Advance Preparation
• For proper operation of a gas appliance, the air necessary for the combustion of the gas must be able to ow into the
room naturally. The air must ow into the room directly through openings in the outside walls. These openings must
have an unobstructed cross-section not less than 2m3/h for each kw of power (see total power in kw on the appliance).
• This opening must be constructed so that it will not be obstructed from inside or outside, or constructed close to the
oor. The opening is recommended to be on the side opposite to that on which the ue gases are discharged.
• Avoid placing cabinetry directly above cooktop when possible. If cabinetry is used above cooking surface, use
cabinets no more than 13” deep (see Figure 2).
• Working areas adjacent to the cooktop should have 18” minimum clearance between countertop and cabinet bottom.
• Make sure the wall coverings, countertop and cabinets around the cooktop can withstand heat (up to 200º F)
generated by the cooktop.
• Maintain 30” minimum clearance between cooktop surface and cabinets installed above the cooktop.
Provide an Adequate Gas and Electrical Supply
• Gas supply should be located near the opening for this cooktop and be a minimum of 1” from the back wall (see Figure
3). This cooktop is set for natural gas and is designed to operate at 5” water column pressure. The regulator is required
to provide a minimum of 6” water column to a maximum of 14” water column to the cooktop regulator.

STEP 5
Installing the Pressure Regulator
This cooktop is set for natural gas and is designed to
operate at 5” water column pressure. The gas supply is
required to provide a minimum of 6” to a maximum of 14”
water column pressure to the cooktop regulator.
If the cooktop is converted for liquid petroleum (LP) gas, the
LP gas supply is required to provide a minimum of 10” to a
maximum of 14” water column to the cooktop regulator.
The pressure regulator must be connected in series with the
manifold of the cooktop and must remain in series with the
supply line regardless the type of gas being used.
Installation
WARNINGS:
• Neverreuseoldflexibleconnectors.Theuseof
old flexible connectors can cause gas leakage and
personal injury. Always use new flexible connectors
when installing a gas appliance. To reduce the
possibility of gas leakage, apply Teflon tape or a
thread compound approved for use with LP or Natural
gases to all threaded connections.
WARNINGS:
• Thegassupplylinemustbeequippedwithan
approved manual shut-off valve. In an easily
accessible location in the same room as the cooktop.
Do not block access to the shutoff valve. Be sure you
know how and where to shut off the gas supply to
the cooktop. Install the electrical outlet 12” below the
countertop (see Figure 8).
Figure 8
u
The gas inlet is located on the bottom of the cooktop
at the rear and 8 ½” from the right hand edge of the
cooktop. Make gas connection through rear wall, or
on cabinet oor at rear. Install the house gas supply at
least 1” from the back wall.
vWhen installing, t a safety tap at the end of the pipeline. The appliance leaves the factory tested and
set for natural gas. Make sure that the type of gas
to be supplied to the appliance is the same as that
shown on the label afxed to the underside of the
cooktop.
w
Make the connection to the gas system using a
rigid ½” or ¾” metal pipe and regulation unions, or
with a stainless-steel hose complying with the local
standard. If metal hoses are used, take care that
they do not come into contact with mobile parts and
are not crushed. This must also be checked if the
cooktop is to be combined with an oven.
xThe gas intake connection of the appliance has a “male thread.” When making the connection,
take care not to apply stresses of any kind to the
appliance. Over-tightening may crack the regulator
resulting in a gas leak and possible re or explosion
(see Figure 9).
yOnce regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to
move through the gas line.
UAfter connecting the cooktop to the gas supply, make sure all burners knobs are in the OFF position
and check the system for leaks with a manometer. If
a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply
and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at
all joints and connections to check for leaks.

Installation
The electrode of the electronic ignition system is positioned above the surface of the burner base. Do not remove a burner
cap or touch the electrode of a burner while another is turned on. Damage or electrical shock may occur.
STEP 7
Assembling the Burners
uPlace burner heads over the burner base. Make sure the hole in the burner head is properly aligned with
the electrode in the burner base (see Figure 11).
vPlace the burner caps on the burner heads. Make sure that the burner caps are properly seated on the
burner head (see Figure 12).
w
Operation of the electric igniters should be tested
after the cooktop and supply line have been
carefully checked for leaks and the cooktop has
been connected to the electrical power. To check
igniters, push and turn a burner valve to the LITE
position. All spark igniters will make a series of
sparks (ticking sounds), but only the burner turned
to LITE will light.

Adjust Burner Flames
u
Turn all burners on highest setting and check the
ames. They should be blue in color and may have
some yellow tipping at the ends of the ame when
using LP gas. Foreign particles in the gas line may
cause an orange ame at rst, but this will soon
disappear.
vTurn the cooktop burner knob to “LO” while observing the ame.
wAdjustments must be made with two other burners in operation on a medium setting. This prevents the
upper row of ames from being set too low, resulting
in the ame being extinguished when other burners
are turned on.
• To adjust the ame, remove the knobs, insert a screwdriver
through the access hole in valve shaft as shown (see Figure
22). Make the adjustment by slowly turning the screw until
ame appearance is correct.
• If the ames are too small or uttered, open the valve more
than the original setting.
• If the ames are too large, close the valve more than the
original setting.
Testing Flame Stability
Test 1——Turn the knob from “HI” to “LO” quickly. If the upper row of ames goes out at this setting, increase the ame size and
test again.
Test 2——With the burner on “LO”, open and close the cabinet door under the cooktop. If the ame is extinguished by the air
currents created by the door movement, increase the ame height and test again.
Flame Re-Check
After the adjustment is made, turn all burners off. Ignite each burner individually. Observe the ame at the “HI” position. Rotate
the knob to the lowest setting and be sure that the ame size decreases as the knob is rotated counter-clockwise.
WARNINGS:
Once the conversion has been completed and has passed testing, fill out the conversion sticker and include your name,
organization and the date conversion is made. Apply the sticker near the cooktop gas inlet opening to alert others in the
future that this appliance has been converted. If converting back to Natural Gas, please remove the sticker so others know
that the appliance is set to use its original gas.

surface control knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool,
the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too
hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fry too much food
at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Flame Size
WARNING:
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the
utensil (see Figure 23). A higher flame simply wastes
heat and energy, and increases your risk of being
burned by the flame.
Proper Burner Adjustments
• The color of the ame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good ame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-
lighted room. Each cone of ame should be steady and sharply dened. Adjust or clean burner if ame is yellow-orange.
To clean burners, see instructions under Care and Cleaning.

Operation
Placement of Burner Heads and Caps
For all burners:
• Place a burner cap on each burner head (see Figure
25), matching the cap size to the head size. The cap for
each burner has an inner locating ring which centers
the cap correctly on the burner head. Be sure that all
the burner caps and burner heads are correctly placed
BEFORE using your appliance.
• Make sure each burner cap is properly aligned and level
(see Figure 26).
Surface Cooking Utensils
• For lower gas consumption and better efciency: Use only at-bottomed pans of
dimensions suitable for the burners, as shown in the table below. Check for atness
by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the pan. There should be no gaps between
the pan and ruler. As soon as a liquid comes to a boil take care to turn the ame down to a
level that will just keep it simmering.
• Specialty pans (lobster pots and pressure cookers) may be used but must conform to the
recommended cookware requirements.
WARNING:
Turn the burner on to determine if it will light. If the
burner does not light, contact a qualified service
center. Do not service the sealed burner yourself.
WARNING:
During cooking processes involving fats or oils, watch your foods carefully because these substances may catch fire if
brought to high temperatures.
