Gas supply: The installation of this appliance
must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition, or, in
Canada, CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code,
Latest Edition.
All supply piping, except as noted, should use
common National Pipe Thread (N.P.T.). For all
pipe connections use an approved pipe joint
compound resistant to the action of LP gas.
This appliance is designed for use with the
appliance gas pressure regulator supplied with
this appliance. It must be installed in the gas
line ahead of the gas manifold entrance. It is
preset for use with natural gas and must be
converted, as described in the Installation
Instructions for use with LP gas.
This appliance is designed to operate at a
pressure of 5" of water column on natural gas
or, if converted for use with LP gas (propane
or butane), 10" water column. Make sure this
appliance is supplied with and adjusted for the
type of gas for which it is designed.
This appliance was adjusted at the factory for
use with natural gas. If, at any time, this
appliance is to be used with a different type of
gas, all of the conversion adjustments
described in the Installation Instructions must
be made by a qualified service technician
before attempting to operate the cooktop on
that gas. Natural gas should be supplied to the
appliance pressure regulator at a line pressure
between 6" and 14" of water column or, if
converted for LP gas, between 11" and 14".
Make the gas connection to the inlet of the
appliance pressure regulator with 1/2" NPT
male pipe threads.
Install a manual shut-off valve in an accessible
location in the gas line ahead of the appliance
pressure regulator and external to this
appliance for the purpose of turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.
Make additional pipe connections as necessary
ahead of the shut-off valve to the gas supply
source. Assure all pipe joint connections are
gas tight.
