KitchenAid KDRS483VSS Installation Guide

6.  Turn on water supply.
7.  Check all connections for leaks.
NOTE: No flushing or conditioning of the water filter is required 

prior to use.

Make Gas Connection

1.  Assemble flexible connector from gas supply pipe to 

pressure regulator located in the middle rear of the range.

2.  Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to 

the smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters. 

(See B and G in the following illustration.)

3.  Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and 

the other adapter to the gas shut-off valve. Tighten both 

adapters, being certain not to move or turn the gas 

pressure regulator.

4.  Use a 

15

/

16

" combination wrench and an adjustable wrench 

to attach the flexible gas supply to the adapters. Check that 

connector is not kinked.

IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do 

not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making 

the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause 

a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn or move when 

tightening fittings.

1.  Open the manual shut-off valve in the gas supply line. The 

valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.

2.  Test all connections by brushing on an approved 

noncorrosive leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear, 

a leak is indicated. Correct any leak found.

3.  Remove cooktop burner caps, burner bases, and grates from 

parts package. Place burner bases on cooktop and burner 

caps on burner bases. Place grates over burners and caps.

4.  Check that the range is plugged into the appropriate 

grounded outlet. (See the “Electrical Requirements” section.)

5.  Turn on power supply. For further information, please refer 

to the user instructions located in the Use and Care Guide.

Verify Anti-Tip Bracket Location

1.  Using a 

5

/

16

" socket or wrench, turn all 4 leveling rods one full 

turn to raise the range and provide enough clearance for the 

rear leveling leg to slide into the anti-tip bracket.

2.  Move range into its final location, making sure rear leveling 

leg slides into anti-tip bracket.

3.  Use a flashlight to look underneath the bottom of the range 

and visually check that the rear range foot is inserted into 

the slot of the anti-tip bracket.

Level Range

NOTE: Range must be level for satisfactory baking performance.
1.  Place rack in oven.
2.  Place level on rack and check levelness of the range – 

first side to side, then front to back.

3.  If range is not level, adjust the leveling rods. Turn leveling 

rods located behind the kick plate to level range and to 

raise or lower range to the desired countertop height.

NOTE: All roller feet must be off the floor upon final installation.
