Burner Input Requirements
Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not
applicable for Canada).
For elevations above 6,560 ft (1999.5 m) a high altitude kit is
needed to avoid any reduced power output. See separate LP gas
conversion instructions sheet.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower
The appliance must be isolated 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 ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Cooktop for Installation
Write down the model and serial numbers before installing the
cooktop. Both numbers are located on the center underside of
the burner box.
Unpack the parts supplied with your cooktop. Do not unpack or
remove the grates and burner bases from the carton until after
the cooktop is installed to reduce the risk of scratching the
cooktop.
The parts shipped with the cooktop depend on the model
ordered. See the “Tools and Parts” section for a complete list of
parts supplied with the cooktop.
Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Locate existing wiring
to avoid drilling into or severing wiring during installation.
The pressure regulator and flexible stainless steel gas supply line
can be assembled to the cooktop before or after the cooktop is
installed. See the “Make Gas Connection” section.
1. Remove the foam strip from the hardware package. Remove
the backing from the foam strip. Apply the foam strip with the
adhesive side to the countertop within
¹⁄₁₆
" (1.6 mm) of the
edge of the cutout, front, back and sides.
NOTE: The foam strip helps keep the underside of the
cooktop frame free from debris and helps the cooktop sit flat
on uneven countertops.
Install Cooktop
Install the pressure regulator to the cooktop before installing the
cooktop. See the “Make Gas Connections” section.
Cooktop over built-in oven
IMPORTANT: Clamping brackets should not be used.
1. Install the cooktop into the countertop cutout by tilting one
end of the cooktop into the cutout, then lowering the other
end into the cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel
to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is needed,
lift the entire cooktop up to avoid scratching the countertop.
Install cooktop into countertop
1. Remove the 2 hold-down screws located in each side of the
cooktop burner box.
2. Attach the 2 hold-down brackets to the burner box.
3. Install the cooktop into the countertop cutout by tilting one
end of the cooktop into the cutout, then lowering the other
end into the cutout.
4. Start the hold-down screws into the hold-down brackets.
5. Center the cooktop in the opening and, using a wood block
between the screw and the countertop, moderately tighten
the screws to secure cooktop.
IMPORTANT: Do not tighten screws directly against the
countertop.
