GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(For 30" & 36" Models)

Install Pressure Regulator

Install the pressure regulator with the arrow on the regulator pointing up toward the unit in a position where you can reach the access cap.

Do not make the connection too tight. The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion.

Once regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.

Check for leaks. After connecting the cooktop to the gas supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints and connections to check for leaks.

Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator in the following order:

1.manual shutoff valve

2.1/2" (1.3 cm) nipple

3.1/2" (1.3 cm) flare union adapter

4.flexible connector

5.1/2" (1.3 cm) flare union adapter

6.1/2" (1.3 cm) nipple

7.pressure regulator

Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible connectors are used, be certain connectors are not kinked.

The supply line must be equipped with an approved manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the cooktop and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may result in a fire or explosion.

Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line.

Check alignment of control knob valves after connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment could cause the valve stems to rub on the control panel, resulting in a gas leak at the valve.

Disconnect this cooktop and its individual manual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).

Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).

Electrical Requirements

120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

Do not use an extension cord with this cooktop.

Grounding Instructions

IMPORTANT Please read carefully.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3- prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3- prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 9) to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance.

The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded 3- prong wall receptacle.
