IMPORTANT: 1. If the electrical supply circuit does not have a groundingtype receptacle, it is the responsibility of the customer to have the existing receptacle changed by an electrician to a properly grounded receptacle. 2. The power supply must be properly polarized. Reverse polarity will result in continuous sparking of the electrodes, even after flame ignition. If the power supply is not properly polarized, it is the responsibility of the customer to have the polarity corrected. 3. If there is any doubt as to whether the wall receptacle is properly grounded or polarized, have it checked by a qualified electrician prior to installing the cooktop. 4. Do not plug the cooktop into Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) receptacles. The cooktop spark ignition module can cause a GFCI to trip. Installing the Cooktop Place and center the cooktop within the cutout. Secure the cooktop to the countertop utilizing the four (4) hold-down brackets provided. Do not over-tighten the screws. IMPORTANT: Do not use a hardening compound or caulking to permanently seal the cooktop into place, as the unit must be readily removable for service. If such a hardening compound is used, removal of the unit will be at the customer's expense.

The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must not exceed 1/2 pound per square inch. 2. Verify that the proper gas supply has been provided. 3. Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening connections and fittings. 4. Do not use plumber's putty or Teflon tape on gas compression connections. It can defeat the proper sealing of these fittings. Use plumber's putty or Teflon tape only on pipe thread fittings. 5. Turn all cooktop control valves to the "OFF" position, then turn on the gas supply. Check all supply lines and connections for leaks using a soap and water solution. Do not use a flame to check for leaks. After verifying that there are no gas leaks, turn off the gas supply to the cooktop by turning the gas shut-off valve to the off position. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. 6. For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have its own high-pressure regulator. This is in addition to the pressure regulator supplied with the cooktop. Attach the gas pressure regulator (included with the cooktop) to cooktop pipe nipple inlet. For tight installations, the regulator may be installed upstream from the pipe nipple, anywhere between the shut-off valve and the cooktop. IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the gas pressure regulator, install the regulator only after the cooktop is mounted in its permanent position. Ensure that the arrow on the regulator points in the direction of the gas flow towards the cooktop. Installing the Burner Components WARNING: Never attempt to operate the cooktop with any of the burner heads, burner caps, or grates removed. Grate Dual Burner Cap Dual Burner Head Single Burner Head Single Burner Base Dual Burner Cross Ring PGM Burner Components Burner Components Remove the brass burner heads, burner caps, and porcelain grates from their shipping packages. Place each burner head onto its corresponding burner base, being certain that the alignment tabs slide into the matching notches in the base. Set each burner cap on top of its corresponding burner head. Place each grate onto the cooktop, being certain that the rubber feet are positioned in the locating dimples. Install a gas shut-off valve (not included with the cooktop) in the main gas supply line in an accessible location near the cooktop. Complete connection of the gas supply to the cooktop by installing 1/2 inch flexible gas line (not included with the cooktop) between the pressure regulator and the shut-off valve. 4

IMPORTANT:
1.
If the electrical supply circuit
does not have a grounding-
type receptacle, it is the
responsibility of the customer
to have the existing receptacle
changed by an electrician to a
properly grounded receptacle.
2.
The power supply must
be properly polarized.
Reverse polarity will result in
continuous sparking of the
electrodes, even after flame
ignition. If the power supply is
not properly polarized, it is the
responsibility of the customer
to have the polarity corrected.
3.
If there is any doubt as to
whether the wall receptacle
is properly grounded
or
polarized, have it checked by
a qualified electrician prior to
installing the cooktop.
4.
Do not plug the cooktop
into Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) receptacles.
The cooktop spark ignition
module can cause a GFCI to
trip.
Installing the Cooktop
Place and center the cooktop within the cutout.
Secure the cooktop to the countertop utilizing
the four (4) hold-down brackets provided. Do not
over-tighten the screws.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use a hardening
compound or caulking to

WARNING:
Never attempt to operate the
cooktop with any of the burner
heads, burner caps, or grates
removed.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent damage to the gas
pressure regulator, install the
regulator only after the cooktop
is mounted in its permanent
position. Ensure that the arrow
on the regulator points in the
direction of the gas flow towards
the cooktop.
Burner Components
