The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the same room as the cooktop and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. Shutoff Valve Open position Figure 6 Grounding Instructions IMPORTANT Please read carefully. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 7) to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance. Preferred Method Grounding type wall receptacle Do not, under any circumstances, cut, remove, or bypass the grounding prong. / \ J Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line. Check for leaks. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. After connecting tile cooktop to the gas supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all joints and connections to check for leaks. Do not use a flame to check for leaks from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame may result in a fire or explosion. Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas leakage in the cooktop or supply line, Check alignment of valves after connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the cooktop manifold pipe has not been moved. Disconnect this cooktop and its individual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column). Isolate the cooktop from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column). Electrical Requirements 120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Do not use an extension cord with this cooktop. Power supply cord with 3-prong grounding plug.

Disconnect electrical supply cord from wall receptacle before servicing cooktop. Cooktop Installation 1. Visually inspect the cooktop for damage. 2. If you are installing the optional Stainless Steel backsplash, first fix it at the back of the cooktop using the screws supplied with the kit and follow the instructions attached. Go to step 3, If you are not installing the Optional Stainless Steel backsplash. 3. Set the cooktop into the countertop cutout.
