[_ CHECK FOR LEAKS
Before testing for leaks, make sure all burner knobs
are in the OFF position.
After connecting the cooktop to gas, check system
for leaks with a 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 leaks.
Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAHE TO CHECK FOR
LEAKS!
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
greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
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 (3.5 kPa).

A,WARNING - Disconnect all electrical
power at the main circuit breaker or fuse box
before installing.
r_ EXTENSION CORDS
Becauseof potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord. However, if you still
elect to usean extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a ULlisted ]-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord and that the
current carrying rating of the cord in amperes be
equivalent to or greater than the branch circuit
rating. Such extension cords are obtainable
through your local appliance dealer.
IMPORTANT: (Pleaseread carefully)FOR
PERSONAL SAFETY,THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED.
[Z] ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AND OUTLET
An adequate electrical supply and outlet must
be used to operate the electrical parts of your
cooktop.
[]
B]
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which must
be used with a properly grounded 3-hole
outlet with a standard 120 Volt, 60 cycle AC
household current.
If you do not have a 3-hole grounded outlet,
have a qualified electrician change your old
one.
[] A grounding adaptor will be needed to convert
the old one until the outlet can be replaced.
This method is only temporary, and a qualified
electrician should test it to be sure it meets
requirements.
Insure proper
ground and
firm connection
before use
r_ TWO-PRONG WALL RECEPTACLE
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with
a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove
grounding prong from the cooktop cord. Failure
to provide proper polarization may create a
hazardous condition.

Installation Instructions
USAGE SITUATIONS WHERE
APPLIANCE POWER CORD
WILL BE DISCONNECTED
INFREOUENTLY
For 15 amp circuit only. Do not use an adaptor
on a 20 amp circuit. Where local codes permit, a
TEHPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall receptacle by the use of a
UL-listed adaptor available at most hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adaptor must be aligned with
the large slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
Ensure proper ground and firm
connection before use
Align Iorge
prongs/slots
Temporary Method
(Adaptor plugs not permitted in Canada)
Ar-AI l'T'i,,_ L I
AIL_.,/'_U/IUI_I: Attaching the adaptor ground
terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the screw is metal, and
not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The customer should have
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adaptor, always hold the adaptor with one hand. If
this is not done, the adaptor ground terminal is very
likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen,
DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has
again been established.
Usage situation where appliance power cord will be
disconnected frequently.
Do not use an adaptor plug in these situations
because disconnection of the power cord places
undue strain on the adaptor and leads to eventual
failure of the adaptor ground terminal. The customer
should have the 2-prong receptacle replaced with
a 3-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified
electrician before using the appliance.

NAKING THE LP CONVERSION (CONT.)
ADJUST BURNER FLANES
Turn all burners full on and check the flames.
They should be blue in color with some yellow
tipping at the ends of the flame. Foreign
particles in the gas line may cause an orange
flame at first, but this will soon disappear.
NOTE:For the 15,000 BTU/HR burner (on some
models) the cooktop burner knob should be
turned to the setting before the lowest setting.
This will ensure that the entire burner is
operating.
r_ Turn the cooktop burner knob to the lowest
setting while observing the flame.
Adjust the low flame setting using the valve bypass
screw as follows:
Low-setting adjustments must be made with two
other burners in operation on a medium setting.
This prevents the low flame from being set too low,
resulting in the flame being extinguished when
other burners are turned on.
E] To adjust the flame, remove the knobs. Insert
a screwdriver through the access hole in valve
switch. Engage
adjustment screw in
