Important Notes for Gas Connection:
▯
The appliance and its individual gas shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
▯
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
Connect Electrical Supply
Before connecting the 5-foot (1.5m) supply cord to a wall
receptacle, make certain that gas shut-off valve and all
burner controls are in OFF position.
Burner Cap Placement
9 WARNING
To prevent flare-ups, do not use the cooktop without
all burner caps and all burner grates properly
positioned.
9 WARNING
To prevent burns, do not touch burner caps or
grates while hot. Turn the cooktop off and allow the
burners to cool.
Do not attempt any adjustment of the pressure regulator,
except conversion to propane.
The burner caps must be properly placed for the cooktop
to function properly. If the burner cap is not properly
placed, one or more of the following problems may
occur:
▯
Burner flames are too high.
▯
Flames shoot out of burners.
▯
Stainless steel discolors.
▯
Burners do not ignite.
▯
Burner flames light unevenly.
▯
Burner emits gas odor.
Burner Cap Placement
▯
Each cap has a letter (B, D or F) cast in the underside
of the cap that corresponds to a letter (B, D or F) cast
in the burner base that is attached to the appliance.
▯
After electrical connection is complete, place each
burner base on the corresponding location on the
cooktop. One of the three bars on the burner base
should line up with the notch and prevent the base
from rotating. The small hole or cutout near the edge
should also line up with the igniter. See Illustration
below.
▯
Once each base is located and resting evenly, place
each burner cap on its correct burner base. See
Illustration below.
▯
Place burner cap gently on top of base so that the
prongs of the burner base fit snugly into the groove of
the burner cap.
Placing Burner Caps
Checking Burner Cap Placement
▯
Check to make sure that there is no gap between the
burner cap and burner base. See illustration below for
correct and incorrect placements of the burner cap.
▯
You may gently try to move the burner cap from side
to side to check if it is properly placed. If properly
placed, the cap will click from side to side as the
prongs hit the groove ridge.
