appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
INSTRU S
Installation of this cooktop must conform with local (:odes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54--1atest edition in the
United States, or in Canada, with the Canadian Fuel Gas
Code, CAN/CGA B149 and CAN/CGA B149.2.
When installed in a manufactured (mobile) home
installation must conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, title 24 CFR,part
3280 [Formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD (part 280)] or,
when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installation, ANS!/NCSBCS A225.1
or with local codes where applicable.
This (ooktop 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 the Use and Care
Guide, read it carefully.
The electrical power to the cooktop
must be shut off while gas line connections are
being made. Failure to do so coutd resutt in serious
injury or death.

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.
ii
LLINE
Failure to make the appropriate
conversion can result in serious personal injury and
property damage.
Important: Remove all packing material and
literature from cooktop before connecting gas and
electrical supply to cooktop.
Install Pressure Regulator
Install the pressure regulator with the arrow on the
regulator pointing up toward the unit in a position where
you can reach the access cap.
Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.

Reg_Bator
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, tile inlet pressure must be at
least 1"(2.5 cm) (or 2.5 kPa) greater than the regulator
manifold pressure setting. The regulator isset for 4"
(10.2 cm) of manifold pressure, the inlet pressure must
be at least 5" (12.7 cm).
Tile gas supply line to the range should be 1/2" (1.3 cm)
or 3/4" (1.g cm) 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".
Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe
to the pressure regulator in tile following order:
1. manual shutoff valve
2. 1/2" (1.3 cm) nipple
3. 1/2" (! .3 cm) flare union adapter
4. flexible connector
5. 1/2" (1.3 cm) flare union adapter
6. 1/2" (1.3 cm) nipple
7. pressure regulator
Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and
LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible
connectors are used, be certain connectors are not
kinked.

Grounding Instructions
IMPORTANT Please read carefully.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-
prong (grounding) plug which mates with astandard 3-
prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 7) to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the
appliance.
The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Shutoff Valve
Open position
Figure 6
Once the regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in
the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through tile gas line.
Check for leaks. After connecting the cooktop to the
gas supply, check the system for leaks with a
manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the
gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and
water) at all joints and connections to check for leaks.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks
from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame
may result in afire or explosion.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Check alignment of control knob valves after
connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the
cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment
could cause the valve stems to rub on the control panel,
resulting in a gas leak at tile valve.
Disconnect this cooktop and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
tsotate the cooktop from the gas supply piping
system by (:losing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
Electrical Requirements
120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Do not use an extension cord with this cooktop.

Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed, it
is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded 3-
prong wall receptacle.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Disconnect electrical supply cord from
wall receptacle before servicing cooktop.
Cooktop Installation
1. Visually inspect the cooktop for damage.
2. If you are installing the optional Stainless Steel
backsplash, first fix it at the back of the cooktop using
the screws supplied with the kit and follow the
instructions attached.
3. Set the cooktop into the countertop cutout.
NOTE: Do not use caulking compound; cooktop should
be removable for service when needed.
