Type of Gas

Natural Gas:
This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with

Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.

●

This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. See “Gas
Conversions” section. The model/serial rating plate located on the
oven frame behind the top left side of the oven door has
information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of
gas listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the
local gas supplier.

LP gas conversion:
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas
specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas
without consulting the serving gas supplier. See “Gas Conversions”
section.

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.

●

If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4 to 5 ft (122 to

152.4 cm) long, ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) or ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal
appliance connector may be used for connecting range to the gas
supply line.

●

A ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to the
female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator.

●

Must include a shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve.
This valve should be located in the same room but external to the
range opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It should be in a
location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block
access to shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off
gas to the range.

Electrical:

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.
