Assemble the flexible metal connector from the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator. You will need to determine the fittings required, depending on the size of your gas supply line, flexible metal connector and shut- off valve. Refer to the illustration below.

Use a pipe-joint compound made for use with natural and LP gas. If a flexible metal connec- tor is used, be sure the tubing is not kinked.

Open the shut-off valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for the gas to move through the line. Refer to the illustration on page 10.

Use a brush and liquid detergent to test all gas connections for leaks. Bubbles around connec- tions will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, shut off gas valve controls and adjust connections.

Then check connections again. Clean all the detergent solution from the cooktop.

Never test for a gas leak with a match or other flame.

SURFACE B U R N E R S

The surface burners use electronic igniters in place of standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is pushed in and turned to the HIGH position, the system creates a spark to light the burner. This sparking continues until the electronic ignition senses a flame.

Be sure to place the burner heads and caps on each burner base and position the burner grates over the burner bases and heads before lighting.

To check operation of the surface burners, push in and turn each control knob to the HIGH position. The flame should light within four seconds.

If the burners do not light properly, turn control knob to the OFF position. Check that the burner heads and caps are in the proper position. Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and that the circuit breaker or house fuse has not blown. Check that the shut- off valve is in the ON position. Check operation again, if the burners do not light properly at this point, contact a Wolf authorized service center.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Initial lighting of the surface burners may take slightly longer, as air in the system must be purged before gas can be supplied to the burner.
