Grounding Instructions
IMPORTANT Please read carefully.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-
prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-
prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 7) to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the
appliance.
The supply line should be equipped with an approved
shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same
room as the cooktop and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access
to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.
Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few
minutes for gas to move through the gas line.
Check for leaks. Leak testing of the appliance shall
be conducted according to the manufacturer's
instructions. After connecting the cooktop to the gas
supply, 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.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks
from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame
may result in a fire or explosion.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Check alignment of valves after connecting the
cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the cooktop
manifold pipe has not been moved.
Disconnect this cooktop and its individual shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column).
Electrical Requirements
120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Do not use an extension cord with this cooktop.

2. Turn on Electrical Power and Open Main Shutoff
Gas Valve
3. Check the Igniters
Operation of electric igniters should be checked after
cooktop and supply line connectors have been
carefully checked for leaks and the cooktop has
been connected to electric power.
To operate the surface burner:
A. Push in and turn a surface burner knob to the
LITE position. You will hear a ticking noise; this
is the sound of the electric ignitor which lights
the burner.
B. After the burner lights, turn to the desired flame
size. The controls do not have to be set at a
particular mark. Use the marks as a guide and
adjust the flame as needed.
4. Adjust the "LO" or "SIMMER" Setting of Surface
Burner Valves (see Figure 9)
Push in and turn each control knob to the "LO" (or
"SIMMER") setting. The "LO" setting of each
burner has been set at the factory to the lowest
setting available to provide reliable reignition of the
burner. If it does not stay lit on the "LO" setting,
check the setting as follows.
Be careful when performing this
operation.
A. Allow cooktop to cool to room temperature.
B. Light all burners by turning each control knob to
LITE until burners ignite, and then set them at
"HI".
C. Quickly turn the knob to the LOWEST POSITION.
D. If burner goes out, readjust valve as follows:
Remove the surface burner control knob, insert a
thin-bladed screw driver into the hollow valve
stem and engage the slotted screw inside. Flame
size can be increased or decreased with the turn
of the screw. To increase flame size turn the
screw counterclockwise and to decrease turn
clockwise. Adjust flame until you can quickly
turn knob from HI to LOWEST POSITION without
extinguishing the flame. Flame should be as
small as possible without going out.
E. If you need to adjust another burner, repeat the
steps from A to D above until all burners operate
properly.
Checking Operation
Refer to the Use and Care Guide packaged with the
cooktop for operating instructions and for care and
cleaning of your cooktop.
Do not touch the burners. They may be
hot enough to cause burns.
1. Install Burner Caps
This cooktop is equipped with sealed burners as
shown (see Figure 8).
A. Unpack your burner heads and burner caps.
B. Place burner head over each gas orifice,
matching the head with the orifice size. Be
careful not to damage the electrode while
placing the head over the orifice. Make sure
electrode fits correctly into slot in burner head.
C. Place a burner cap on each burner head,
matching the cap size to the head size. Each
burner cap has an inner locating ring which
centers the cap correctly on the burner head.
D. Be sure that all the burner caps and burner
heads are correctly placed BEFORE using your
cooktop.
