Dacor SGM304 Installation Instructions - Page 10

Installation Instructions Verify Package Contents Connecting the Gas Line • Hold down brackets (2) • Gas pressure regulator • Grates (2 for SGM304, 3 for SGM365 and SGM466) • Burner sets (4 for SGM304, 5 for SGM365, 6 for SGM466) • Stainless steel cleaner (stainless steel models only) If any parts are missing, see the Parts List section on page 11 for ordering information. Installing the Cooktop WARNING • Verify that the power supply meets the specifications on page 4 before proceeding. • To prevent damage to the gas pressure regulator, install it only after the cooktop is mounted in its permanent position. important • Do not over-tighten the hold down bolts. Over tightening the hold down bolts may result in improper operation of the dual gas burners. • Do not use a hardening compound or caulk to permanently seal the cooktop into place. The cooktop must be readily removable if service is required. Removal of sealant to service the unit will be performed at the customer's expense. 1. If the cooktop will be used with a raised vent, install the vent according to it's installation instructions first. 2. Lower the cooktop into the cutout and center it. 3. Secure the cooktop to the countertop using the two (2) provided hold-down brackets as shown. Hold down bracket mounting holes (both sides) Gas inlet Electric cord warning • Verify that the gas supply meets specifications before connection. See page 4. • Do not install or use the cooktop without the included gas regulator installed. • Ensure that the arrow on the regulator points in the direction of the gas flow, towards the cooktop. • Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas connections and fittings. • Do not use Teflon tape or plumber's putty on flexible gas line connections. • Test the gas lines for leaks as instructed before use. Do not use a flame to check for leaks. • The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must never exceed 1/2 pounds per square inch (psi) or 3.5 kPa. • The cooktop and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing exceeding 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). • The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the shut-off valve to the cooktop during any gas supply piping system pressure testing equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). • For LP gas installations, the LP gas tank must have its own high-pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator supplied with the cooktop. 1. Attach the gas pressure regulator (included with the cooktop) to the 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. For best performance, minimize gas pressure loss by attaching the regulator as close as possible to the cooktop gas inlet. 2. Complete connection of the gas supply to the cooktop by installing a minimum 1/2" flexible gas line (not included) between the pressure regulator and the shutoff valve. 3. Check for gas leaks: ◊ Turn all cooktop control valves to the OFF position. ◊ Turn on the gas supply valve and check all lines and connections for leaks using a soap and water solution or a gas leak detector. ◊ Turn the gas supply off.
