Whirlpool GLS3665R Dimensions And Installation Information

PRODUCT MODEL NUMBERS
GLS3665R
This cooktop is factory-set for use with Natural gas. To convert to LP
gas, see the Gas Conversion instructions provided in the package
containing the literature. The model/serial rating plate located on the
underside of the burner box has information on the types of gas that
can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas
available, check with the local gas supplier.
LP Gas conversion:
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
Gas Supply Line:
• Provide a gas supply line of
location. A smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in
insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint compounds that resist the action
of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON
piping or tubing size can be
determine the size and materials used in the system.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
• If local codes permit, use a
5
connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas
supply line.
• A 1 ⁄ " (1.3 cm) male pipe thread is needed for connection to the
2
female pipe threads of the inlet to the appliance pressure regulator.
• Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the
cooktop.
Rigid pipe connection:
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings to
obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop. The rigid pipe must be
level with the cooktop connection. All strains must be removed from
the supply and fuel lines so cooktop will be level and in line.
Must include a shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This
valve should be located in the same room but external to the cooktop
opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff
valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the cooktop.
