Gas Supply Requirements
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.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
If local codes permit, use a ¹⁄₂" or ³⁄₄" I.D. flexible stainless
steel tubing gas connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line.
A ½" male pipe thread is needed for connection to the
female pipe threads of the inlet to the cooktop 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.
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 manufacturer’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. If
converting to LP gas, see the following “LP Gas Conversion” section. 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 ³⁄₄" (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 ½" minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.

Gas Supply Pressure Testing
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).
For elevations above 6,560 ft (1999.5 m) a high altitude kit is needed to avoid any reduced power output. See separate LP gas conversion instructions sheet.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Cooktop for Installation
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.
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on the model/serial rating plate.
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).
