• Make sure your cooktop is correctly installed and adjusted by a qualified service
technician or installer for the type of gas (natural or LP) you will use. For your
cooktop to utilize LP gas, the installer must replace the 4 cooktop burner orifices
with the provided LP orifice set, and reverse the regulator value. These
adjustments must be made by a qualified service technician in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority
having jurisdiction. The qualified agency performing this work assumes the gas
conversion responsibility.
• Installation of this cooktop must conform with local codes or, in the absence
of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA.54, latest
edition. In Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
• A statement of the gas supply pressure for checking the regulator setting. [The
pressure stated shall be at least 1 in wc (249 Pa) above the manufacturer's
specified manifold pressure.]
• Not obstructing the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• Top burner flame size sahll be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge
of the cooking utensil. This instruction is based on safety considerations.
