GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Type of Gas
Natural Gas:
This cooktop is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or,
after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.
● This cooktop is factory set for use with Natural gas. If converting to LP gas, see
the “LP Gas Conversion” instructions provided in the package containing
literature. The model/serial rating plate located on the underside of the cooktop
base has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of gas
listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.
LP Gas Conversion:
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the cooktop from the gas specified on the
model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving
gas supplier. See the Gas Conversion instructions provided in the package
containing literature.
Gas Supply Line
● Provide a gas supply line of ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm) rigid pipe to the cooktop location. A
smaller size pipe on longer runs may result in insufficient gas supply. Pipe-joint
compounds that resist the action of LP gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON
®†
tape. With LP gas, piping or tubing size should be ¹⁄₂" minimum. Usually, LP gas
suppliers determine the size and materials used in the system.
Flexible metal appliance connector:
● If local codes permit, use a ¹⁄₂" or ³⁄₄" I.D. flexible stainless steel tubing gas
connector, designed by CSA to connect the cooktop to the rigid gas supply line.
● A ¹⁄₂" male pipe thread is needed for connection to the female pipe threads of the
inlet to the cooktop pressure regulator.
● Do not kink or damage the flexible metal tubing when moving the cooktop.

● A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this cooktop be provided.
● Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120-volt
power and is correctly grounded.

● Must include a shutoff valve:
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This valve should
be located in the same room but external to the cooktop opening, such as an
adjacent cabinet. It must be accessible without removing the cooktop, and it
should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block
access to shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the
cooktop.
