6Gas Pressure RegulatorThe gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must beused. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows forproper operation:Natural Gas:Minimum pressure: 5" (12.7 cm) WCPMaximum pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCPLP Gas:Minimum pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCPMaximum pressure: 14" (35.5 cm) WCPContact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inletpressure.Burner Input RequirementsInput ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are forelevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings should bereduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sealevel (not applicable for Canada).Gas Supply Pressure TestingGas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown onthe model/serial rating plate.Line pressure testing above ½ psi gauge (14" WCP)The cooktop and its individual shutoff valve must bedisconnected from the gas supply piping system during anypressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of½ psi (3.5 kPa).Line pressure testing at ½ psi gauge (14" WCP) or lowerThe cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping systemby closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressuretesting of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal toor less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSInstall CooktopDecide on the final location for the cooktop. Avoid drilling into orsevering existing wiring during installation.Gas on Glass Cooktop models only:1. Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on acovered surface.2. Remove foam strip from the package containing literature.Remove backing from foam strip. Apply foam strip adhesive-side down around bottom of cooktop, flush with edge.NOTE: The foam strip helps avoid damage to the undersideof the cooktop glass from debris and helps the cooktop sitflat on uneven counters.3. Place cooktop right side up into the cutout.NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop isparallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning isneeded, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratchingthe countertop.Make Gas ConnectionTypical flexible connection1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LPgas to the smaller thread ends of the flexible connectoradapters (see C and G in following illustration).2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and theother adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.A. Cooktop baseB. Foam stripC. CooktopWARNINGExcessive Weight HazardUse two or more people to move and install cooktop.Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.ABCWARNINGExplosion HazardUse 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 suregas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) watercolumn.Examples of a qualified person include:licensed heating personnel,authorized gas company personnel, andauthorized service personnel.Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
