Burner Input Requirements
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not applicable for Canada).
For elevations above 6,560 ft (1999.5 m) a high altitude kit is needed to avoid any reduced power output. See separate LP gas conversion instructions sheet.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least
1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on the model/serial rating plate.
Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)
The cooktop and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower
The cooktop must be isolated 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Cooktop for Installation
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Avoid drilling into or severing existing wiring during installation.
On Glass Cooktop models only:
1.Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a covered surface.
2.Remove foam strip from package containing literature. Remove backing from foam strip. Apply foam strip adhesive- side down around bottom of cooktop, flush with edge.
NOTE: The foam strip protects the underside of the cooktop glass from debris and helps the cooktop sit flat on uneven counters.

Install Cooktop
Style 1: Cooktop over undercounter built-in oven
IMPORTANT: Clamping brackets should not be used.
1.Using 2 or more people, place cooktop right side up into the cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching the countertop.
Style 2: Cooktop over cabinets
1.Determine whether your cabinet construction provides clearance for installing clamping brackets at cooktop base ends. This is the recommended location. Clamping brackets can be installed on the front and back of cooktop base bottom, if necessary.

2.The clamping brackets can be installed before or after the cooktop is placed into the cutout. Complete the following steps for the option you choose.
Installing Brackets Before Placing Cooktop in Cutout
1.Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a covered surface.
2.Remove the attachment screws for the selected bracket locations from the bottom of the cooktop base.
3.Select bracket mounting holes that will allow the bracket to extend far enough out from the cooktop for the installation of 2½" (6.4 cm) clamping screws. See “Attach Cooktop to Countertop” for illustration of clamping screw installation.
