Grounding Instructions
iMPORTANT Please read carefully.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-
prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-
prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 7) to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the
appliance.
The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Shutoff Valve
Open position
Figure 6
Once the regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in
the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through the gas line.
Check for leaks. After connecting the cooktop to the
gas supply, check the system for leaks with a
manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the
gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and
water) at all joints and connections to check for leaks.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks
from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame
may result in afire or explosion.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Check alignment of control knob valves after
connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the
cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment
could cause the valve stems to rub on the control panel,
resulting in a gas leak at the valve.
Disconnect this cooktop and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
Isolate the cooktop 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 lessthan 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
