• If the cooktop is converted for liquid pretroleum (LP) gas, the LP gas supply is required to provide
a minimum of10” to a maximum of 14” water column to the cooktop regulator.
• 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.
• The gas supply line must be equipped
with an approved manual shut-off valve. In
an easily accessible location in the same
room as the cooktop. Do not block access
to the shutoff valve. Be sure you know how
and where to shut off the gas supply to the
cooktop. Install the electrical outlet 12”
below the countertop (see Figure 13).
1) The gas inlet is located on the bottom of the cooktop at the rear and 8 ½” from the right hand
edge of the cooktop. Make gas connection through rear wall, or on cabinet floor at rear. Install
the house gas supply at least 1” from the back wall.
2) When installing, fit a safety tap at the end of the pipeline. The appliance leaves the factory tested
and set for natural gas. Make sure that the type of gas to be supplied to the appliance is the
same as that shown on the label affixed to the underside of the cooktop.
3) Make the connection to the gas system using a rigid ½”or ¾”metal pipe and regulation unions, or
with a stainless steel hose complying with the local standard. If metal hoses are used, take care
that they do not come into contact with mobile parts and are not crushed. This must also be
checked if the cooktop is to be combined with an oven.
4) The gas intake connection of the appliance has a “male thread.” When making the connection,
take care not to apply stresses of any kind to the appliance. Over-tightening may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion (see Figure 14).
