Cut out the opening as shown in the diagram. Measure
carefully when cutting the countertop, making sure the sides of
the opening are parallel and the front and rear cuts are exactly
perpendicular to the sides.
The front of the opening must clear the front support rail on
the cabinet, and the rear of the opening must clear the rear
support of the cabinet.
Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to prevent
damage from chipping.
forced fit can contribute to cracking of the countertop laminate.
Countertop must be supported within 3" (7.6 cm) of cutout.
For island installation, maintain 1 7/8" minimim from cutout to
front edge, 1 7/8" minimum from cutout to back edge, and
8 13/16" minimum from cutout to side edges of counter top.

The position of the electrical supply receptacle and
the gas supply pipe entering the cabinet should be
positioned as shown in the shaded areas marked below.
The cooktop is equipped with a 4 ft (1.2 m) power cord,
which should reach any desired location on the cabinet
walls. The cooktop must be disconnected from the
power supply before any servicing is carried out.

This cooktop is designed to operate on natural gas
only at 5" (12.7 cm) of water column pressure or on
LP gas at 10" (25.4 cm) of water column pressure. It
is shipped from the factory set for natural gas. If you
decide to use this cooktop with LP gas, conversion
adjustments must be made by a service technician
or other qualified person.
A pressure regulator is to be connected in series
with the manifold of the cooktop and must remain
in series with the supply line, regardless of whether
natural or LP gas is being used.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure
to the regulator must be no more than 10" (25.4
cm) water column pressure for natural gas, or 14"
(35.5 cm) water column pressure for LP gas. For
checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must
be at least 1" (2.5 cm) greater than the regulator
output setting. If the regulator is set for 5" (12.7 cm)
of water column pressure, the inlet pressure must
be at least 6" (15.2 cm).
For ease of installation, and if local codes permit,
the gas supply line into the cooktop should be
1/2" (13 mm) or 3/4" (19 mm) I.D. flexible metal
appliance connector three (0.9 m) to five feet (1.5 m)
in length.

The maximum gas supply pressure for the regulator
supplied on this appliance is 14" (35.5 cm) W.C. The
test pressure for checking this regulator must be
at least 6" (15.2 cm) W.C. for natural gas, and at
least 11" (27.9 cm) W.C. for LP. It is shipped from the
factory set for natural gas at 5" (12.7 cm) W.C.
This appliance and its individual shut-off valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-
off valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal to or
less than PSIG.
