Provide an Adequate Gas Supply

This cooktop is designed to operate on natural gas at 4" (10.2 cm) of manifold pressure only.

A pressure regulator is connected in series with the manifold on the cooktop and must remain in series with the supply line.

For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator must be no more than 14" (35.6 cm) of

water column (W.C.) pressure. For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at

least 1"(2.5 cm) (or 2.5 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" (10.2 cm) of manifold pressure, the inlet pressure must

be at least 5" (12.7 cm). The gas supply line to the range should be 1/2" (1.3 cm)

or 3/4" (1.9 cm) pipe.
