Electrical & Gas Requirements

Electrical RequirementsThere is no connection necessary beyondplugging the unit into a polarized, grounded,120 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. A minimum of120 VAC is required for proper operation of gasignition systems. DO NOT use a GFI circuit.This circuit, however, MUST be grounded andproperly polarized. The unit is equipped with16-3 SPT2 power cord.

Note: If electrical power is not supplied or isinterrupted, the open top burners will have to belit manually with a match.

Gas Connection• Thread the appliances pressure regulator with1/2” male end connection both supplied withthis appliance.

• Make the gas connection to the inlet of thepressure regulator with 1/2” male pipe threads.

• Join the pressure regulator to the entrancethreads of the Gas Manifold with gasketsupplied with this appliance. The regulator ismarked with a directional arrow indicatingcorrect direction of gas flow. Ensure theappliance regulator is installed with the arrowpointing toward the gas manifold entrance andmake sure the top of the regulator is facingtowards the cabinet front, easily accessiblethrough the cabinet doors.

• Install a coupling between the regulator andthe shutoff valve to complete the connection.

• Assure all pipe joint connections are gas tight.• Check alignment of valves after connecting thecooktop to the gas supply to be sure themanifold pipe has not been moved. Amisalignment could cause the valve knob stemto rub on the control panel, resulting in a gasleak at the valve.

If an oven is to be installed below this appliance,connect gas supply line as shown in Figure 1.Consider the below cabinet clearance.

Manual shut-off valve:• The supplied valve must be installed in thegas service line ahead of the appliance andregulator in the gas stream. It should bepositioned where it can be reached quickly inthe event of an emergency.

In Massachusetts: A “T” handle type manualgas valve must be installed in gas supply line tothe appliance.

Pressure regulator:• The regulator supplied with the DGVUcooktops must be installed before any gasconnections are made. It is pre-set for use withnatural gas. This must be converted to use withLP/Propane gas.

• Manifold pressure should be checked with amanometer. Natural gas requires 5.0” WCPand LP/Propane requires 10.0” WCP. Incomingline pressure upstream for the regulator mustbe 1” WCP higher than the manifold pressurein order to check the regulator.

• The regulator used on this cooktop canwithstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2 PSI(14.0” WCP). If the line pressure is in excess ofthat amount, a step down regulator will berequired.

• The manual shut off valve and pressureregulator on these cooktops must bedisconnected from the gas supply pipingsystem during any pressure testing of thatsystem at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI(3.45kPa.)

• The cooktop must be isolated from the gassupply piping system by closing its individualmanual shut-off valve during any pressuretesting of the gas supply piping system at testpressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSI(3.45kPa).

IMPORTANT: NEVER reuse old connectorswhen installing this cooktop.

1312

Rigid Connections:• Incoming gas is brought from an intake pipe atthe rear of the unit to the pressure regulator;then to the manifold pipe for distribution. Theintake pipe and shut-off valve are not supplied.The intake pipe and the shut-off valve shouldbe connected to the regulator to complete theconnection.

In Massachusetts: This appliance must beinstalled with a 36” (3-foot) long flexible gasconnector.

• Installer-supplied intake pipes should bechecked visually for any foreign matter beforeinstalling in a service line.

Before placing the cooktop into operation,always check for gas leaks with a soapywater solution or other acceptable method.DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TOCHECK FOR LEAKS.
