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 package containing literature. The model/
serial rating plate located on the left underside of the
cooktop burner 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. To
convert to LP gas, use the LP gas conversion kit provided
with the cooktop and see the “Gas Conversions” section.

Electrical:

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.

Because Whirlpool Corporation policy includes a continuous commitment to improve
our products, we reserve the right to change materials and specifications without notice.

Dimensions are for planning purposes only. For complete details, see Installation
Instructions packed with product. Specifications subject to change without notice.
