WARNING
This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could
cause bodily injury or property damage.
CAUTION
•
•
Be sure the wall coverings around the cooktop can
withstand heat generated by the cooktop up to 200°F.
IMPORTANT: Remove all packing material and
literature before connecting gas and electrical supply.
Avoid placing cabinets above the cooktop.
•
•
Let your cooktop installed by a qualified installer.
To minimize the hazard caused by reaching over the
open flames of operating burners, install a ventilation
hood over the cooktop that projects forward at least
5” beyond the front of the cabinets.
Your cooktop must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition). In

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
•
The ventilating hood must be constructed of sheet
metal not less than 0.0122” thick. Install above the
cooktop with a clearance of not less than 1/4”
between the hood and the underside of the
combustible material or metal cabinet. The hood
must be at least as wide as the appliance and
centered over the appliance. Clearance between
the cooking surface and the ventilation hood surface
MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 24 INCHES.
• The vertical distance from the plane of the cooking
surface to the bottom of adjacent overhead cabinets
extending closer than 1” to the plane of the cooktop
sides must not be less than 18”. (See the
Dimensions and Clearances illustration in this
manual.)
Do not abstruct the combustion or ventilation air.
•
•
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven
or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform
to the installation instructions packed with that
appliance.
CAUTION:
Items of interest to children
should not be placed in cabinets above the cooktop.
- children climbing on the cooktop to reach items
could be seriously injured.
• If cabinets are located above the cooktop, allow a
minimum clearance of 30” between the cooking
surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.
• If a 30” clearance between cooking surface and
overhead combustible material or metal cabinets
cannot be maintained, protect the underside of the
cabinets above the cooktop with not less than 1/4”
insulating millboard covered with sheet metal not
less than 0.0122” thick. Clearance between the
cooking surface and protected cabinets MUST
NEVER BE LESS THAN 24 INCHES.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY
This cooktop is designed to operate at a pressure
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between
of 5” of water column on natural gas or 10” of water 10” and 13” of water column.
column on LP, propan or butane gas.
When checking for correct operation of the regulator,
the inlet pressure must be at least 1” more than the
Make sure you are supplying your cooktop with the operating -manifold- pressure as given above.
type of gas for which it is designed.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the
cooktop manifold must remain in the supply line
regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used.
This cooktop is convertible for use on natural or
propane gas. When using this cooktop on LP gas,
conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer
before attempting to operate the cooktop on that
gas.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect
the cooktop to the gas supply line must have an
I.D. of 5/8” and can be 3 feet in length easily for
installation. In Canada, flexible connectors should
be single wall metal connectors less than 6 feet
in length.
For correct operation, the pressure of natural gas
supplied to the regulator should between 5” and
13” of water column.
2. CONNECT THE COOKTOP TO GAS
Shut off the main gas supply valve before
removing the old cooktop and leave it off until the
new hook-up has been completed. Don’t forget to
relight the pilot on other gas appliances when you
turn the gas back on.
Install male 1/2” or 3/4” flare union adapter to the
3
NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve,
taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep
it from turning.
Connect flexible metal connector to the adapter
on the cooktop. Position cooktop to permit
connection at the shut-off valve.
4
5
Because hard piping restricts movement of the
cooktop, the use of a CSA International-certified
flexible metal appliance connector is recommended
unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.
When all connections have been made, be
sure all cooktop controls are in the off position
and turn on the main gas supply valve.
Never reuse an old connector when installing a new
cooktop. If the hard piping method is used, you must
carefully align the pipe; the cooktop cannot be moved
after the connection is made.
Check gas leaks by using manometer.
If a manometer is not available, turn the gas supply
on to the cooktop and use a liquid leak detector
at all joints and connections to check for leak.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent
gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
To protect gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on,
all male -external- pipe threads.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas

line in an easily accessed location outside of the
cooktop. Be sure everyone operating the
cooktop knows where and how to shut off the
gas supply to the cooktop.
Disconnect the cooktop and its individual shut-off
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures
more than 1/2 psig(3.5kPa).
Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig(3.5kPa)

3. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
120 Volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated
circuit protected by a 15 A or 20 A circuit
breaker or time delay fuse.
The power cord of this appliance should be equipped
with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with
a standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to
reduce the possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
GROUNDING
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified technician to be sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.
IMPORTANT: FOR PERSONAL SAFETY,
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY
GROUNDED.
When connecting the cord of this cooktop to a
standard two-prong wall receptacle, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
three-prong wall receptacle.
PREFERRED
METHOD
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD.
A word about Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters –
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ensure proper ground
exists before use
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters are devices that
sense leakage of current in a circuit and
automatically switch off power when a threshold
leakage level is detected.
These devices must be manually reset by the
customer.
The National Electrical Code requires the use of
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters in kitchen
receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces.
Performance of the cooktop will not be affected if
it is operated from a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters
protected circuit but occasional nuisance can occur.
