Connect gas supply to the range. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt, and
piping compound.
Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the range.
Ranges are equipped with fixed burner orifices for proper range operation elevation.
On some models, the gas pressure regulator is factory installed on the manifold pipe at the rear of the
range, and on some models, the regulator is packaged separately. The arrow on the regulator shows
the direction of gas flow (Fig. 11).

While connecting the range to the gas supply, the pressure regulator must be mounted horizontally to
ensure proper preset outlet pressure (see Fig. 12 for standard oven and Fig. 13 for convection oven).
If the regulator is mounted in any other position, the outlet pressure must be reset.
Pressure regulators must be design certified by American Gas Association Laboratories and must
have regulation capacity for the total connected load and must have a pressure adjustment range to
allow adjustment for manifold pressure marked on the range rating plate.
Unless the manifold pressure on all connected appliances is the same, a separate regulator must be
supplied for all ranges having different manifold pressures.
