Before Installing the Cooktop

IMPORTANT SAFETY

NS

Installation of this cooktop must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel

Gas Code ANSI Z223.1--1atest edition in the United
States, or in Canada, with the Canadian Fuel Gas Code,

CAN/CGA B14g and CAN/CGA B149.2.

This cooktop has been design certified by CSA
international. As with any appliance using gas and
generating heat, there are certain safety precautions you

should follow. You will find them in tile Use and Care
Guide, read it carefully.

Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service

technician.

This cooktop must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the Nationat Electrical Code ANSUNFPA No.

70--Jatest edition in the United States, or in
Canada, with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA

C22.1 Part 1.

• The burners can be lit manually during an
electrical power outage. To Hght a burner, hold a
lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the

Surface Control knob to LITE. Use caution when
lighting burners manually.

Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above the cooktop. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the cooktop to reach

items.
To eliminate the need to reach over the surface

burners, cabinet storage space above the burners
shoutd be avoided,

Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil,

Excessive flame is hazardous.

Figure 2

A roll of foam tape is supplied and packed in the
literature package. Install the tape around tile perimeter

of the metal flange of the burner box, at a distance of

1/4" from the outer edge. Apply tile exposed adhesive

side of tile tape against the metal flange (see figure
above). Remove the protective film from the

underside of the tape before inserting the cooktop
into the countertop opening.

NOTE: This tape seals the underside of the cooktop to
the counter. Do not remove this foam tape. This tape

prevents entry of air that may interfere with proper gas
combustion, and prevents liquids from leaking under tile

cooktop.

Insert cooktop into countertop cutout so that full width of
tape seals to cutout edge. NOTE; To avoid injury and

product damage, only suspend cooktop from cutout by
means of cooktop metal flange. Never suspend cooktop

from cutout by means of cooktop glass edges.

Provide an Adequate Gas Supply

This cooktop isdesigned to operate on natural gas at 4"
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" of water column
(W.C.) pressure.

Clamp Down Information

Once the cooktop is installed in the counter opening, you
must clamp tile unit down as shown.

Foam Countertop

For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at
least I" (or 2.5 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold
pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" of manifold
pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 5".

Tile gas supply line to the range should be 1/2" or 3/4"
pipe.

LP/Propane Gas Conversion

This appliance can be used with Natural gas or LP/
Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with

natural gas.

A kit for converting to LPgas is supplied with your
cooktop. The kit is marked "FOR LP/PROPANEGAS

CONVERSION".

The conversion must be performed by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the kit instructions and all

local (:odes and requirements. Failure to follow
instructions could result in serious injury or property

damage. The qualified agency performing this work
assumes responsibility for the conversion.

Thumb

Screw

Figure 5

To (:lamp down, insert the bracket with tile offset side of
the angle into the slots on each side of the unit. The
thumb screw should then be run through the bracket, up
against the bottom of the counter. Tighten until the unit

draws down.

Failure to make the appropriate

conversion can result in serious personal injury and
property damage.
