I RTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTION

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/NFPA 54 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, ANSI/ NCSBCSA225.1 or with local codes where applicable.

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 the 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 National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.

70--latest 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 light 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 should be avoided.

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

Excessiveflame is hazardous.

Never use your cooktop for warming or heating the room. Prolonged use of the cooktop without adequate ventilation can be hazardous.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.

Cooktop Installation

1. Visually inspect the cooktop for damage.

2. Set the cooktop into the countertop cutout. NOTE: Do not use caulking compound; cooktop should

be removable for service when needed.

Clamp Down Information Once the cooktop is installed in the counter opening,

/ou must clamp the unit down as shown.

Countertop

Cooktop _ /

Provide an Adequate Gas Supply This cooktop is designed 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.

For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1" (or 2.5 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" of manifold pressure, and the inlet pressure must be at least 5".

The gas supply line to the range should be 1/2"or s4" 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 codes 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.

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.

Figure 4

To clamp down, insert an angle bracket into the slot on each side of the unit as shown.Run thumb screw up through the bracket, up against the bottom of the counter. Tighten until the unit draws down and is

secure.
