3. Install the pressure regulator with the arrow pointing up 

toward the bottom of the cooktop burner base and in a 
position where you can reach the regulator cap.

IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do 
not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making 
the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause 
a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn on the pipe 
when tightening fittings.

Use only pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and 
LP gas. Do not use TEFLON

®

 tape. 

You will need to determine the fittings required depending on 
your installation.

4. Place cooktop into the countertop cutout.

NOTE: Check that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel to 
the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is needed, 
lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching the 
countertop.

1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the 

smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters (see B 
and F in the following illustration). 

2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the 

other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.

3. Use a 

¹⁵⁄₁₆" combination wrench and channel lock pliers to 

attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that 
connector is not kinked. 

1. Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The 

valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.

2. Test all connections by brushing on an approved 

noncorrosive leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear, a 
leak is indicated. Correct any leak found.

3. Remove cooktop burner caps, burner bases and grates from 

parts package. Place burner bases on cooktop. Place burner 
caps on burner bases. Place grates over burners and caps.

4. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

5. Check the operation of the surface burners. See “Check 

Operation of Cooktop Burners” section in the “Complete 
Installation” section.

6. If your model has a grill or griddle, see “Install Grill Grease 

Trays” or “Install Griddle” section.

1. Remove flame spreader. Pull forward slightly on the flame 

spreader to release the tabs from the rear slots and lift out.

2. Cut and remove tie strap from rear of burner assembly.

3. Lift burner assembly up and out to remove.
