6) After connecting the cooktop to the gas supply, make sure all burners knobs are in the OFF
position and check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn
on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints and connections
to check for leaks.
• Warning - Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with
a flame may result in a fire or explosion.
• Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
• Check alignment of control knob valves after connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be
sure the cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A misalignment could cause the valve stems to rub
on the control panel, resulting in a gas leak at the valve.
• Disconnect this cooktop and its individual manual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or
14" water column).
• Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or
less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).
Electrical Connection
Before making the connection, make sure that:
1) The safety circuit-breaker and the electrical system are able to with stand the load of the
appliance.
2) The power supply system has a ground connection in good working order in accordance with the
regulations in force.
3) The electrical socket is easily accessible with the appliance installed. In all cases, the power
supply lead must be positioned so that it does not reach a temperature 50
o
C above the room
temperature at any point.
4) If installed above a built-in oven, the cooktop cable must not touch the oven below (see Figure 15).
