Gas Supply Pressure

CAUTION
To avoid property damage, maximum gas supply
pressure must not exceed 14" WCP.
• Appliance and individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of ½ psig (3.5kPa)(14" WCP).
• Appliance must be isolated from gas supply piping
system by closing manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5kPa)
(14" WCP).
• Gas supply pressure for checking regulator setting
must be at least 1" WCP above manifold pressure
shown on rating label.
• Must use pressure regulator supplied with cooktop.

Pressure Regulator Connection

Connect pressure regulator directly to gas manifold.
Manifold exits cooktop in right rear corner. Locate
pressure regulator according to gas supply location.
• Support regulator when installing gas supply.
• Do not overtighten regulator when attaching to gas
manifold pipe. Overtightening may crack regulator.
• Do not overtighten fitting or hard pipe when attaching
to gas regulator. Overtightening may crack regulator.

Gas Supply Location

Locate gas supply so manual shutoff valve is
accessible after installation. Gas supply can be
installed in adjacent cabinet or behind access panel.

Gas Connection

To avoid property damage or personal injury, only use
a new flexible connector that is AGA/CGA design
certified.
• Do not use an old connector.
• Do not reuse a connector after moving
appliance.
To avoid property damage or personal injury, do not
use LP/propane gas to fuel this cooktop. Cooktop is
not convertible to LP/propane gas.
Connect gas supply to regulator using hard pipe or a
flexible connector. Pressure regulator supplied with
this appliance has a ½-inch NPT female connection.
• A manual shutoff, not supplied with cooktop, must be
installed in an accessible location outside of cooktop.
• Use joint compound that is resistant to action of
propane gas on all male pipe threads.
• Use supplied pressure regulator only.
• Do not overtighten gas fitting when attaching to
pressure regulator. Overtightening may crack
regulator.
• Support pressure regulator with wrench when
installing gas fitting.
