Making The Gas Connection; Installing The Range; Installing The Burner Components - Electrolux E36DF76EPS Service Manual

MAKING THE GAS CONNECTION

Before sliding the range into the cabinet, connect a flex-
ible gas connector to the gas shut-off valve previously
installed on the stub out. The gas valve must be turned
off during installation. Connect the flex connector to the
pipe fitting at the right rear of the range.
WARNING
• Do not apply excessive pressure when
tightening gas connections and fittings.
• Do not use teflon tape or plumber's putty on gas
flex line connections.
• Turn all cooktop control valves to the "OFF"
position. Turn on gas supply and check all lines
and connections for leaks using a soap and
water solution. Do not use a flame to check for
leaks. After verifying that there are no gas leaks,
turn off the gas supply to the range by turning
the gas shut-off valve to the "OFF" position.
• For LP installations, the LP gas tank must have
its own high pressure regulator. This is in
addition to the pressure regulator provided with
the range.
• The maximum gas supply pressure to the
regulator must never exceed 1/2 pound per
square inch.
NOTE: The gas pressure regulator is pre-set at the
factory for natural gas to use with the
appliance. To convert the range for LP gas,
see the instructions supplied in the LP
conversion package.

INSTALLING THE RANGE

Measure from the floor to the countertop and adjust the
leveling legs as required to position the top frame at the
desired height, based on the cabinet and countertop
installation. Carefully slide the range into position in the
cutout. The rear anti-tip leg should engage the anti-tip
bracket.

INSTALLING THE BURNER COMPONENTS

Remove the brass burner rings, porcelain burner caps,
and porcelain gates from their shipping packages. Place
each burner ring onto its corresponding burner base,
being certain that the four alignment tabs
matching notches in the base. Set each porcelain burner
cap on top of its corresponding burner ring. Place each
grate onto the top frame, being certain that the rubber
feet are positioned in the locating dimples.
WARNING
Never attempt to operate the cooktop section of the
range with any of the burner rings, burner caps or
grates removed.
NOTE: Prior to operating the cooktop or oven
slide into the
