GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(For Models with 4 Sealed Burners, Tempered Glass Cooktops or Porcelain Enamel Cooktops)
Electrical Requirements
120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Do not use an extension cord with this cooktop.
Grounding Instructions
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 10) 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.
Disconnect electrical supply cord from wall
receptacle before servicing cooktop.
The supply line should be equipped with an approved
shutoff valve). This valve should be located in the same
room as the cooktop and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access
to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.
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 at all joints and
connections to check for leaks.
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 valves
after connecting the
cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe
has not been moved.
Disconnect this cooktop and its individual 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).
