Water Filtration System
LocationRequirements

(on some models)

For best results, do not install the water filtration system outside
or in extreme hot or cold temperatures. Temperature of water
supply to the water filtration system must be between 40°F (4°C)
and 100°F (38°C). Do not install on hot water supply line.

Locate the water filtration system near the cold water supply
pipe under the kitchen sink to filter cold water.

Make sure that the water filter assembly is installed in the
upright position.

It will be necessary to drill a 1/2" (13 mm) minimum diameter
hole in the upper-right or left rear corner of the side wall of
the cabinet under the sink to route the water supply tubing
through to the range.

Depending on your installation configuration, more routing holes
may be required.

Coil enough flexible codes-approved water supply tubing
behind the range to allow for the connection to the range to
be made behind the range prior to setting the range in place.

Typical Installation Configuration

NOTE: For unique installations, contact a licensed plumber.

In Massachusetts, a licensed plumber is required and the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Code 248-CMR
will be adhered to.

Water Supply Requirements

A cold water supply with water pressure between 30 and
120 psi (207 and 827 kPa) is required to operate the steam
feature. In Massachusetts, plumbing code 248 CMR 3.00 and

10.00 must be followed, and a licensed plumber will be used.
If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of

a reverse osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the
range needs to be between 30 and 120 psi (207 and 827 kPa).

If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your
cold water supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis
system needs to be a minimum of 40 psi (276 kPa).

If the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system is less than
40 psi (276 kPa):

■ Check to see whether the sediment filter in the reverse

osmosis system is blocked. Replace the filter, if necessary.

■ Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis system to refill

after heavy usage.

If you have questions about your water pressure, call a licensed,
qualified plumber.

moving the cooktop.

IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened.
Do not make connections to the gas regulator too tight.
Making the connections too tight may crack the regulator
and cause a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn or
move when tightening fittings.

■ Must include a shut-off valve:

Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in an easily accessible
location. Do not block access to shut-off valve. The valve is
for turning on or shutting off gas to the cooktop.

B

A. Gas supply line
B. Shut-off valve open position
C. To cooktop

The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must
be used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as
follows for proper operation:

Natural Gas:

Minimum pressure: 15.2 cm WCP
Maximum pressure: 35.6 cm WCP

Propane Gas:

Minimum pressure: 27.9 cm WCP
Maximum pressure: 35.6 cm WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the

inlet pressure.

Burner Input Rating — Altitude

Input ratings shown on the model/serial/rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).

For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings need to be
reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above
sea level (not applicable for Canada).

Gas Supply Pressure Testing

Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 2.5 cm
water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on
the model/serial/rating plate.

Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge
(35.6 cm WCP)

The cooktop and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of
1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge
(35.6 cm WCP) or lower

The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
