INSTALLATION NOTES
Refer to the illustrations and specifications
for overall dimensions, finished rough opening
dimensions and installation specifics.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Caution must be used in
planning the proper installation of the Wolf gas
rangetop to avoid any fires or damage to
adjacent cabinetry or kitchen equipment. Be
sure to follow minimum clearances established
in the finished rough opening dimensions as
shown in the illustration on page 4.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In non-island applications,
a riser is required when installing a gas rangetop
against a combustible surface.
The platform for the rangetop must be 3/4"
(19) thick and include a cut-out at the right rear
for gas supply and electrical connections. The
platform must be level to ensure that the
cooking surface is level.
A Wolf Pro ventilation hood or hood liner is
recommended. When installing a ventilation
hood, refer to the specific requirements of the
hood for the minimum dimension to countertop.
Also refer to the ventilation recommendation
charts in the Pro ventilation section of our
website, wolfappliance.com.
The Wolf gas rangetop requires a 110/120 V
AC, 50/60 Hz electrical supply to operate the
electronic ignition system. The 6' (1.8 m) power
supply cord provided with the rangetop is
equipped with a 3-prong, grounded plug for
protection against shock hazard. The service
should have its own 15 amp circuit breaker.
Locate electrical within the shaded area shown
in the illustration on page 4.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended and may
cause interruption of operation.
Wolf gas rangetops are designed to operate
on natural gas at 5" (12.5 mb) WC (water
column) pressure or LP gas at 10" (25 mb) WC
pressure. The minimum line pressure for natural
gas is 7" (17.5 mb) WC and 11" (27.4 mb) WC
for LP gas. The maximum gas supply pressure
to the regulator should never exceed 14" (34.9
mb) WC; .5 psi (3.5 kPa).
Wolf recommends the use of a 1/2" (13) I.D.
commercial type flex hose; this is the minimum
size that may be used. All plumbing to the flex
hose must be 3/4" (19) minimum I.D. pipe.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A separate external gas
shut-off valve must be located near the range in
an accessible location.
You must follow all National Electrical Code
and gas regulations. In addition, be aware of
local codes and ordinances when installing
your services.
Wolf gas rangetops using natural gas
function up to an altitude of 8,000' (2438 m)
without any adjustment. Natural gas and LP gas
installations from 8,000' (2438 m) to 11,000'
(3353 m) need the high altitude kit. Contact
your Wolf dealer for details. To obtain local
dealer information, visit the Showroom Locator
section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
Refer to the installation instructions
shipped with each Wolf product for detailed
specifications.
