Installation Instructions
Gas Line Connection
WARNING
Verify that the gas supply meets specifications before
•
connection. See page 3.
The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator
•
must never exceed ½ pounds per square inch (psi) or
3.5 kPa.
Do not install or use the cooktop without the included
•
gas regulator installed.
Ensure that the arrow on the regulator points in the
•
direction of the gas flow, towards the cooktop.
Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas
•
connections and fittings.
Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on flexible
•
gas line connections.
Test the gas lines for leaks as instructed before use.
•
Do not use a flame to check for leaks.
The gas supply pressure for testing the regulator set-
•
ting shall be at least 1 inch water column (249Pa)
above the specified manifold pressure. See page 3.
The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected
•
from the gas supply piping system during any pres-
sure testing exceeding ½ p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply
•
piping system by closing the shut-off valve to the
cooktop during any gas supply piping system pres-
sure testing equal to or less than ½ p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have
•
its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the
pressure regulator supplied with the cooktop.
Knob Installation
Attach the SimmerSear burner knobs
1.
A
as shown
below. The SimmerSear knobs have a wider space
between the large flame icon and the simmer icon than
the standard burner knobs. Align the “D-shaped” open-
ing on the back of each knob with the end of the valve
shaft. Carefully push each knob on until it stops.
Attach the remaining knobs which operate the standard

burners

IMPORTANT
Within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, this
appliance must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas
fitter.
Attach the gas pressure regulator (included with the
1.
cooktop) to the 3/4” (19 mm) male NPT gas inlet on
the cooktop. The inlet is located on the bottom, at the
right rear portion of the chassis. For tight installations,
the regulator may be installed upstream from the pipe
nipple, anywhere between the shut-off valve and the
cooktop. For best performance, minimize gas pressure
loss by attaching the regulator as close as possible to
the cooktop gas inlet.
Complete connection of the gas supply to the cooktop
2.
by installing a minimum ½” flexible gas line (not includ-
ed) between the pressure regulator and the shut-off
valve.
Check for gas leaks:
3.
Turn all cooktop control valves to the
◊
OFF
position.
Turn on the gas supply valve and check all lines
◊
and connections for leaks using a soap and water
solution or a gas leak detector.
Turn the gas supply valve off.
