¡ The metal flex gas line must not be subject to rubbing,
vibrations, kinking or any other kind of deformation. It
should be checked along its entire length with the cook-
top in the installation position.
¡ All pipe connections must be sealed in accordance with
local codes.
▶ Connect the metal flex gas line or fixed metal pipe con-
nection from the cooktop pressure regulator to the man-
ual shut-off valve.
Checking the gas line for leaks
Check the gas supply line connections for leaks using a
soap solution or non-corrosive leak detection fluid. Do not
use a flame of any sort.
Note
Important notes for gas connection:
¡ The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing at pressures in excess of ½psi
(3.5kPa).
¡ The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply pip-
ing system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½psi
(3.5kPa).
1. Turn on gas.
2. Apply a soap solution or non-corrosive leak detection
fluid to all joints and fittings in the gas connection be-
tween the shut-off valve and the cooktop. Also check
gas fittings and joints in the cooktop if the connections
may have been disturbed during installation.
a Bubbles appearing around fittings and connections indi-
cate a leak.
3. If a leak appears, turn off the supply line gas shut-off
valve and tighten the connections.
4. Retest for leaks by turning on the supply line gas shutoff
valve.
a When the leak check is complete and no bubbles ap-
pear, the test is complete.
5. Wipe off all soap solution or detection fluid residue.
4.6 Connecting the electrical supply
CAUTION
Before you plug in the electrical cord, make sure that the
gas shut-off valve and all burner controls are in the OFF
position.
▶ Connect the plug of the electrical cord to a grounded
power outlet. The outlet must be accessible after the in-
stallation of the appliance is complete.
4.7 Assembling the burner parts
The burner parts must be properly placed for the cooktop
to function properly.
Note
If the burner parts are not properly placed, one or more of
the following problems may occur:
¡ The burner flames are too high.
¡ Flames shoot out of the burners.
¡ The burners do not ignite.
¡ The burner flames light unevenly.
¡ The burners emit gas odor.
WARNING
Remove all tape from the burner parts and the cooktop
surface before using the appliance.

Make sure that the prongs of the burner cap fit snugly
into the groove of the burner base.
2. Check to make sure that there is no gap between the
burner parts. You may gently try to move the burner
parts from side to side to check if they are properly
seated.
