Midea MGR30S2AST Installation Instructions Manual page 15

For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be
between 5" and 13"of water column. For LP gas, the pressure supplied to the regulator
must be between 10" and 13" of water column.
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.
When checking for correct operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least
6" of water column for NG or 11" of water column for LP.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range must remain in the supply line
regardless of which type of gas is being used. A flexible metal appliance connector used
to connect the range to the gas supply line should have an I.D. of 5/8" and a maximum
length of 5 feet. In Canada, flexible connectors must be single wall metal connectors less
than 6 feet in length.
Electrical Supply Requirements
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
• Installation must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70 or the Canadian
Electric Code, CSA C22.1-O2.
The power cord of this product is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard 3-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of
electric shock hazard from this appliance.
The wall receptacle is to be connected to a properly grounded dedicated circuit
providing 120 VAC/60 Hz power and protected by a 15- or 20-Amp circuit breaker or
slow blow fuse.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified
electrician to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle. Do
not use an adapter plug.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND)
PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.
Regarding GFCI outlets: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles. GFCIs are devices that sense leakage of current
in a circuit and automatically switch off power when a threshold leakage level is detected.
These devices must be manually reset by the consumer. The National Electrical Code only
requires the use of GFCI's in kitchen receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces.
Performance of the range will not be affected if operated on a GFCI-protected circuit but
the occasional resetting of the circuit can become an annoyance.
