B . If it is a new installation have the gas authorities check

meter size and piping to assure that the unit is supplied

with necessary amount of gas pressure required to

operate the unit .

C . If it is additional or replacement equipment have the gas

authorities check pressure to make certain that existing

meter and piping will supply fuel to the unit with no

more than 0 .15 Kpa pressure drop .

D . Make certain new piping and connections have been

made in a clean manner and have been purged so that

piping compound, chips, etc . will not clog pilots, valves or

burners . Use pipe joint compound approved for natural

and liquefied petroleum gases .

INSTALLATION Continued

NOTE: Gas pressure should be checked when the unit is

installed and all other equipment on the same line is on . The

operating gas pressure must be the same as that specified

on the rating plate . If necessary, pressure adjustment may be

made at the pressure regulator supplied with the appliance .

The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be

disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of that system where pressures are in excess

of 1/2 PSIG (3 .45kPa .)

Final Preparation

NOTE: Your new range has a plastic coating to help

protective the finish from scratches during shipping . This

protective plastic film should be pealed off prior to starting

the range .

TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT

Testing

All fittings and pipe connections must be tested for

leaks . Use approved gas leak detectors, soap solution or

equivalent, checking over and around all the fittings and

pipe connections . DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to

all gas lines and fittings require that valve panel(s) lower

front panel(s), and/or oven rack(s) be removed . It may be

necessary to remove, or at least raise and securely prop

griddle(s), hot top(s), and/or top grate(s) . All parts removed,

(including fasteners), should be stored safely for re-

installation .

1 . Be sure that all valves and thermostats are in the “OFF”

position .

2 . Turn on the main gas supply valve . Light all top section

pilots .

3 . Leak test all valves and fittings as described at the

beginning of this section . Correct any leaks as required

and recheck .

4 . Light the oven pilot .

5 . Set the oven thermostat to maximum . Leak test all valves

and fittings as described at the beginning of this section .

Correct any leaks as required and recheck .

6 . Shut off all valves and set thermostat dials to “OFF” or

lowest position . All units are tested and adjusted at the

factory, however, burners and pilots should be checked

upon installation and adjusted if necessary .

CAUTION: Gas will flow to the top section burners even if

top section pilots are not lit . Gas will not be interrupted . It

is the responsibility of the operator to confirm the proper

ignition of each burner as it is turned on . Should ignition

fail to occur 4 seconds after turning a burner on, turn the

burner off, wait 5 minutes, and try again .
