GAS REQUIREMENTS
Verify the type of gas supplied to the location. The cook-
top is shipped from the factory set up and adjusted for nat-
ural gas. The unit can be readily converted to LP as
described below.
Natural Gas Requirements:
Connection: 1/2” N.P.T.
Pressure: 6” to 14” Water Column
A manual shut off valve must be installed before the regulator.
LP Gas Requirements:
Pressure: 11” to 14” Water Column
A regulator is required at the LP source to provide a maxi-
mum of 14” W.C. to the cooktop regulator.
LP CONVERSION:
If propane is desired you must obtain a conversion kit
from the factory for more information on type of conver-
sion kit needed.

HOOK UP:
Make sure the gas supply is turned off at the wall valve
before connecting the appliance. All gas supply connec-
tions should be made by a qualified technician and in
accordance with local codes or ordinances. In the absence
of a local code, the installation must conform to the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 223.1-1984.
Install the 1/2” coupling to the gas inlet at the left rear cor-
ner of the unit. Next, install the 1/2” close nipple and reg-
ulator (See Fig.11). When installing the regulator, be sure
to have the arrow on the regulator body pointing towards
the cooktop inlet. Only use sealant which is resistant to
the actions of LP. gases.
To operate, push and turn the burner control knob to the
lite position. The gas flowing to the pilot burner will be
ignited by the electric spark igniter. The audible clicking
signal is an indication that the igniter is functioning. The
appliance is equipped with a safety valve which will take
about 30 seconds to heat up before allowing the main
burner to come on, once ignited rotate the dial to the
desired setting.
CAUTION:
The appliance must be isolated from the buildingsgas sup-
ply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5
kPa.).
When checking the cooktop manifold gas pressure, the
inlet pressure to the regulator should be at least 6.0” W.C.
for natural gas or 11.0” for LP.
