Gas Connection
To avoid property damage or personal injury, only
use a new exible connector that is AGA/CGA
design certiied.
Do not use an old connector.•
Do not reuse a connector after moving •
appliance.
Connect gas supply to regulator using hard pipe or a
exible connector. Pressure regulator supplied with this
appliance has a 1/2 inch NPT female connection.
A manual shutoff, not supplied with cooktop, must •
be installed in an accessible location outside of
cooktop.
Use joint compound that is resistant to action of •
propane gas on all male pipe threads.
Use supplied pressure regulator only.•
Do not over tighten gas tting when attaching to •
pressure regulator. Over tightening may crack
regulator.
Support pressure regulator with wrench when •
installing gas tting.

Gas Supply Pressure
To avoid property damage, maximum gas supply
pressure must not exceed ½ psi (3.5kPa)(14” WCP).
Appliance and individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of ½ psig (3.5kPa)(14” WCP).
Appliance must be isolated from gas supply piping •
system by closing manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5kPa)
(14” WCP).
Gas supply pressure for checking regulator setting •
must be at least 1” WCP above manifold pressure
shown on rating label.
Must use pressure regulator supplied with cooktop.•
Pressure Regulator Connection
The pressure regulator connects directly to the 90
degree tting that exits the upper right hand corner of
cooktop.
Support regulator when installing gas supply.•
Do not overtighten regulator when attaching to gas •
manifold pipe. Overtightening may crack regulator.
Do not overtighten tting or hard pipe when •
attaching to gas regulator. Overtightening may crack
regulator.

Gas Supply Location
Locate gas supply so manual shutoff valve is accessible
after installation. Gas supply can be installed in adjacent
cabinet or behind access panel. Avoid interference with
electrical connection.
