Gas Supply Requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances. 
IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes 
and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must 
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas 
Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 - latest 
edition. 
IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the cooktop must be conducted 
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
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 
½" 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 ½" 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.
Rigid pipe connection: 
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe 
fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the cooktop. The 
rigid pipe must be level with the cooktop connection. All 
strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so 
cooktop will be level and in line.
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.
Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must be 
used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for 
proper operation:
Natural Gas:
Minimum pressure: 5" (12.7 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
LP Gas:
Minimum pressure: 10" (25.4 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.5 cm) WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet 
pressure.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure 
gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water 
column. 
Examples of a qualified person include: 
licensed heating personnel, 
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
