GAS CONNECTION
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" (36cm) 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�
WARNING: NEVER reuse an old flexible connector� The utilization of an old flexible connector may cause gas
leakage and personal injury�
NOTE: ALWAYS use a new flexible connector when installing a gas appliance�
NOTE: ALWAYS apply thread compound approved for use with LP or Natural Gas to all thread connections�
Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must be used� For proper operation the inlet pressure to
the regulator should be as follows� (Refer to Figure 9�)
Natural Gas
•
Minimum Inlet Pressure:
5" WCP (Water Column Pressure)
•
Maximum Supply Pressure:
6" WCP (Water Column Pressure)
LP Gas
•
Minimum Inlet Pressure:
11" WCP (Water Column Pressure)
•
Maximum Supply Pressure:
12" WCP (Water Column Pressure)
NOTE: Contact your local gas supplier if
you are not sure about the inlet pressure�
The pressure regulator must be connected in
series with the manifold of the cooktop and
must remain in series with the supply line
regardless the type of gas being used�
Gas Shut-Off Valve
The gas supply line must be equipped with
a manual shut-off valve� This valve should
be located in the same room but external to
the cooktop� It should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing� DO NOT
block access to shut-off valve� The valve
is for turning on or shutting off gas to the
cooktop� (Refer to Figure 10�)
ImPORTANT: It is important to know how and where to shut off the gas supply to the cooktop�
