Installing the Cooktop

wARNING

•Verify that the power supply meets the specifications on page 4 before proceeding.

•To prevent damage to the gas pressure regulator, install it only after the cooktop is mounted in its per- manent position.

caution

•Do not over-tighten the hold down bolts. Over tight- ening the hold down bolts may result in improper operation of the dual gas burners.

•Do not use a hardening compound or caulk to perma- nently seal the cooktop into place. The cooktop must be readily removable if service is required. Removal of sealant to service the unit will be performed at the customer’s expense.

1.Lower the cooktop into the cutout. Slide it forward as far as possible and center it side to side.

2.Secure the cooktop to the countertop using the two (2) provided hold-down brackets as shown.

Connecting the Gas Line

wARNING

•Verify that the gas supply meets specifications before connection. See page 4.

•Do not install the cooktop without also installing the included gas regulator. Do not use the cooktop with- out the regulator installed.

•Ensure that the arrow on the regulator points in the direction of the gas flow, towards the cooktop.

•Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas connections and fittings.

•Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on flexible gas line connections.

•Test the gas lines for leaks as instructed before use. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.

•The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed ½ pounds per square inch (p.s.i.) or 3.5 kPa.

•The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pres- sure testing exceeding ½ p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).

•The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the shut-off valve to the cooktop during any gas supply piping system pres- sure testing equal to or less than ½ p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).

•For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator supplied with the cooktop.

1.Attach the gas pressure regulator (included with the cooktop) to the cooktop pipe nipple inlet. For tight installations, the regulator may be installed upstream from the pipe nipple, anywhere between the shut-off valve and the cooktop. For best performance, minimize gas pressure loss by attaching the regulator as close as possible to the cooktop gas inlet.

2.Complete connection of the gas supply to the cooktop by installing a minimum ½” flexible gas line (not includ- ed) between the pressure regulator and the shut-off valve.

3.Check for gas leaks:

◊Turn all cooktop control valves to the OFF position.

◊Turn on the gas supply valve and check all lines and connections for leaks using a soap and water solution or a gas leak detector.

◊Turn the gas supply off.
