POWER SUPPLY LOCATIONS

Gas Supply:

• 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 the type of gas being used.

• The natural gas models are designed to operate at 5" water

column pressure. A regulator is required at the natural gas
source to provide a maximum of 7" water pressure to the
cooktop regulator.

• The liquid propane models are designed to operate at 10"

water column pressure. A regulator is required at the LP
source to provide a maximum of 14" water pressure to the
cooktop regulator.

• These gas cooktops are supplied with 1/2" NPT female gas

connection located at the left rear corner.

• A minimum 5/8" dia. metal flexible line is required.

– Use 5-foot long 5/8" flexible metal tubing. (Length must

comply with local codes.)

• For rigid connection, locate the pipe stub within area shown.
• Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas line, in an easily

accessible location.

Electric Supply:

connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
three-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the
