pressure must be at least 1greater than the

regulator output setting. If the regulator is

set for 4of water column pressure, the inlet

pressure must be at least 5. If the regulator

is set for 10of 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

1/2or 3/4ID flexible metal appliance

connector, three to five feet long.

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.
