GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Type of Gas
Natural Gas:
■ This cooktop is factory set for use with Natural gas. If converting to
LP gas, see the “LP Gas Conversion” instructions provided in the
package containing literature. The model/serial rating plate located on
the underside of the cooktop base has information on the types of gas
that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of
gas available, check with the local gas supplier.
LP Gas Conversion:
Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the cooktop from the gas specified
on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without
consulting the serving gas supplier. See the Gas Conversion instructions
provided in the package containing literature.

The supply line must be equipped with a manual shutoff valve. This
valve should be located in the same room but external to the cooktop
opening, such as an adjacent cabinet. It must be accessible without
removing the cooktop, and it should be in a location that allows ease
of opening and closing. Do not block access to shutoff valve. The
valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the cooktop.
