conform with local codes, or in the absence of local
codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 USA or current CAN/CGA-B149
INSTALLATION CODE.

of gas for which it is designed.
This appliance was adjusted at the factory for use with
natural gas. If, at any time, this appliance is to be used
with a different type of gas, all of the conversion
adjustments described in the installation instructions
must be made by a qualified service technician before
attempting to operate the cooktop on that gas. Natural
gas should be supplied to the appliance pressure
regulator at a line pressure between 6" – 14" of water
column or, if converted for LP gas, between 11"– 14".
All supply piping, except as noted, should use common
National Pipe Thread (N.P.T.). For all pipe connections
use an approved pipe joint compound resistant to the
action of LP gas.
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff
valve. This valve should be located in the same room but
external to the range. It should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing.
