INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GAS HOOK UP
The gas supply connections should be made by a qualified technician and in accordance with local codes and
n
ordinances.
Before connecting the appliance to the gas supply, make sure that the gas supply is turned off at the wall
n
valve.
See the diagrams futher below for gas connection details.
n
The cooktop and gas pressure regulator are shipped from the factory set for Natural gas or LP (Propane),
n
depending on the specific model ordered. Check the gas type label on the underside of the chassis. Before
proceeding any futher, check the type of gas supplied to the site of installation and verify that the cooktop is
compatible with it. If the cooktop is not set for the type of gas supplied to the site of installation, return it to
the dealer.
The cooktop is desgined to operate on:
n
Manifold pressure
Incoming line pressure
Check the rating label on the underside of the cooktop chassis.
The supplied gas pressure regulator can withstand a maximum incoming line pressure of 14.0" W.C. If the line
n
pressure is higher, a step-down regulator will be required.
A gas pressure regulator must be used. Never connect an unregulated gas line to this cooktop.
n
Failure to use a regulator can result in damage or personal injury.
For checking the regulator setting, the incoming line pressure must be at least 5" W.C. for Natural gas and
n
11.0" W.C for LP (Propane), i.e. at least 1.0" W.C. higher than the manifold pressure.
A manual shut-off valve (supplied by the installer) must be installed in an accessible location in the gas line
n
external to the appliance for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.
(In Massachusetts, such shut-off devices should be approved by the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers &
Gas Fitters).
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
n
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual shut-off valve
n
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The flex line for the gas supply must be new, made of metal, and approved for appliance use by a certifying
n
agency (CSA, CGA, or UL). Never use an old hose or a hose made of rubber or other synthetic material, as the
heat may cause the hose to melt and develop leaks.
The flex line for the gas supply must be 1/2" NPT, with a minimum diameter of 5/8".
n
LEAK TESTING
After final gas connection is made, turn on manual gas valve and test all connections in gas supply piping for
n
gas leaks with a soapy water solution. During this test all appliance gas valves have to be closed.
In order to avoid property damage or serious personal injury, never use a Iighted match or open flame. If a
n
leak is present, tighten joint or unscrew, apply more joint compound, tighten again and retest connection for
leak.
