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.
Do not ground the cooktop to any gas line or gas pipe.
This cooktop is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not
operate if plugged into an outlet that is not proper 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 and
wire gauge is in accordance with local codes.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02169-7471
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
A 120 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 A, 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 is provided.

16
Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120 V
power and is correctly grounded.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
technician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded. Do not modify the power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

17
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the cooktop must be conducted according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
TYPE OF GAS
Natural Gas:
This cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural gas. 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 performed by a qualified service technician. The qualified
agency performing this work assumes the gas conversion responsibility.
No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on
the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting
the serving gas supplier. See "GAS CONVERSION" section.
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. With LP gas, piping
or tubing size can be 1/2" (1.3 cm) minimum. Usually, LP gas suppliers
determine the size and materials used in the system.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
•If local codes permit, a new CSA design-certified, 4 - 5 ft (122 - 152.4 cm)
long, 1/2" (1.3 cm) or 3/4" (1.9 cm) I.D., flexible metal appliance connector
may be used for connecting cooktop to the gas supply line.
•A 1/2" (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to the female pipe
threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator.
•Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the cooktop.

18
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.
Gas shutoff valve:
A manual gas line shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible
location. Do not block access to shut-off valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the cooktop.
GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must be used. The inlet
pressure to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:
TYPE OF GAS MINIMUM PRESSURE MAXIMUM PRESSURE
Natural gas 4" WCP 14" WCP
LP gas 10" WCP 14" WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.
Burner Input Requirements
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).
