Installation Instructions

Connecting the Gas Line

 WARNING

•  Before connection, ensure the gas supply meets speci-

fications (Pg. 4).

•  Install the included gas regulator before you install/use 

the cooktop.

•  Ensure the arrow on the regulator points in the direction 

of the gas flow (toward the cooktop).

•  Do not overtighten the gas connections/fittings.
•  Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on flexible 

gas-line connections.

•  Before use, test the gas lines for leaks as instructed. 

Do not use a flame to check for leaks. 

•  The gas-supply pressure to the regulator must not 

exceed 1/2 psi (pounds per square inch) or 3.5 kPa.

•  The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected 

from the gas-supply piping system during any pressure 

test over 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

•  You must close the shut-off valve to the cooktop during 

any gas-supply piping-system pressure testing equal to 

or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

•  For LP (liquid propane) gas installations, the tank must 

have its own high-pressure regulator besides the pres-

sure regulator supplied with the cooktop.

1.  Attach the gas-pressure regulator (included) to the 

cooktop gas inlet.
(Tight spaces) Install the regulator anywhere between 

the cooktop and gas-supply/shut-off valve.
To minimize gas-pressure loss, attach the regulator as 

close to the cooktop as possible.
Use a minimum 1/2” flexible gas line (not included) to 

connect the regulator to the gas-supply/shut-off valve.

2.  Check for gas leaks:

a.  Turn OFF all cooktop control valves.
b.  With a soap-water solution or gas-leak detector, 

check all lines/connections for leaks. (Ensure the 

gas-supply/shut-off valve is ON.)

c.  Turn the gas supply/shut-off valve OFF.

Installing the Cooktop

 WARNING

•  Before proceeding, verify that the power supply meets 

the specifications on Page 4.

•  To avoid damaging the gas-pressure regulator, install it 

after

 mounting the cooktop in its permanent position.

 IMPORTANT

•  Do not overtighten the hold-down bolts; overtightening 

may keep the dual gas burners from operating properly.

•  Do not seal the cooktop to the counter; the cooktop 

must be easily removable for service. The customer is 

financially responsible for the added task of removing 

sealing compounds in the course of servicing the unit.

If a downdraft vent will be used, first install the vent 

according to its installation instructions.

1.  Lower the cooktop into the cutout and center it. 
2.  Secure the cooktop to the countertop using the hold-

down brackets as shown.
