Before you start...

Proper installation is your responsibility. Make sure you have everything necessary for correct installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with the installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate can be found on the bottom of the cooktop.

Check location where cooktop will be installed. The location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents or fans. The cooktop should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.

When installing a cooktop under existing cabinets and the installation does not meet the minimum cabinet clearances, install a range hood above the cooktop to avoid burn hazards.

requirements

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Explosion Hazard

Use a new AGA 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 11” 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.

This i:stallation must conform with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installations must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 2223.1 - latest edition (See **,

Panel A.)

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level. (For the USA only.)

If local codes and ordinances permit, A.G.A.

design-certified, flexible metal tubing is

recommended for connecting this cooktop to the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage the flexible tubing when moving the cooktop. A 3/8” (.95 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to pressure regulator female pipe threads.

shutoff valve

The supply line shall be equipped with an approved shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the cooktop and 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 appliance.

If rigitpipe is used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used to obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop. All strains must be removed from

the supply and fuel lines so cooktop will be

level and in line.

The regulator must be checked at a minimum

1 -inch (2.5 cm) water column above the set

pressure. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for operation:

NATURAL GAS: Set pressure -

Supply pressure - 7 to 14 inches

L.P. GAS:

Set pressure Supply pressure - 11 inches

6 inches (15.2 cm) W.C.

(17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) maximum W.C.

10 inches

(25.4

(27.9 cm) W.C.

Line Pressure Testing:

Testing above 112 psi (3.5kPa) (gauge) The cooktop and its individual must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than

l/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

Testing at l/2 psi (3.5kPa) (gauge) or

lower -

The cooktop 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

requirements

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

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

Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure whether the cooktop is properly grounded.

Do Not ground to a gas pipe. A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere for

KGCS1005 models (20-ampere for KGCG2605 models), fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit

breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper grounding and polarity are necessary. In addition to checking that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is correctly grounded, the outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician to see if it is wired with correct polarity.

A wiring diagram is provided on the back cover of Installation Instructions. The wiring diagram is also located on the underside of the cooktop control panel.

Recommended ground method

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSVNFPA 70 - latest edition (see’, Panel A) and local codes and ordinances. See Figure 1. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Figure 1

This Fooktop is equipped for use with NATURAL gas. The model/serial rating plate, located on the bottom of the cooktop, has information on the type of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, see your KitchenAid dealer or authorized parts distributor.

Provide a gas supply line of 314” (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the cooktop location. A smaller size pipe on long runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds, made for use with NATURAL and L.P. gas, must be used.
