SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - BEFORE YOU BEGIN
When properly cared for, your Hestan appliance will provide safe, reliable service for many years.
When using this appliance, basic safety practices must be followed as outlined below.
IMPORTANT: Save these instructions for the local Gas or Utility Inspector’s use.
INSTALLER: Please leave these Installation Instructions with the owner.
EN
OWNER: Please retain these Installation Instructions for future reference.
This rangetop is NOT designed for installation in manufactured (mobile) homes or recreational park
trailers. Do NOT install this rangetop outdoors.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect power before installing or servicing appliance. Before turning
power ON, be sure all controls are in the OFF position. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock or death.
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
This appliance must be grounded. Grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock in the event of a short circuit. Read the ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
section of this manual for complete instructions.
This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard
and should be directly plugged into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
The appliance must be on its own dedicated circuit - 120 VAC, Single Phase, 60 Hz, with a current
rating of 15 Amps. Have the installer show you where the electric circuit breaker is located so
you know how to shut off the power to this appliance. It is the responsibility of the user to have
the appliance connected by a licensed electrician in accordance with all local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Read the ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS section of this manual for complete details.
The rating label contains important information about your
Hestan appliance such as the model and serial number,
gas type and manifold pressure, electrical rating, the BTU
rating for each burner type, and the minimum installation
clearances.
The rating label is located underneath the unit.
If service is necessary, contact Hestan Customer Care with
the model and serial number information shown on the label.

LOCATION AND INSTALLATION / VENTILATION
UNPACKING AND PLACEMENT
Remove the outer carton and packing materials. Do not remove the plastic film covering the
stainless-steel surfaces. This film protects the finish from scratches until the appliance is installed in
its final position.
The unit is somewhat heavy and should be handled with care. Use proper safety equipment, such
as gloves, and at least 2 persons to move the appliance into position to avoid injury and to avoid
damage to the floor or the appliance itself.
Before moving the rangetop, remove the grates, burner caps, and any other loose items.
EN
The rangetop must be mounted on a stable platform, as illustrated on the following pages. The
platform must include a 6” x 12” [15.2 x 30.5 cm] cutout at the left rear to allow for the gas and
electrical connections. The platform must also be level to ensure an even cooking surface, especially
for those models featuring a griddle. The platform should be a minimum of 3/4” [19 cm] thick to
support the weight of the unit. For large units 48” [1.2m] and wider, a center structural element
inside the cabinet, under the platform, may be necessary.
GAS AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CLEARANCES
If not already in place, install a gas shut-off valve in an
easily accessible location for servicing of the rangetop.
Make sure all users of the rangetop know where this shutoff is located, and how to shut off the gas. Any openings
in the wall or floor behind the appliance must be sealed.
The Installation Clearances on the following pages show
where the “G” and “E” zones should be located.
GAS
SUPPLY
IN OPEN POSITION
TO
The rangetop is designed to be installed nearly
flush to the rear wall*. It may be necessary to
reposition the gas supply and power receptacle
/ junction box in order to accommodate the
rangetop when pushed back against the wall.
The power supply cord when plugged in, or
junction box should protrude no more than
2-1/2” [6.4 cm] from the rear wall.
* Unless installed in an island with no rear wall.
CABINETRY
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can
be reduced by installing the required vent hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5” [12.7 cm]
beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
The rangetop must be level, especially those models featuring a griddle. Raise to the desired height
by placing shims underneath the unit as needed.
The appliance top must
be level or higher than
the adjacent countertop
surfaces. Failure to adjust the height may expose
the adjacent cabinets to excessive heat which may
damage the cabinets or countertop.

FRONT COOLING VENTS
When placing your rangetop in the cabinet, DO
NOT BLOCK or obstruct the front cooling vents
shown. These vents allow air into the appliance
to keep the internal electronic parts cool.
It is strongly recommended that this appliance be installed with a Hestan vent hood. Due to the high
heat output of this rangetop, it is very important that the hood and ductwork installation meets local
building codes and is installed by a qualified technician.
Do not use a down-draft style ventilation system.
Do not mount a microwave oven/ventilator combination above the rangetop. These type of units do
not have sufficient airflow to remove the high heat output of this rangetop and were not tested with
this type of appliance.
For non-Hestan approved vent hoods, the vent hood and/or blower unit must be rated for 1 CFM
[1.7 m³/hr] for every 100 BTU [.03 kW].
• If the rangetop has a 12” Griddle, add an additional 200 CFM [340 m³/hr] to the blower capacity.
For island applications, it is recommended to use a vent hood that is 6” [15.2 cm] wider than the
appliance, to allow for 3” [7.6 cm] of overlap on the left and right of the appliance.
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible. Elbows and transition fittings reduce airflow
efficiency. Hestan recommends keeping the duct run under 50 ft. [15.2 m].

EN
CONSULT WITH YOUR HESTAN DEALER ON SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE
VENT HOOD FOR YOUR HESTAN APPLIANCE.
BACKGUARD AND ACCESSORIES
Sheetmetal accessories such as the backguard, and areas at the rear of the rangetop may have sharp
edges. Wear work gloves while handling and installing these items.
BACKGUARD
Your Hestan rangetop is supplied at the factory with an Island Trim backguard. See Table 1 in the
APPENDIX section of this manual for other backguard options available from your Hestan dealer.
Selection of the appropriate backguard depends on the installation location and adjacent materials,
and the type of vent hood to be used. Installation instructions are included with the backguard kit.
A LOW OR TALL BACKGUARD IS REQUIRED WHEN INSTALLING THE RANGETOP AGAINST A
COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE - THE ISLAND TRIM IS NOT SUITABLE.
The top of the backguard serves as an exhaust vent to remove heat from under the rangetop. DO
NOT BLOCK or obstruct the top of the backguard. DO NOT touch the top of the backguard during
appliance operation as it may get hot. Allow sufficient time to cool before touching or cleaning this
area. DO NOT position plastic or other heat-sensitive items nearby which could melt or burn.
