Electrical Requirements

Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The cooktop must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

This cooktop is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

One Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road

Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575

■ 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.

■ Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits,

but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded.

■ The wiring diagrams are provided with this cooktop. See

“Wiring Diagrams” section.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections. If connected to LP, 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.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes

and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 - latest edition.

IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the cooktop must be conducted according to the manfacturer’s instructions.

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. To

convert to LP gas, see the Gas Conversion instructions provided in the literature package. The model/serial rating plate located on the left underside of the burner box 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 literature package.

Gas Supply Line

Gas Pressure Regulator

■ Provide a gas supply line of ³⁄₄" (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 can be ½" minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.

Flexible metal appliance connector:

■ If local codes permit, use a ⁵⁄₈" flexible stainless steel

tubing gas connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line.

■ A ½" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection

to the female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator.

■ Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when

moving the cooktop.

Rigid pipe connection: The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe

fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop. The rigid pipe must be level with the cooktop connection. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so cooktop will be level and in line.

■ Must include a shutoff valve:

The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room but external to the cooktop. It should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the 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: 6" (15.2 cm) WCP Maximum pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP

LP Gas:

Minimum pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP Maximum pressure: 14" (35.5 cm) WCP Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet

pressure.

Burner Input Requirements

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 are 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

Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)

The cooktop and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower

The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install cooktop.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Write down the model and serial numbers before installing the cooktop. Both numbers are located on the left front underside of the burner box.

Unpack the parts supplied with your cooktop. The parts shipped with the cooktop depend on your model ordered. See “Tools and Parts” section for a complete list parts supplied with your cooktop.

Decide on final location for the cooktop. The pressure regulator and flexible stainless steel gas supply line

connector can be assembled to the cooktop now or after the cooktop is installed in the cutout. See “Make Gas Connection” section.

To Install Backguard or Island Trim

Attach the backguard or island trim as required for your installation. Attachment screws are in the literature package.

Backguard

■ On 48" (121.9 cm) models with both grill and griddle, use

screws “A” and “B.”

■ On 36" (91.4 cm) models with griddle only, use screws “A”

and “C.”

Make Gas Connection

To Assemble Pressure Regulator:

1. Using 2 or more people, stand the cooktop on its side or

back.

2. Connect the flexible stainless steel connector to the pressure

regulator using a ¹⁄₂" male pipe thread adapter. A combination of pipe fittings must be used to connect the

cooktop to the existing gas line. Shown following is a typical connection. Your connection may be different, according to the supply line type, size and location.

■ On 48" (121.9 cm) models with both grill and griddle, use

screws “A” and “B.”

■ On 36" (91.4 cm) models with griddle only, use screws “A”

and “C.”

■ All other models use all 3 front screws.

■ On 48" (121.9 cm) models, 3 rear screws are required (not

shown).

■ On 36" (91.4 cm) models, 2 rear screws are required (not

shown).
