SIDE BURNER ACCESSORY CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
WARNING
Never connect a gas line directly to the accessory. A pressure regulator must be installed on all gas equipment. All local
codes require that the pressure regulator supplied with your accessory is used. Removing or
f
ailing to install the pressure
regulator can result in
re and serious personal injury and will void the warranty
.
The accessory is factory set to use either propane (LP) or natural
gas (NAT). It is critical that the gas you use matches that which
the accessory was set up for. You can verify that by checking the
rating plate.
The rating plate is located on the heat shield behind the front
panel or on the back side of the accessory.
Ensure that the gas supplied meets with the minimum
pressure requirements.
Do not operate the accessory on any gas other than that for
which the accessory has been set.

Water Column Requirements
Both the regulator and the manifold ori ces have been tuned
for the type of gas speci ed on the rating plate.
Converting to a di erent type of gas requires a conversion kit
which is included with your side burner accessory and must be
installed by a quali ed technician.
All installation and all installation parts must conform to local
codes with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 and
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the U.S. and
CGA-B149.1/.2 in Canada.
Canadian installations must conform to CGA-B149.1/.2 natural
gas/propane installation code. (Canada)
NATURAL GAS
Viking Range, LLC recommends that only quali ed professionals
perform the required plumbing on this product.
The gas supply line must be sized to accommodate the total
BTU requirements of all the gas- red equipment that will be
connected to that line.
In no case should pipe less than 3/4” inside diameter or 1”
outside diameter be used.
• Calculate the total BTU output of all equipment and refer to
“INDEX: Gas Supply Line Runs” for allowable run distances.
Failure to meet these minimum requirements may reduce
performance of the accessory and any other appliances
running on that supply line.
• Always keep supply line runs as short as possible. (See INDEX:
“Gas Supply line runs”)
• A gas shut-o valve must be installed in an easily accessible
location by a quali ed plumber.
• Keep any threading compound o of the rst two pipe threads
to avoid having any small pieces of compound break loose
and clog a burner valve or ori ce. Do not put sealant on any
male end of are ttings.
For built-in installations, it is recommended that any exible
pipe used be kept as short as possible. (See INDEX: “Gas
Connections” for typical permanent hook up.)
