Burner Input Rating - Altitude
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 need to be
reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea
level (not applicable for Canada).
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least
1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown
on the model/serial rating plate.-
Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)
The cooktop 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 cooktop 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
Install Cooktop
Write down the model and serial numbers before installing the
cooktop. Both numbers are located on the left front underside of
the cooktop console.
Unpack the parts supplied with your cooktop. The parts shipped
with the cooktop depend on your model ordered. See “Tools and
Parts” section for a complete list parts supplied with your
cooktop.
The pressure regulator and flexible stainless steel gas supply line
connector can be assembled to the cooktop now or after the
cooktop is installed in the cutout. See “Make Gas Connection”
section.
1. Decide on the final location for the cooktop.
2. Using two or more people, place the cooktop upside down
on a covered surface.
3. Remove foam strip from literature packing. Remove backing
from foam strip. Apply foam strip adhesive-side down along
the left and right sides of the cooktop trim.
NOTE: The foam strip helps the cooktop sit flat on uneven
counters and avoids damage to the countertop surface.
4. Using 2 or more people, turn cooktop right side up.
Install Optional Backguard
36" (91.4 cm) and 48" (121.9 cm) models may require a
backguard. See “Cabinet Dimensions” in the “Location
Requirements” section for installation requirements. See the
“Tools and Parts” section for information on ordering.
Remove island trim and attach backguard using 6 screws, insert
3 from the front and 3 from the back (9" [22.9 cm] backguard
shown).
Make Gas Connection
To Assemble Pressure Regulator:
1. Using 2 or more people, stand the cooktop on its side or
back.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

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 LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 14" (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.
