IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The Cafifornia Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
G;:asappliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, fommldehyde and soot, caused prhnmqly by the incomplete combustion of
natural gas or LP fllels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow
flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized
by xenting with an open window or using a xentilation tim or hood.

Installing the Cooktop
_] Provide Adequate Gas
Supply
This cooktop is designed to operate on natural
gas at 4" of water column pressure. It is
shipped from the factory set for natural gas
(except JGP319 models, which are set for LP).
The convertible pressure regulator supplied
with the unit must be connected in series with
the manifold of the cooktop and must remain
in series with the supply line regardless of
whether natural or L.P. gas is being used.
FOR PROPER OPERATION, THE MAXIMUM
INLET PRESSURE TO THE REGULATOR
MUST BE NO MORE THAN 14" OF WATER
COLUMN PRESSURE. For checking the
regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least
1" (or 3.4 KPA) greater than the regulator
output setting. If the regulator is set for 4" of
water column pressure, the inlet pressure
must be at least 5". If the regulator is set for
10", the inlet pressure must be at least 11"
The gas supply line to the cooktop should be
1/2" or 3/4" pipe.
Installing the Regulator
NEVER REUSE OLD CONNECTORS
WHEN INSTALLING THIS COOKTOP.
WARNING: Never reuse old flexible
connectors. The use of old flexible
connectors can cause gas leaks and
personal injury. Always use new
flexible connectors when installing
a gas appliance.
Screw a section of pipe
onto each end of the
pressure regulator.
To reduce the likelihood of gas leaks, apply

to check for leaks.
Tighten all connections if necessary to
prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or
supply line.
Check alignment of valves after connecting
the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the

and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The
customer should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adaptor, always hold the adaptor with one
hand. If this is not done, the adaptor ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated
use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground has again
been established.
Usage situations where appliance power

Do not use an adaptor plug in these situations
because disconnection of the power cord
places undue strain on the adaptor and leads
to eventual failure of the adaptor ground
terminal. The customer should have the two-
prong receptacle replaced with a three-prong
(grounding) receptacle by a qualified
electrician before using the appliance.

Checking the igniters
Operation of the electric igniters should
be checked after the cooktop and supply
line have been carefully checked for leaks
and the cooktop has been connected to
the electrical power.
a. Push and turn a burner valve to the LITE
position.
• The burner valve should light when gas
is available to the burner
• Once the burner lights, it should be
turned out of the LITE position.
b. Try each valve separately until all burners
have been checked.
Burner Ignition
Cooktop Spark Ignition--When you turn
the cooktop knob to LITE, the spark igniter
makes a series of electric sparks (ticking
sounds) which light the burner.
During a power failure, the burners will not
light automatically. In an emergency, a
cooktop burner may be lit with a match by
following the steps below.
The Burner Flames
Turn all burners full on and check the flames.
They should be blue in color with no trace of
yellow. Foreign particles in the gas line may
cause an orange flame at first, but this will
soon disappear.
To make adjustments:
a. Remove the control knobs, grates and
drip pans.
b. Lift up the cooktop (hinged in rear).
c. Use pliers to adjust the air shutter. Be sure
to keep the gap in the air shutter facing
straight up. Be very careful not to bend
the air shutter when using pliers to make
adjustments.
- If the flames were yellow or fluttered,
open the air shutter more than the
original setting.
- If the flames blew away from the burner,
close the air shutter more than the
original setting.
I match is dangerous. You should match
I light the cooktop burners only in an
emergency.
a. Light a match and hold the flame near the
burner you want to light. Wooden matches
work best.
b. Push in and turn the control knob slowly.
Be sure you are turning the correct knob
for the burner you are lighting.
NOTE: If the burner does not light within five
seconds, turn the knob off and wait one minute
before trying again.
