Gas Supply Line

●

Provide a gas supply line of ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm)
rigid pipe to the range location. A smaller
size pipe on longer runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. With LP gas,
piping or tubing size can be ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm)
minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers
determine the size and materials used in
the system.
NOTE: Pipe-joint compounds that resist
the action of LP gas must be used. Do
not use TEFLON®†tape.

†®TEFLON is a registered trademark of E.I. Du Pont
De Nemours and Company.

Electrical Requirements

●

A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp
fused, electrical circuit is required. A
time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also
recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this range
be provided.

●

Electronic ignition systems operate
within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary.
Check that the outlet provides 120-volt
power and is correctly grounded.
