Safety Practices for Servicer
Safe and satisfactory operation of gas cooktops depend
upon its design and proper installation. However, there is
one more area of safety to be considered:
Servicing
Listed below are some general precautions and safety
practices which should be followed in order to protect the
service technician and consumer during service and after
service has been completed.
1. Gas smell—Extinguish any and all open flames and
open windows.
2. Turn gas off—Service cooktop with gas turned off
unless testing requires it.
3. Checking for gas leaks—Never check for leaks with
any kind of open flame. Soap and water solution
should be used for this purpose. Apply solution to
suspected area and watch for air bubbles which
indicates a leak. Correct leaks by tightening fittings,
screws, connections, applying approved compound,
or installing new parts.
4. Using lights—Use a hand flashlight when servicing
cooktops or checking for gas leaks. Electric
switches should not be operated where leaks are
suspected. This will avoid creating arcing or sparks
which could ignite the gas. If electric lights are
already turned on, they should not be turned off.
5. Do not smoke—Never smoke while servicing gas
cooktops, especially when working on piping that
contains or has contained gas.
6. Check cooktop when service is completed—After
servicing, make visual checks on electrical
connection, and check for gas leaks. Inform
consumer of the condition of cooktop before leaving.
7. Adhere to all local regulations and codes when
performing service.
Before Installing
Installing the gas cooktop in compliance with local
electrical and gas building codes results in proper
operation and consumer satisfaction with the cooktop.
Receiving Cooktop
Inspect cooktop thoroughly at time of delivery.
Immediately report any visible damage to carrier. Damage
not discovered until after accepting delivery can still be
claimed by using a concealed damage report form,
available from the carrier's agent.
All shipments, i.e., complete cooktop or parts, are
shipped at the buyer's risk. Maytag's responsibility ends
when the consignment is accepted by the carrier in
"good order". Maytag supports damage claims by
supplying invoices, bills of laden, and other
documentation as needed. providing this assistance,
however, does not imply any responsibility for settling
claims. Do not deduct claims for loss or damage from the
invoice and do not withhold payment pending adjustment
of claims. Do not return any units or parts for credit
without written consent.
Unpacking
• Open the carton and slide cooktop out of packing.
• Remove all literature packed with the cooktop and
place cooktop onto a protective flat surface.
• Avoid countertop damage by NOT sliding cooktop
across the countertop.
• Remove grates, burner caps, and pressure regulator
from the carton.
WARNING
!
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets
above cooktop. Children may climb on cooktop to
reach these items and become seriously injured.
Safety Information
6 16022158 Rev. 0 ©2003 Maytag Appliances Company

a authorized installer recommended by manufacturer.
These appliances are designed for use with the appliance
gas pressure regulator supplied with the appliance. It
must be installed in the gas way ahead of the gas
manifold entrance. It is preset for use with natural gas and
must be converted for use with LP gas.
These appliances are designed to operate at a pressure of
4" to 5" W.C. on natural gas or if converted for use with
LP gas (propane or butane), 10" to 11" W.C. Make sure
the appliances are supplied with and adjusted for the type
of gas for which it is designed.
These appliances was adjusted at the factory for use with
natural gas. If, at any time, the appliances are to be used
with a different type of gas, all of the conversion
adjustments must be made by a qualified service
technician before attempting to operate the cooktop on
that gas. Natural gas should be supplied to the appliance
pressure regulator at a line pressure between 6" and 14"
W.C. or if converted for LP gas, between 11" and 14" W.C.
WARNING!
If the line pressure supplying the appliance pressure
regulator exceeds 14" W.C. (any gas), an external
regulator must be installed in the gas line ahead of the
appliance regulator to reduce the pressure to no more
than 14" W.C. Failure to do this can result in
malfunction and damage to the appliance.
Insure the appliance is adjusted for the type of gas
supplied to it and that the gas supply pressure to the
appliance regulator is within the proper pressure range.

must make the gas supply connection.
Leak testing of the appliance must be conducted by the
installer according to the instructions given.
1. IF NO OTHER APPLIANCE IS TO BE INSTALLED
BELOW THIS COOKTOP.
Join the appliance pressure regulator supplied with this
appliance to the entrance threads of the gas manifold. The
appliance regulator is marked with a directional arrow
indicating correct direction of gas flow. Ensure the
appliance regulator is installed with the arrow pointing
toward the gas manifold entrance. Tighten the appliance
regulator to 20 to 30 ft-lbs of torque.
IMPORTANT:
Never tighten to more than 35 ft-lbs of torque.
Always use an approved pipe joint compound
resistant to the action of LP gas.
Place appliance into counter cutout.
Connect inlet of the appliance pressure regulator using
1/2 male pipe threads. Install a manual shut-off valve in an
accessible location in the gas line before the appliance
pressure regulator and external to the appliance, for the
purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.
Make additional pipe connections as necessary before
the shut-off valve to the gas supply source. Assure all pipe
joint connections are tight.
IMPORTANT:
Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid to all
joints and fittings in the gas connection between
the supply line shut-off valve and the cooktop.
Include gas fittings and joints in the cooktop if
connections were disturbed during installation.
Check for leaks! Bubbles appearing around
fittings and connections will indicate a leak. If a
leak appears, turn off supply line gas shut-off
valve, tighten connections, turn on the supply line
gas shut off valve, and retest for leaks.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.
