Installation Instructions

Gas Line Connection

 WARNING

Verify that the gas supply meets specifications before connection. See page 3.

• 

The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed ½ pounds per square inch (psi) or 3.5 kPa.

• 

Do not install or use the cooktop without the included gas regulator installed.

• 

Ensure that the arrow on the regulator points in the direction of the gas flow, towards the cooktop.

• 

Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas connections and fittings.

• 

Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on flexible gas line connections.

• 

Test the gas lines for leaks as instructed before use. Do not use a flame to check for leaks. 

• 

The gas supply pressure for testing the regulator setting shall be at least 1 inch water column (249Pa) above the 

• 

specified manifold pressure. See page 3.
The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure test-

• 

ing exceeding ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the shut-off valve to the cooktop during 

• 

any gas supply piping system pressure testing equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regu-

• 

lator supplied with the cooktop.

 IMPORTANT

Within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, this appliance must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.

Attach the gas pressure regulator (included with the 

1. 

cooktop) to the 3/4” (19 mm) male NPT gas inlet on 

the cooktop. The inlet is located on the bottom, at the 

right rear portion of the chassis. For tight installations, 

the regulator may be installed upstream from the pipe 

nipple, anywhere between the shut-off valve and the 

cooktop. For best performance, minimize gas pressure 

loss by attaching the regulator as close as possible to 

the cooktop gas inlet.
Complete connection of the gas supply to the cooktop 

2. 

by installing a minimum ½” flexible gas line (not includ-

ed) between the pressure regulator and the shut-off 

valve.
Check for gas leaks:

3. 

Turn all cooktop control valves to the 

◊ 

OFF

 position.

Turn on the gas supply valve and check all lines 

◊ 

and connections for leaks using a soap and water 

solution or a gas leak detector.
Turn the gas supply valve off.
