Gas supply requirements Provide adequate gas supply This cooktop is designed to operate at a pressure of 5 in (13 cm) of water column on natural gas or 10 in (25 cm) of water column on LP gas (propane or butane). Make sure you are supplying your cooktop with the type of gas for which it is designed. Do not attempt to convert the appliance from the gas specified in this manual to a different gas without consulting the gas supplier. This cooktop is convertible for use on natural or propane gas. If you decide to use this cooktop on LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified LP installer before attempting to operate the cooktop. For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be between 5 in and 10.5 in (13 cm and 27 cm) of water column. For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 10 in and 13 in (25 cm and 33 cm) of water column. When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1 in (2.5 cm) greater than the operating (manifold) pressure as given. The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the cooktop manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used. NOTE • The cooktop comes from the factory with a regulator in the shipping carton. Use only the regulator provided. The regulator must be installed in the gas line that runs from the cooktop gas inlet to the gas shut off valve. • An external manual shut-off valve must be installed between the gas inlet and the cooktop for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. • Be sure the connectors are installed by a qualified installer. • Never reuse old connectors when installing the cooktop. The use of old connectors can cause gas leaks and personal injury. Always use new flexible connectors when installing a gas appliance.
