■ Tap e me asu re
■ Flat-blade screwdriver
■ ¹⁵⁄₁₆" combination wrench
■ Pipe wrench
■ Wrench or pliers
Parts supplied
■ Gas pressure regulator
■ Burner grates
■ Burner caps
Parts needed
Check local codes and consult gas supplier. Check existing gas
supply and electrical supply. See “Electrical Requirements” and
“Gas Supply Requirements” sections.
Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Do
not obstruct flow of combustion and ventilation air.
■ It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial rating plate is located on the underside of the
cooktop base.
■ Marker or pencil
■ Pipe-joint compound
resistant to LP gas
■ Noncorrosive leak-detection
solution
■ The cooktop must be a specified cooktop that is approved to
be installed either alone or over an undercounter built-in
oven. Check the cooktop base approved installation label for
your cooktop model number and approved combinations of
cooktops and ovens that can be installed. If you do not find
this label, your cooktop may not be approved for use over an
undercounter built-in oven. Contact your dealer to confirm
that your cooktop is approved.
■ Ovens approved for this type of installation will have an
approval label located on the top of the oven. If you do not
find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your oven is
approved. Refer to oven manufacturer’s Installation
Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and
proper cutout dimensions.
■ The cooktop should be installed in a location away from
strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong
heating vents or fans.
■ All openings in the wall or floor where cooktop is to be
installed must be sealed.
■ Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.
Given dimensions are minimum clearances.
■ Grounded electrical supply is required. See “Electrical
Requirements” section. Proper gas supply connection must
be available. See “Gas Supply Requirements” section.
■ The cooktop is designed to hang from the countertop by its
side or rear flanges.
■ The gas and electric supply should be located as shown in
“Cabinet Dimensions” section so that they are accessible
without requiring removal of the cooktop.
■ Provide cutout in right rear corner of cutout enclosure as
shown to provide clearance for gas inlet, power supply cord,
and to allow the rating label to be visible.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, check with your builder or
cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not
discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.
Mobile Home - Additional Installation Requirements
The installation of this cooktop must conform to the
A. Model/serial rating plate
■ To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage space located above the
surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond
the bottom of the cabinets.
Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title
24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile
Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280). When
such standard is not applicable, use the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or
with local codes.
In Canada, the installation of this cooktop must conform with the
current standards CAN/CSA-A240-latest edition, or with local

NOTES: After making the countertop cutout, some installations
may require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear
the cooktop base. To avoid this modification, use a base cabinet
with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 4" (10.2 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required. The drawer depth may need to be shortened
to avoid interfering with the regulator.
IMPORTANT: If an undercounter built-in wall oven is to be
installed below this cooktop, the grounded outlet (H) and gas
supply piping must be located in an adjacent cabinet.
This cooktop and its gas and electrical supply sources must be
installed before the undercounter built-in wall oven is installed.

Electrical 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.

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:

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” on a separate sheet. The wiring diagrams
are located on the left underside of the cooktop base.
Gas Supply Requirements
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 “LP Gas Conversion”
instructions provided in the package containing literature.
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.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
■ If local codes permit, use a ¹⁄₂" or ³⁄₄" I.D. flexible stainless
®†
tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing size should be
steel tubing gas connector, designed by CSA to connect
the cooktop to the rigid gas supply 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.
■ 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.
