The gas multi-function cooktop is equipped for
use with natural or LP gas. It is design certified
by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
for natural or LP gases. The product rating
plate, located on the underside of the cooktop,
has information on the type of gas that should
be used. If this information does not agree
with the type of gas available, contact your
Wolf dealer. To obtain local dealer information,
visit the Locator section of our website,

The gas multi-function cooktop is supplied
1
with a / " NPT male gas connection at the
2
right rear corner of the cooktop.
Provide a gas supply line of
the cooktop location. A smaller size pipe on
long runs may result in insufficient gas supply.
Pipe joint compounds, suitable for use with LP
gas should be used. For LP gas, piping or
1
tubing size can be / " minimum.

If local codes permit, a new CSA design-
certified, 4–5' (1.2–1.5 m) long,
flexible metal appliance connector is recom-
mended for connecting this cooktop to the gas
supply line. Do not kink or damage the flexible
connector when moving the cooktop. The gas

You will need to determine the fittings
required, depending on the size of your gas
supply line, flexible metal connector and shut-
off valve.
If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a
combination of pipe fittings must be used to
obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop. All
strains must be removed from the supply and
gas lines so the cooktop will be level and in
line.
