Electrical Connection WARNINGS: 1. Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before proceeding. 2. Verify that the power supply matches the ratings found on the appliance data plate before proceeding. 3. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when electrical power is applied. 4. Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be utilized. 5. If aluminum house supply wiring is utilized, splice the appliance copper wires to the aluminum house wiring using special connectors designed and agency-certified for joining copper and aluminum. 6. Follow the connector manufacturer's recommended procedure carefully. Improper connection can result in a fire hazard! Plug the three-prong plug from the appliance into the properly grounded and polarized wall receptacle. Verifying Proper Operation WARNINGS: 1. If the cooktop fails to operate properly, ensure that the electrical power supply and gas supply are turned on and that all installation steps have been carefully followed. Call a qualified service technician if the cooktop still does not operate properly. 2. The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing exceeding 1/2 pound per square inch (3.5 kPA). 3. The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping by closing the shut-off valve during any pressure testing at or below 1/2 pound per square inch (3.5 kPA). Before beginning the test procedure, ensure that the gas supply is turned off at the shut-off valve, all cooktop control valves are in the "OFF" position, and all burner heads, burner caps, and grates are properly positioned on the cooktop. Rotate one knob at a time counterclockwise to the "HIGH" position. Verify that associated burner igniter sparks, then return the knob to the "OFF" position. Repeat for all knobs.

Test each burner separately by pressing and turning one control knob at a time counterclockwise to the "HIGH" position. Only the selected burner will spark. (It will take approximately four seconds for ignition to occur, at which time all igniters will stop sparking. If ignition does not occur within four seconds, turn off the knob, wait for at least two minutes to allow any gas to dissipate, then repeat this ignition test.) The control knob can then be rotated counterclockwise from "HIGH" to "LOW" to adjust the flame height progressively. Repeat the ignition test for all burners. When installed properly, the flame will be steady and quiet. It will also have a sharp, blue inner cone that will vary in length proportional to the burner size. Flame adjustment will not be necessary. Read and understand the accompanying Use & Care Manual prior to cooking with this appliance. The Use & Care Manual contains additional important safety, service and warranty information. 5

Verifying Proper Operation
WARNINGS:
1.
If the cooktop fails to operate
properly, ensure that the
electrical power supply and
gas supply are turned on and
that all installation steps have
been carefully followed. Call
a qualified service technician
if the cooktop still does not
operate properly.
2.
The cooktop and shut-off
valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping
during any pressure testing
exceeding 1/2 pound per
square inch (3.5 kPA).
3.
The cooktop must be isolated
from the gas supply piping
by closing the shut-off valve
during any pressure testing at
or below 1/2 pound per square
inch (3.5 kPA).
Turn on the main gas supply to the cooktop
by opening the gas shut-off valve. Test each
burner separately by pressing and turning one
control knob at a time counterclockwise to the
“HIGH” position. Only the selected burner will
spark. (It will take approximately four seconds
for ignition to occur, at which time all igniters will
stop sparking. If ignition does not occur within
four seconds, turn off the knob, wait for at least
two minutes to allow any gas to dissipate, then
repeat this ignition test.) The control knob can
then be rotated counterclockwise from “HIGH” to
“LOW” to adjust the flame height progressively.
Repeat the ignition test for all burners.
When installed properly, the flame will be steady
and quiet. It will also have a sharp, blue inner
cone that will vary in length proportional to
the burner size. Flame adjustment will not be
necessary.
Read and understand the accompanying
Use & Care Manual prior to cooking with this
appliance. The Use & Care Manual contains
additional important safety, service and warranty
information.
Before beginning the test procedure, ensure
that the gas supply is turned off at the shut-off
valve, all cooktop control valves are in the “OFF”
position, and all burner heads, burner caps, and
grates are properly positioned on the cooktop.
Rotate one knob at a time counterclockwise
to the “HIGH” position. Verify that associated
burner igniter sparks, then return the knob to the
“OFF” position. Repeat for all knobs.
