• Forall connections, use a pipe sealant approved by local
codes and resistant to the activity of LPgas.
° Installthe pressure regulator in the gas line as close to the
cooktop inlet as possible to allow clearance for ventilation
ducting.
• Make sure the arrow on the body of the regulator is
pointing straight up and toward the cooktop. Any other
position will affect the output pressure of the regulator. This
arrow indicates correct flow of gas.
• Install a manual gas line shut-offvalve in an easily
accessible location.
NOTE:Instead of using solid piping to connect to pressure
regulator, an approved flexible metal appliance connector
may be used between the shut-of valve and the pressure
regulator, if local codes permit.
Appropriate flare nuts and adapters are required at each
end of the flexible connector.
TESTFORLEAKS
A WARNING: DO NOT U SE AFLAME TO
CHECKFORGASLEAKS!Do not use the cooktop until all
connections have been leak tested.
Perform leak test per the following instructions:
1. Purchasea liquid leak detector or prepare a soap solution
of one part water, one part liquid detergent.
2.When all connections have been made, make sure all
cooktop controls are turned to OFF and turn the gas supply
valve to ON.
3. Apply the liquid leak detector or the soap solution around
all connections from the shut-off valve to the cooktop.
4. A leak is identified by a flow of bubbles from the area of
the leak.
5. Ifa leak is detected, turn the gas supply off. Tighten the
fitting. Turn the gas on and test again.
If the leak persists,turn the gas supply off and contact
your dealer for assistance. Do not attempt to operate the
cooktop if a leak is present.
IMPORTANT:Disconnectthe cooktop and the individual
shut-of valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressuresgreater
than 1/2 psig. Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping
system by closing the individual manual shut-off valve to the
cooktop during any pressuretesting of the gas supply piping
system at test pressuresequal to or less than 1/2 psig.
