POWER SUPPLY LOCATIONS

GAS SUPPLY:

These cooktops are designed to operate on natural gas at 4″ of water column pressure or on LP gas at 10″ of water column pressure.

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY:

• These cooktops are shipped from the

factory set for natural gas. If you decide to

use this cooktop with LP gas, conversion

adjustments must be made by a service

technician or other qualified person.

• The pressure regulator must be connected in

series with the manifold of the cooktop and

must remain in series with the supply line

regardless of type of gas being used.

For proper operation, the maximum inlet

pressure to the regulator must be no more

than 10″ water column pressure for natural

gas and 14″ water column pressure for LP

gas.

• When checking the regulator, the inlet

pressure must be at least 1″ greater than the

regulator output setting. If the regulator is

set for 4″ of water column pressure, the inlet

pressure must be at least 5″. If the regulator

is set for 10″ of water column pressure, the

inlet pressure must be at least 11″. For ease

of installation, and if local codes permit, the

gas supply line into the cooktop should be

1/2″ or 3/4″ ID flexible metal appliance

connector, three to five feet long.

NOTE: Purchase a new flexible line. DO NOT

USE AN OLD PREVIOUSLY USED LINE.

• Make gas connection through rear wall, or

on cabinet floor at rear, as illustrated.

The built-in gas downdraft cooktop features pilotless electric ignition for energy savings and reliability. It operates on a 120-volt, 60-Hz power supply. A separate circuit, protected by a 15-amp time-delay fuse

or circuit breaker, is required.

•A properly grounded 3-prong receptacle should be located within reach of cooktop’s four foot power cord.

IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully.) FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three- prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by

a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded and has correct polarity.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Do Not, Under Any Circumstances, Cut Or Remove The Third (ground) Prong From The Power Cord.

Do not use an extension cord.
