GAS COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Models with Optional Electric Built-In Oven Combination) Check for leaks. Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. After connecting the 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 ½ 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 ½ psig (3.5 kPa or 14" (35.6 cm) water column). 6. Connect Electricity to Gas Cooktop 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. Preferred Method Grounding type wall receptacle Do not, under any circumstances, cut, remove, or bypass the grounding prong. Power supply cord with 3-prong grounding plug Figure 9 Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded 3prong wall receptacle. Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Disconnect electrical supply cord from wall receptacle before servicing cooktop. 7. Check Operation Refer to the Use and Care Guide packaged with the cooktop for operating instructions and for care and cleaning of your cooktop. Do not touch the burners.
