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
FOR PROPER OPERA TRON, THE MAXIMUM
BNLET PRESSURE TO THE REGULATOR MUST
BE NO MORE THAN t4" 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 infet pressure must be at
least 5" tf the regulator is set for 10" the inlet pressure
must be at least 11"

5. Check for leaks After connecting cooktop to gas,
check system for leaks with a manometer If a
manometer is not available, turn the gas supply on to
the cooktop and use afiquid leak detector at alljoints
and connections to check for leaks
Tighten aft connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the range or supply #ne
Check alignment of valves after connecting the cooktop
to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe has not
been moved A misalignment could cause the valve
knob stem to rub on the control panet, resulting in a gas
leak at the valve

Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of
an extension cord, However, if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL
listed three-wire grounding type appliance extension
cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equivalent to or greater than the branch
circuit rating, Such extension cords are obtainable
through your local appliance dealer

An adequate electrical supply and outlet must be used
to operate the electrical parts of your cooktop
t. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug which must be
used with a properly grounded three-hole outlet
with a standard t20 Volt, 60 cycle AC household

A grounding adaptor wil! be needed to convert the
old one until the outlet can be replaced Thismethod
Jsonly temporary, and a qualified electncian should
