The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong
(grounding) plug which must be used with a properly grounded
3-hole outlet with a standard 120 V, 60 cycle AC household
current. If you do not have a 3-hole grounded outlet, have a
qualified electrician change your old one. A grounding adaptor will
be needed to convert the old one until the outlet can be replaced.
This method is only temporary, and a qualified electrician should
test it to be sure it meets requirements.
Electrical Requirements
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove grounding
prong from the cooktop cord.

Gas Supply Requirements
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to propane, have a qualified person make
sure gas pressure does not exceed 14
ʺ
(36 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating
personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
A QUALIFIED SERVICE MAN OR GAS APPLIANCE
INSTALLER MUST MAKE THE GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT:
This installation must conform with all local codes
and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with the National Fuel Gas Codes ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
or, in Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CSA B149.1 - latest edition.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer
according to the instructions given. You must install the supplied
connection parts seen here in this configuration to the main gas
manifold on the appliance. Issues arising from a failure to do so
will not be covered by warranty.
Do not install the pressure regulator backwards as the gas will not
flow correctly. Check that the arrow on the back points in the
direction of gas flow.
Parts required for connection from gas supply to regulator are the
responsibility of the installer/owner.
