Dacor HCT36 Installation Instruction - Heirtage Cooktop - Page 9

Installation Instructions Verifying Package Contents Connecting the Gas Line • Hold-down brackets (2) • Grates (3) • Burner sets (5) • Gas-pressure regulator (1) • Stainless-steel cleaner (1; stainless-steel models only) If parts are missing, contact Dacor Customer Service. (See If You Need Help... on the inside cover.) Installing the Cooktop WARNING • Before proceeding, verify that the power supply meets the specifications on Page 3. • To avoid damaging the gas-pressure regulator, install it only after the cooktop is mounted in its final position. IMPORTANT • Do not overtighten the hold-down bracket bolts, as doing so may lead the dual gas burners to malfunction. • Do not seal the cooktop to the countertop with hardening compound or caulk. The cooktop must be removable for servicing. The customer is financially responsible for removal of sealant to service the unit. 1. (If a downdraft will be used) Install the downdraft according to the downdraft installation instructions. 2. Lower the cooktop through the cutout and center it. 3. With the two provided hold-down brackets, secure the cooktop to the countertop as shown. WARNING • First, ensure the gas supply meets specifications (Pg. 3). • Install the included gas regulator before you install/use the cooktop. • Ensure the regulator arrow points toward the cooktop. • Do not apply excessive pressure in tightening the gas connections/fittings. • Do not use Teflon tape or plumber's putty on flexible gas-line connections. • Before use, test the gas lines for leaks as instructed. (Do not use a flame to check for leaks.) • The gas-supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed 1/2 pound per sq. inch (3.5 kPa). • Disconnect he cooktop and shut-off valve from the gas supply for pressure testing over 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). • The shut-off valve to the cooktop must be closed to iso- late the cooktop from the gas supply during gas-supply piping-system pressure testing ≤1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). • For liquid propane installations, the LP tank must have its own high-pressure regulator besides the Dacorsupplied regulator. See Beneath the Cooktop (left) while performing this procedure. 1. Attach the gas-pressure regulator (included) to the gas inlet on the chassis bottom. NOTE • In tight spaces, you can install the regulator anywhere between the cooktop and gas-supply/shut-off valve. • For best results, attach the regulator as close as possible to the cooktop (to minimize gas-pressure loss)..

Connect the regulator to the gas-supply/shut-off valve with a minimum 1/2" flexible gas line (not included). 3. Check for gas leaks: a. Turn all cooktop control valves OFF. b. With a soap-and-water solution or gas-leak detector, check all lines and connections for gas leaks. (Ensure the gas-supply/shut-off valve is ON.) c. Turn the gas supply/shut-off valve OFF. 7
