(see “Product Dimensions and Clearances”). Use 5-foot maximum length, 5/8” O.D. flexible gas supply line (3-foot in Massachusetts).

•Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas line

(not provided), in an easily accessible location. Make sure the homeowner knows where and how to shut off the gas supply to the rangetop.

Electric Supply:

These rangetops must be supplied with 120 volt, 60 Hz., and connected to a dedicated, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of shock hazard from this appliance.

If the electrical service provided does not meet the above specifications, it is recommended that a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT

OR REMOVE THE THIRD

(GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.

• Locate the electric supply within the area shown or

within reach of the rangetop’s four-foot power cord.

•To avoid tangling cord with items stored in the cabinet, locate the receptacle on rear wall, inside the cabinet.

Installation

STEP 1 CUT THE COUNTERTOP OPENING

48” wide models are designed to fit in 48” or wider base cabinets

Measure carefully when cutting the countertop. Make sure sides of the opening are parallel.

•Allow 8” free space below the top surface of the countertop.

•Allow additional clearances below the burner box to install the regulator and make house supply connections. Use a 90° elbow to route the gas connections and limit interference with drawers or other cabinetry features.

•These rangetops are designed to hang from the countertop by their side flanges.

•Smooth any rough edges on the countertop before installing the rangetop.

– Formica countertop edges must be finished.

The countertop must be strong enough to support the weight of the rangetop.

36” wide models are designed to fit in 36” or wider base cabinets

STEP 3 CONNECT RANGETOP TO GAS

WARNING

Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks.

A manual shut-off valve must be installed where it will be accessible.

Assure that gas is turned off at the shut-off valve.

•Install the supplied pressure regulator onto the end of the gas inlet.

•You can install a 90° elbow (not provided) onto the gas inlet and route the gas connections to avoid interference with drawers or other cabinetry

features. However, it is not recommended because it will result in a drop in gas pressure.

•Make sure the regulator is installed in the right direction. See arrow on the underside of the regulator.

NOTE: Instead of using solid piping to connect to pressure regulator, an approved flexible metal appliance connector may be used between the pipe stub and the shut-off valve to the pressure regulator, if local codes permit.

•Turn on gas and check for leaks:

–Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections in the system.

Note: Pipe stub extends about 1” below burner box.

STEP 4 CONNECT ELECTRICAL

•Plug power cord into properly grounded receptacle.

•Press the button on the left side of the control panel. The lights above the knobs should illuminate.

STEP 5 CHECK BURNERS

Check to be sure that burner heads and caps are securely seated.

FINALIZE INSTALLATION

Place the burner grates over the burners. The grates should be seated and should not rock.

The griddle is secured with screws. It is designed to be stationary and should not be removed.

The griddle has two leveling screws beneath the rear flue cover that can be used to adjust to the desired slope.

Griddle Flue Cover

Burner Cap Properly Seated

Leveling Screws

Burner Cap Not Properly Seated

•Check for proper ignition:

–Push in one control knob and turn to LITE position.

–The igniter will spark and the burner will light; the igniter will cease sparking when the burner is lit.

–First test may require some time, while air is flushed out of the gas line.

–Turn knob to OFF.

–Repeat the procedure for each burner.

IMPORTANT: If the igniter electrodes continue to spark after the burners are lit, check that each burner component is assembled properly. Refer to the Owner’s Manual.

•Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of these conditions exist, check that the burner ports are not blocked. If one of these conditions continues, call for service.

Clamping Screws

The two inner screws are clamping screws for securing the griddle in place. Loosen these two screws before leveling. Do not remove these two screws.

The two outer screws are leveling screws. Do not remove these two screws. They can be turned to level the griddle or to provide a forward slope to help grease and oils to drain away from the food being cooked.

After leveling the griddle, hand-tighten the clamping screws; do not over-tighten.

INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

■Make sure all controls are left in the OFF position.

■Make sure the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the rangetop is unobstructed.

■The serial plate for your rangetop is located on the bottom of the rangetop. In addition to the model and serial numbers, it tells you the ratings of the burners and the type of fuel and

pressure the rangetop was adjusted for when it left the factory.

■Recheck Steps:

Double check to make sure everything in this manual has been completed. Rechecking steps will ensure safe use of the rangetop.
