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 water) at all joints and connections to
check for leaks.
WARNING!
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).
Isolate 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).

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.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
WARNING!
Disconnect electrical supply cord from wall
receptacle before servicing cooktop.

serial numbers and a lot number or letter from the
serial plate of your cooktop.
Your serial plate also tells you the rating of the
burners, the type of fuel and the pressure the
cooktop was adjusted for when it left the factory.
Serial plate is located under the
