WARNING
m
To prevent an electric shock hazard; the power suppJy
must meet the specjficat!ons stated below, it is the own:
er,s responsibility to make sure that the eJectdca_service
meets electrical requirements and that the eJectrica_ outlet
has been properly installed by a _icensed electrician.
The cooktop is supplied with a factory installed,
40-inch, three-prong, grounding electrical plug. It is
connected to the chassis at the bottom right rear corner
(see Chassis Bottom Diagram below). It must be con-
nected to a dedicated, grounded three-prong electrical
outlet installed by a licensed electrician.
The electrical installation, including minimum supply
wire size and grounding, must be done in accordance
with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70* and local
codes and ordinances. A copy of this standard may be
obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269-9101
• The correct voltage, frequency and amperage must be
supplied to the electrical outlet according to the product
data label located on the bottom of the chassis. See
the Gas and Electrical Requirements table on this
page for reference.
• Be certain to locate the electrical outlet so that the
power cord may be easily disconnected if the unit
needs service.
Front of unit
Be certain that the cooktop being installed is correct for
the gas service being provided (natural gas or LP gas).
Also, if operating the cooktop at an altitude above 4000
ft. (1219 m) make sure it is equipped for high altitude
operation.
Units equipped for LP operation have "LP" in the
model number listed on the product data label. See the
Chassis Bottom Diagram for label location.
Units equipped for high altitude operation have an "H"
at the end of the model number listed on the product
data label.
e
Check your local building codes for the proper method
of installation. In the absence of local codes, this
appliance should be installed in accordance with the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
• An external manual shut-off valve must be installed
between the gas inlet and the cooktop for the purpose
of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.
The cooktop comes from the factory with a regulator in
the shipping carton. The regulator must be installed in
the gas line that runs from the cooktop gas inlet to the
gas shut off valve. Use only the regulator provided.
• Models SGM304 and SGM365 come with a 1/2" regu-
lator. Model SGM466 comes with a 3/4" regulator,
approved for connection to a 1/2" house gas supply.
The cooktop gas connection is located on the bottom of the
cooktop in the back right corner as you face the front of the
unit. See the Chassis Bottom Diagram on this page.
