IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this cooktop must conform with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54 in the United States, or in Canada, with
the Canadian Fuel Gas Code, CAN/CGA B149
and CAN/CGA B149.2.
When installed in a manufactured (mobile)
home installation must conform with the
Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standard, title 24 CFR, part 3280 [Formerly
the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD (part
280)] or, when such standard is not applicable,
the Standard for Manufactured Home
Installation, ANSI/NCSBCS A225.1 or with local
codes where applicable.
This cooktop has been design certified by CSA
International. As with any appliance using gas
and generating heat, there are certain safety
precautions you should follow. You will find them
in the Use and Care Guide, read it carefully.
* Be sure your cooktop is installed and
grounded properly by a qualified installer or
service technician.
* This cooktop must be electrically grounded
in accordance with local codes or, in their
absence, with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition in
the United States, or in Canada, with the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 Part 1.
* The burners can be lit manually during an
electrical power outage. To light a burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head, then
slowly turn the Surface Control knob to LITE.
Use caution when lighting burners manually.
* Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above the cooktop. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the cooktop to
reach items.
* To eliminate the need to reach over the
surface burners, cabinet storage space above
the burners should be avoided.
¢ Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
* Never use your cooktop for warming or
heating the room. Prolonged use of the
cooktop without adequate ventilation can be
hazardous.
* Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids near this or any
other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
The electrical power to the cooktop
must be shut off while gas line connections are
being made. Failure to do so could result in
serious injury or death.

2. Cooktop Installation
1. Visually inspect the cooktop for damage.
2. Set the cooktop into the countertop cutout.
After inserting the cooktop into the countertop opening,
make sure the unit is sifting on the metal flange around
the top of the burner box. Cooktop must not sit on the
glass or the porcelain top. Avoid cutting an oversized
hole in the countertop.
NOTE: Do not use caulking compound; cooktop should
be removable for service when needed.
Granite countertop Installation Kit
A Granite Countertop Installation kit # 903103-9010 can
be ordered through a Sears Service Center.
Clamp Down Information
Once the cooktop is installed in the counter opening,
you must clamp the unit down as shown.
Seal
Cooktop se
\ = | Countertop
- Screw
Figure 6
To clamp down, insert an angle bracket into the slot
on each side of the unit as shown. Run thumb screw
up through the bracket, up against the bottom of the
counter. Tighten until the unit draws down and is secure.
3. Provide an Adequate Gas Supply
This cooktop is designed to operate on natural gas at 4"
of manifold pressure only.
A pressure regulator is connected in series with the
manifold on the cooktop and must remain in series with
the supply line.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the
regulator must be no more than 14" of water column
(W.C.} pressure.
For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at
least 1" (or 2.5 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold
pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" of manifold
pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 5".
The gas supply line to the range should be 1/2" or 3/4"
pipe.
4. LP/Propane Gas Conversion
This appliance can be used with Natural gas or LP/
Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory for use with
natural gas.
A kit for converting to LP gas is supplied with your
cooktop. The kit is marked "FOR LP/PROPANE GAS
CONVERSION",
The conversion must be performed by a qualified
service technician in accordance with the kit instructions
and all local codes and requirements. Failure to follow
instructions could result in serious injury or property
damage. The qualified agency performing this work
assumes responsibility for the conversion.
WINER Failure to make the appropriate
conversion can result in serious personal injury and
property damage.
Important: Remove all packing material and literature
from cooktop before connecting gas and electrical
supply to cooktop.

5. Install Pressure Regulator
Install the pressure regulator with the arrow on the
regulator pointing up toward the unit in a position
where you can reach the access cap.
PIII «Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.

Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural

flexible connectors are used, be certain connectors are
not kinked.
The supply line must be equipped with an approved
manual 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.

Figure 8
Once 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.
Check for leaks. 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
waiter) at all joints and connections to check for leaks.
PWG] 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 control knob valves after
connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the
cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment
could cause the valve stems to rub on the control panel,
resulting in a gas leak at the valve.
Disconnect this cooktop and its individual manual
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"water column).
lsolate 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"
water column).

(For 30° & 36” Models)
6. 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.
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 9) to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from
the appliance.
The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed,
it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded
3-prong wall receptacle.
Preferred Method
Do not, under any
circumstances,
cul, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
Grounding type

CNWAGOTe] Disconnect electrical supply cord
from wall receptacle before servicing cooktop.
7. Check Operation
Refer to the Use and Care Guide packaged with the
cooktop for operating instructions and for care and
cleaning of your cooktop.
1. Remove foam caps.
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 small 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 ata
particular mark. Use the marks as a guide and
adjust the flame as needed.
