LP Conversion Instructions
• With the installation of this conversion kit, the
cooktop should operate on LP gas at 10
″ of water
column pressure.
• The pressure regulator must be connected in series
with the manifold of the cooktop and must remain
in series with the supply line. For proper operation,
the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator must
be no more than 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 10
″ of
water column pressure, the inlet pressure must
be at least 11.

IMPORTANT –
Disconnect the cooktop
and the individual shut-off valve from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system
at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig. Isolate the
cooktop from the gas supply piping system by closing
the individual manual shut-off valve to the cooktop
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or greater than 1/2 psig.
GAS SUPPLY
