IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this cooktop must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edition in the United
States, or in Canada, with the Canadian Fuel Gas Code,
CAN/CGA B149 and CAN/CGA B149.2.
This cooktop has been design certified by American Gas
Association (A.G.A.). As with any appliance using gas
and generating heat, there are certain safety precautions
you should follow. You will find them in the Use and
Care Guide, read it carefully.
• Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• This cooktop must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70—latest edition in the United States, or in
Canada, with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA
C22.1 Part 1.
• The burners can be lit manually during an
electrical power outage. To light a burner, hold a
lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the
Surface Control knob to LITE. Use caution when
lighting burners manually.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the cooktop. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the cooktop to reach
items.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface
burners, cabinet storage space above the burners
should be avoided.
• Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
• Never use your cooktop for warming or heating
the room. Prolonged use of the cooktop without
adequate ventilation can be hazardous.
(Models with Optional Electric Built-In Oven Combination)
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
The electrical power to the cooktop
must be shut off while line connections are being
made. Failure to do so could result in serious
injury or death.
1. Before Installing the Cooktop
Foam Tape
A roll of foam tape is supplied loose and packed in the
literature package. Install the foam around the
perimeter of the flange of the burner box, at a distance
of ¼" (0.6 cm) from the edge of the glass or porcelain
top. Apply the exposed adhesive side of the tape
against the underside of the glass or the burner box
surface (see figure 3).
NOTE: This tape seals the underside of the cooktop to
the counter. Do not remove this foam tape. This
tape prevents entry of air for normal gas combustion, and prevents liquids from leaking under the cooktop.
After inserting the cooktop into the countertop
opening, make sure the unit is sitting on the metal
flange around the top of the burner box. Cooktop
must not sit on the glass or porcelain top. Avoid
cutting an oversized hole in the countertop.
