring terminals. These cords should be provided with
strain relief or conduit connector.
Warning: Frame grounded through neutral lead. If used in,
- New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC),
- Mobile homes,
- Recreational vehicles, or
- In an area where local codes prohibit grounding through neutral, use a 4 conductor
cord or conduit.
• The range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as
specified on the rating plate.
• The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box)
through flexible, armoured or non-metallic sheathed, copper cable (with grounding
wire). Allow two to three feet of slack in the line so that it can be moved if servicing is
ever necessary.

For installations within the United States, it is highly

recommended to use a 4-wire power cord. Using
WARNING!! the 3-wire installation may result in insufficient
Electrical Shock Hazard power to your range, and will result in poor heating
Electrically ground range.Failure to performance resulting in very long cooking times.
follow these instruc-tions can result
in death, fire, or electrical shock.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH POWER CORD

Use a 3-wire power supply cord kit rated for 30 amps - 125/250 volts with closed loop
terminals and marked for use with ranges. Where local codes do not permit grounding
through neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord kit.
The cord must be secured to the range with a suitable strain relief. The electrical
connection is made at the terminal block, which is located behind the terminal block
access plate on the back of the range.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH CONDUIT

Use 1/2” (1.3 cm) trade size CSA/UL-listed conduit with a conduit clamp, 16 AWG/600
volt copper conductor colored red for line 1 and black for line 2 and 16 AWG/600 volt
copper conductor (or 12 AWG/600 Volt copper conductor if grounding through neutral)
colored white for neutral with closed loop terminals marked for use with ranges.
Where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, use a green 12 AWG
copper conductor as directed in the 4-wire connector directions. The conduit must be
secured to the range with the strain relief bracket. The electrical connection is made at
the terminal block which is located behind the terminal block access plate on the back
Location of of the range.
