GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Type of Gas

Natural Gas:

This cooktop is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.

●This cooktop is factory set for use with Natural gas. If converting to LP gas, see the “LP Gas Conversion” instructions provided in the package containing literature. The model/serial rating plate located on the underside of the cooktop base has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.

LP Gas Conversion:

Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

No attempt shall be made to convert the cooktop from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. See the Gas Conversion instructions provided in the package containing literature.

Gas Supply Line

●Provide a gas supply line of ³⁄" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the cooktop location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing size should be ¹⁄" minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.

Flexible metal appliance connector:

●If local codes permit, use a ¹⁄" or ³⁄" I.D. flexible stainless steel tubing gas connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line.

†®TEFLON is a registered trademark of E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

●A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this cooktop be provided.
