The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be dis-
connected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess
of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
When checking the manifold gas pressure, the inlet pres-
sure to the regulator should be at least 7.0"(17.4 mb) W.C.
for natural gas or 11.0" (27.4 mb) for propane. DO NOT at-
tempt any adjustment of the pressure regulator.
CAUTION
Save the orifices removed from the appliance for future
use. When connecting appliance to propane gas, make
certain the propane gas tank is equipped with its own high
pressure regulator in addition to the pressure regulator
supplied with the appliance. The pressure of the gas sup-
plied to the appliance regulator must not exceed a 14" wa-
ter column (34.9 mb).

WARNING
Before installing, turn power OFF at the service panel.
▶
Lock service panel to prevent power from being turned
ON accidentally.
WARNING
Always disconnect appliance from the electric supply ei-
ther by disconnecting power cord or shutting off the
breaker at the service panel before servicing the appli-
ance.
WARNING
This appliance must be properly grounded.
Electrical grounding instructions
▶
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong ground-
ing plug for your protection against shock hazard and
should be plugged directly into a properly grounded re-
ceptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong
from this plug.
CAUTION
Improper grounding or reverse polarization will cause mal-
function, such as continuous sparking of the burner ignit-
ers. This can damage the appliance and can create a con-
dition of shock hazard.
▶
If the dedicated circuit is not correctly grounded and po-
larized, it is the responsibility and obligation of the in-
staller and user to have the existing receptacle changed
to a properly dedicated grounded and polarized recep-
tacle.
▶
This must be accomplished by a qualified electrician in
accordance with all applicable local codes and ordi-
nances. In the absence of local codes and ordinances,
the receptacle replacement shall be in accordance with
the National Electrical Code.
INSTALLER - show the owner the location of the circuit
breaker. Mark it for easy reference.
8.1 Electrical supply circuit requirements
The cord supplied with the gas rangetops having an electric griddle requires a NEMA 5-20 receptacle. All other gas appli-
ances require a NEMA 5-15 receptacle.
Model Voltage Dedicated circuit Phase
PCG305W 120 VAC 15 Amps Single
PCG366W 120 VAC 15 Amps Single
PCG364WD 120 VAC 20 Amps Single
PCG486WD 120 VAC 20 Amps Single
¡ Before you plug in an electrical cord, be sure all controls
are in the OFF position.
¡ A neutral supply wire must be provided from the power
source (breaker) because critical range components, in-
cluding the surface burner spark reignition modules, re-
quire it to operate safely and properly.
¡ All 120 volt models must be plugged into a mating 3-
prong, grounding-type receptacle. The receptacle must
be connected to a properly dedicated grounded and po-
larized electrical power supply rated at 120 VAC, single
phase, 60 Hz.
¡ Observe all governing codes and ordinances when
grounding. In the absence of these codes or ordinances
observe National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA 70 cur-
rent issue, or the relevant Canadian Electrical Code,
CSA C22.1 latest edition.
¡ Power cord and receptacle should protrude no more
than 2" (51 mm) from the rear wall.
¡ Plug styles may vary.
