Installation instructions.
Electrical Supply:
The built-in gas downdraft cooktop features pilotless
electric ignition for energy savings and reliability. It
operates on a 120 volt, 60 Hz power supply. A
separate circuit, protected by a 15 amp time delay
fuse or circuit breaker, is required.
■ A properly grounded 3-prong receptacle should be
located within reach of cooktop’s four foot power
cord.
IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully.)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance. The customer should have the wall
receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly
grounded and has correct polarity.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
Do Not, Under Any Circumstances, Cut Or Remove The
Third (ground) Prong From The Power Cord.
Do not use an extension cord.

Gas Supply:
These cooktops are designed to operate on
natural gas at 4
″
of water column pressure or
on LP gas at 10
″
of water column pressure.
■ These cooktops are shipped from the factory set for
natural gas. If you decide to use this cooktop with LP
gas, conversion adjustments must be made by a
service technician or other qualified person. Order
JXLP56 Conversion Kit.
■ The pressure regulator must be connected in series
with the manifold of the cooktop and must remain in
series with the supply line regardless of type of gas
being used.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure
to the regulator must be no more than 10
″
water
column pressure for natural gas and 14
″
water
column pressure for LP gas.
■ When checking the regulator, the inlet pressure
must be at least 1
″
greater than the regulator output
setting.
If the regulator is set for 4
″
of water column pressure,
the inlet pressure must be at least 5
″
.
If the regulator is set for 10
″
of water column
pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 11
″
.
For ease of installation, and if local codes permit, the
gas supply line into the cooktop should be 1/2
″
or
3/4
″
ID flexible metal appliance connector, three to
five feet long.
NOTE: Purchase a new flexible line. DO NOT USE AN
OLD PREVIOUSLY USED LINE.
■ Make gas connection through rear wall, or on
cabinet floor at rear, as illustrated.
