Venting Requirements
IMPORTANT: This cooktop must be exhausted outdoors unless
using the Duct-Free Filter Accessory Kit. See the “Venting
Methods” section.
■ Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other
enclosed area.
■ Use a vent cap.
■ Vent system must terminate to the outside.
■ Use only a 6" (15.2 cm) round metal vent. Rigid metal vent is
recommended. For best performance, do not use plastic or
metal foil vent.
■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the wall or floor for the exhaust vent.
■ Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a
joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
■ The size of the vent should be uniform.
■ The vent system must have a damper.
■ Use vent clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around
the cap.
■ Determine which venting method is best for your application.
For Best Performance:
■ Use 26-gauge minimum galvanized or 25-gauge minimum
aluminum metal vent. Poor quality pipe fittings can reduce
airflow. Flexible metal vent is not recommended.
NOTE: Local codes may require a heavier gauge material.
■ Metal duct may be reduced to 30-gauge galvanized steel
or 26-gauge aluminized steel if allowed by local codes.
This reduction is based on information in the International
Residential Codes Section M1601.1 (2006 edition).
■ Do not install two elbows together.
■ Use no more than three 90° elbows.
■ If an elbow is used, install it as far away as possible from
the vent motor exhaust opening.
■ Make sure there is a minimum of 18" (45.7 cm) of straight
vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
■ Elbows too close together can cause excess turbulence that
reduces airflow.
■ Do not use a 5" (12.7 cm) elbow in a 6" (15.2 cm).
■ Do not reduce to a 5" (12.7 cm) system after using 6" (15.2 cm).
■ Avoid forming handmade crimps. Handmade crimps may
restrict airflow.
■ Use a vent cap for proper performance. If an alternate wall
or roof cap is used, be certain the cap size is not reduced
and that it has a backdraft damper.
■ Use vent clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around
the cap.
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept
to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
The maximum equivalent length of the vent system is 60 ft
(18.3 m). For altitudes above 4,500 ft (1,272 m), reduce
recommended vent run by 20% for best performance.
Cold Weather Installations
An additional backdraft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold airflow.
Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of
air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in
your area.

WARNING
Make Gas Connection
Complete Connection
1. Open the manual shut-off valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
A
B
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to propane, have a qualified person make
sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural
and Propane gas to the smaller thread ends of the flexible
connector adapters (see C and G in the following illustration).
2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and
the other adapter to the gas shut-off valve. Tighten both
adapters, being certain not to move or turn the gas pressure
regulator.
3. Use a 15/16" (24 mm) combination wrench and channel lock
pliers to attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check
that connector is not kinked.
Typical flexible connection
A. Closed valve
B. Open valve
2. Test all connections by brushing on an approved
noncorrosive leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear,
a leak is indicated. Correct any leak found.
3. Remove surface burner caps and grates from packaging.
Place burner caps on burner bases. Burner caps should
be level when properly positioned. If burner caps are not
properly positioned, surface burners will not light. Place
burner grates over burners and caps.
IMPORTANT:
during conversion. Be sure that the electrode comes through the
hole in the burner base smoothly.

Electronic Ignition System
Initial Lighting and Gas Flame Adjustments
This cooktop is equipped for electronic auto-reignition by means
of a spark igniter located at the rear of each burner. The burners
are designed to light at any valve rotation that admits sufficient
gas flow to support a flame and to automatically relight following
a loss of flame due to a draft or other adverse condition. This
feature is provided only as a convenience.
Check Operation of Surface Burners
Push in and turn the surface burners control knobs to light.
The surface burner flame should light within 4 seconds. The first
time a surface burner is lit, it may take longer than 4 seconds to
light because of air in the gas line.
Check the flame on High for a blue color. It should be clean and
soft in character. No yellow tip, blowing or lifting of flame should
occur. Occasional orange flashes are normal and reflect different
elements in the air or gas.
After verifying the proper burner operation, turn the control
knobs to OFF.
If burners do not light properly:
■ Turn surface burner control knob to OFF.
■ Check that the power supply cord is plugged in and the
circuit breaker has not tripped or the fuse blown.
■ Check that the gas shut-off valves are set to the open
position.
■ Check that burner caps are properly positioned on
burner bases.
Recheck operation of surface burners. If a burner does not light
at this point, contact your dealer or authorized service company
for assistance.

Adjust Flame Height
Smart Port Burner System
This cooktop is equipped with a Smart Port Burner System. The
Smart Port Burner System produces a small flame directly under
each grate finger and a larger flame between each grate finger.
The visual difference between the ports will be noticeable when
the burner is used or when adjustments are made to the flame
length.
Adjust the height of top burner flames. The cooktop Low
burner flame should be a steady blue flame approximately
1/4" (6.4 mm) high.
A. Low flame
B. High flame
To adjust standard burners:
The flame can be adjusted using the adjustment screw in
the center of the valve stem. The valve stem is located
directly underneath the control knob.
13
Page 14
If the low flame needs to be adjusted:
1. Light one burner and turn to lowest setting.
2. Remove the control knob.
3. Hold the knob stem in the low position using a pair of pliers.
Use an 1/8" (3.0 mm) flat-blade screwdriver to turn the screw
located in the center of the control knob stem until the flame
is the proper size.
4. Replace the control knob.
5. Test the flame by turning the control from Low to High,
checking the flame at each setting.
6. Repeat above steps for each burner.
