Conversion Instructions
With the installation of this conversion kit, the cooktop
should operate on LP gas at 10of water column
pressure.
The pressure regulator must be connected in series
with the manifold of the cooktop and must remain in
series with the supply line. For proper operation, the
maximum inlet pressure to the regulator must be no
more than 14water column pressure for LP gas.
When checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must
be at least 1greater than the regulator output
setting. If the regulator is set for 10of water column
pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 11.
IMPORTANT
Disconnect the cooktop and
the individual shut-off valve from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures greater than 1/2 psig. Isolate the cooktop from
the gas supply piping system by closing the individual
manual shut-off valve to the cooktop during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or greater than 1/2 psig.
GAS SUPPLY
BEFORE YOU BEGIN, TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY AT THE
SHUT-OFF VALVE. DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
FROM THE COOKTOP.
