PRESSURE REGULATOR
0 The regulator installed in the rangetop is adjusted at the factory for 5" WC (natural gas) or 10" WC (L.P.) depending on the
customer’s request. Regulators must not be removed.
0 The regulator can withstand a maximum pressure of 1/2 PSIG (14" WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a step-down
regulator will be required.
0 Any adjustment to regulators must be made ONLY BY QUALIFIED service personnel with proper test equipment.
GAS REQUIREMENTS
0 Ensure supplied gas matches the rangetop’s gas type.
