Step 4 Installing The Cooktop; Step 5 Connecting The Gas; Step 6 Installing The Burner Components; Step 7 Connecting The Electrical - Dacor Epicure ESG366 Installation Instructions Manual

IMPORTANT:
1. If the electrical supply circuit
does not have a grounding-
type receptacle, it is the
responsibility of the customer
to have the existing receptacle
changed by an electrician to a
properly grounded receptacle.
2. The power supply must be
properly polarized. Reverse
polarity will result in continuous
sparking of the electrodes,
even after flame ignition. If the
power supply is not properly
polarized, it is the responsibility
of the customer to have the
polarity corrected.
3. If there is any doubt as to
whether the wall receptacle
is properly grounded or
polarized, have it checked by
a qualified electrician prior to
installing the cooktop.
4. Do not plug the cooktop into
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) receptacles. The
cooktop spark ignition module
can cause a GFCI to trip.
Installing the Cooktop
IMPORTANT:
Do not use a hardening compound
or caulking to permanently seal the
cooktop into place, as the unit must
be readily removable for service.
If such a hardening compound is
used, removal of the unit will be at
the customer's expense.
Place and center the cooktop within the cutout.
Secure the cooktop to the countertop utilizing
the two (2) hold-down 1/4" x 20 x 1 1/2" bolts
and flat washers provided. Do not over-tighten
the bolts.
Connecting the Gas
WARNINGS:
1. The maximum gas supply
pressure to the regulator must
not exceed 1/2 pound per
square inch.
2. Verify that the proper gas
supply has been provided.
3. Do not apply excessive
pressure when tightening
connections and fittings.

4. Do not use plumber's putty or
Teflon tape on gas compression
connections. It can defeat
the proper sealing of these
fittings. Use plumber's putty or
Teflon tape only on pipe thread
fittings.
5. Turn all cooktop control valves
to the "OFF" position, then turn
on the gas supply. Check all
supply lines and connections
for leaks using a soap and
water solution. Do not use a
flame to check for leaks. After
verifying that there are no gas
leaks, turn off the gas supply
to the cooktop by turning the
gas shut-off valve to the off
position. Leak testing of the
appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
6. For LP gas installations, the
LP gas tank must have its own
high-pressure regulator. This
is in addition to the pressure
regulator supplied with the
cooktop.
The gas inlet for the cooktop is located on the
bottom, at the right rear of the chassis. Attach
the gas pressure regulator (included with the
cooktop) to the cooktop pipe nipple inlet. For
tight installations, the regulator may be installed
upstream from the pipe nipple, anywhere
between the shut-off valve and the cooktop.
Install a gas shut-off valve (not included with
the cooktop) in the main gas supply line in
an accessible location under the cooktop.
Complete connection of the gas supply to
the cooktop by installing 1/2 inch flexible gas
line (not included with the cooktop) between
the pressure regulator and the shut-off valve.
The ESG has a 3/4" (19mm) diameter pipe
nipple inlet. All models are compatible with 1/2"
(13mm) house piping.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent damage to the gas
pressure regulator, install the
regulator only after the cooktop is
mounted in its permanent position.
Ensure that the arrow on the
regulator points in the direction of
the gas flow towards the cooktop.
Installing the Burner Components
Remove the brass burner rings, porcelain burner
caps, and porcelain grates from their shipping
packages. Place each burner ring onto its
corresponding burner base, being certain that
the five alignment tabs slide into the matching
notches in the base. Set each porcelain burner
cap on top of its corresponding burner ring.
Place each grate onto the cooktop, being certain
that the rubber feet are positioned in the locating
dimples.

Burner Components
WARNING:
Never attempt to operate the
cooktop with any of the burner
rings, burner caps or grates
removed.
Connecting the Electrical
WARNINGS:
1. Do not use or attempt to use
this appliance in the event of a
power failure.
2. Verify that the proper electrical
power supply has been
provided.
3. Verify that the electrical
supply matches the ratings
found on the appliance data
plate (located on the rear of
the cooktop chassis) before
proceeding.
4. This appliance must be
connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring
system. Alternatively, a
grounding conductor should
be connected to the grounding
terminal or lead on the
appliance. Failure to do so may
result in an electrical shock
hazard.
5. Do not use an extension cord
with this appliance. Such use
may result in fire, electrical
shock, or other personal injury.
6. Do not install a fuse in the
neutral or ground circuit. A fuse
in the neutral or ground circuit
may result in an electrical
shock hazard.
7. Do not ground this appliance to
a gas supply pipe or hot water
pipe.
