In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts
This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or
gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
A "T" handle type manual gas valve must be installed in
the gas supply line to this appliance.
A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed a
length of three (3) feet / 36 inches.
All supply piping, except as noted, should use common
National Pipe Thread (N.P.T.). For all pipe connections
use an approved pipe joint compound resistant to the
action of LP gas.
CAUTION: Warranty is void on Maytag equipment
installed other than as recommended by manufacturer.
This appliance is designed for use with the appliance gas
pressure regulator supplied with this appliance. It must be
installed in the gas line ahead of the gas manifold
entrance. It is preset for use with natural gas and must be
converted, as described on pages 8 and 9, for use with
LP gas. (See figures 7 - 12).
This appliance is designed to operate at a pressure of 5
inches of water column (36² models), 4 inches of water
column (30² models) on natural gas or, if converted for
use with LP gas (propane or butane), 10 inches water
column. Make sure this appliance is supplied with and
adjusted for the type of gas for which it is designed.
This appliance was adjusted at the factory for use with
natural gas. If, at any time, this appliance is to be used
with a different type of gas, all of the conversion
adjustments described on pages 8 and 9 must be made
by a qualified service technician before attempting to
operate the cooktop on that gas. Natural gas should be
supplied to the appliance pressure regulator at a line
pressure between 6 and 14 inches of water column or, if
converted for LP gas, between 11 and 14 inches.
WARNING
If the line pressure supplying the appliance pressure
regulator exceeds 14² water column (any gas), an
external regulator must be installed in the gas line ahead
of the appliance regulator to reduce the pressure to no
more than 14² water column. Failure to do this can result
in malfunction and damage to the appliance.
Insure this appliance is adjusted for the type of gas
supplied to it and that the gas supply pressure to the
appliance regulator is within the proper pressure range.
