INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation, adjustment of controls and maintenance must only be carried out by qualified personnel. Incorrect installation may cause damage to persons, animals or property for which the manufacturer will not be considered responsible. During the life of the system, the automatic safety or regulating devices on the appliance may only be modified by the manufacturer or by his duly authorized dealer.

Installing the Cooktop

☐ Check that the appliance is in good condition after having removed the outer packaging and internal wrappings from around the various loose parts. In case of doubt, do not use the appliance and contact qualified personnel.
☐ Never leave packaging materials (cardboard, bags, Styrofoam, nails, etc.) within the reach of children since these items could become sources of danger.
☐ The measurements of the opening made in the top of the modular cabinet and into which the cooktop will be installed are indicated in Fig. 1 and the following chart. Always comply with the measurements given for the hole into which the appliance will be recessed (see Figs. 1 and 2).

The Burner Flames

Turn each burner on. Flames should be blue in color with no trace of yellow. The burner flames should not flutter or blow away from the burner. The inner ring of the flame should be between 1/2" and 3/4" long.

Overhead Cabinets

  • The depth of the wall units must always be less than that of the bases. Refer to the distances indicated on the product labels. They must also be fixed with appropriate plugs! If you plan to completely fill the wall units, make sure they are solid, with sturdy backs and good metal hardware: otherwise refrain from filling them because they could fall apart!
  • Often the upper parts of the wall units are used to contain objects that are rarely used: they are therefore inaccessible for those who are confined to a wheelchair, while other people must use chairs or ladders. Thus, the dangers increase, particularly for the elderly. Power outlets and lighting switches under the wall unit must be reachable but away from dangerous contacts with water!

Sealing the Cooktop

The cooktop has a special seal which prevents liquid from infiltrating into the cabinet. Strictly comply with the following instructions in order to apply this seal correctly:

  1. Take off all the movable parts of the cooktop.
  2. Detach the seals from their backing, checking that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal itself.
  3. Overturn the cooktop and correctly position seal "E" (fig. 3) under the edge of the cooktop itself, so that the outer side of the seal perfectly matches the outer edge of the cooktop. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping.
  4. Evenly and securely fix the seal to the cooktop, pressing into place with the fingers and removethe strip of protective transparent film from the seal and set the plate into the opening made in the cabinet.
  5. Fix the cooktop with the proper brackets "S" and fit the prominent part into the porthole "H" onthe bottom; turn the screw "F" until the bracket "S" touches the top (fig. 4). In fastening the brackets, do not use a mechanical or electric screwdriver. Instead, use a hand-operated screwdriver and exert only moderate force.

The adjacent walls (left, right or behind) that exceed the cooktop in height must be at a minimum distance from the cut hole as indicated in Fig. 1 and the chart on the preceding pages.

In order to avoid accidentally touching the hot cooktop bottom, it is necessary to put a horizontal wooden insert, attached by screws, at a minimum distance of 2.5" (6.35cm) below the lower surface of the cooktop (see Fig. 1).

The appliance should not be installed with a ventilation system that blows air downward toward the appliance. It may cause ignition and combustion problems with the gas cooking appliance resulting in personal injury or unintended operation.

Gas Connection

Connect a manual shut-off valve to the gas supply in an accessible location for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

Summit GC431W - Gas Connection - 1

WARNING

A qualified service person or gas appliance installer must make the gas supply connection.

  • Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted by the installer according to the instructions given.
  • Issues arising from a failure to do so will not be covered by warranty.
  • Do not install the pressure regulator backwards as the gas will not flow correctly. Check that the arrow on the back points in the direction of gas flow.
  • Parts required for connection from gas supply to regulator are the responsibility of the installer/owner.
  • To reduce the likelihood of gas leaks, apply Teflon tape or a thread compound approved for use with Propane or Natural gases to all threaded connections. 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 inlet.
  • 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 shutoff valve, and retest for leaks. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.

Pressure Test Method

  • Remove grate and burner cap
  • Remove aluminum gas spreader
    • Temporarily remove the injectors
  • Connect the pressure Test instrument into injector holder thread zone (M6x0,75)
  • Check if the cooktop has the correct pressure
  • Fix the injector removed for testing and replace the parts in the right position.

Natural Gas and Propane Gas

- Natural gas installations require the connection of a gas regulator to the cooktop. You will find this regulator among the accessories supplied with the appliance.

- Assemble the regulator (noting the direction of gas flow) and transition pieces (supplied) in accordance with the figure below:

Summit GC431W - Natural Gas and Propane Gas - 1

Gas Requirements
Natural GasWC
Manifold Pressure4"(12.5 mb)
Min. Line Pressure5"(15 mb)
Max. Regulator Pressure14"(34.9 mb), 0.5 psi/3.5 kPa
Propane GasWC
Manifold Pressure11"(25 mb)
Min. Line Pressure12"(27.4 mb)
Max. Regulator Pressure14"(34.9 mb), 0.5 psi/3.5 kPa

- The transition piece on the supply side of the regulator must be provided by the installer. Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used and connections tested for gas leaks.

NOTE: Cooktops will function up to 2000 ft (610 m) in altitude without adjustment. If the installation exceeds these elevations, contact your authorized dealer for a high-altitude conversion kit.

- Be sure that the supply connection point is accessible after the appliance installed.

CAUTION: Be sure the hose assembly is restrained from accidental contact with the flue or flueoutlet of an under-counter oven.

Electrical Connection

The electrical connections of the appliance must be carried out in compliance with local standards and provisions.

Before connecting the appliance, check that:

  1. The electrical capacity of the main electrical supply and current sockets suit the maximum power rating of the appliance. (See the data label attached to the bottom of the cooktop.)

  2. The socket or system has an efficient ground connection in compliance with local standards and provisions. The manufacturer is not responsible for failure to comply with these provisions.

In Case of Electrical Failure

If for any reason a gas control knob is turned ON and there is no electric power to operate the electronic igniter of the cook top, turn OFF all gas control knobs and wait 5 minutes for the gas to dissipate before lighting the burner manually. To light the burner manually, carefully hold a lighted match to the burner ports and push and turn the gas control knob to HI until it lights and then turn the knob to desired setting.

Electrical Grounding

This appliance is equipped with a (three-prong) (four-prong) grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

ADJUSTMENTS

Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical power source before making any adjustments. All seals must be replaced by the technician when any adjustments are completed.

Taps

"Reduced rate" adjustment:

  1. Switch on the burner and turn the relative knob to the "Reduced rate" position (small flame, fig. 8 page 12).
  2. Remove knob "M" (fig. 6 and 6/A) of the tap, which is simply pressed on to its rod.
  3. The by-pass for minimal rate regulation can be: beside the tap (fig. 6) or inside the shaft. In any case, to access to regulation, it can be done through the insertion of a small screwdriver "D" beside the tap (fig. 6) or in the hole "C" inside the shaft of the tap (fig 6/A).
  4. Turn the throttle screw to the right or left until the burner flame has been adequately regulated to the "Reduced rate" position.

The flame should not be too low: the lowest small flame should be continuous and steady. Re-assemble the several components.

It is understood that only burners operating with Natural Gas or City Gas should be subjected to the above-mentioned adjustments. The screw must be fully locked when the burners operate with Propane (turn clockwise).

The operations described above can be carried out easily, whatever the position of the cooktop or however it is fastened to the work surface.

NOTE: The burners do not require any regulation of incoming air.

Although it is controlled by a single knob, the "DUAL" burner can be used in two different ways.

• Using the complete burner:

○ Starting from the Off position ■, you must first press the knob, simultaneously turning it counter-clockwise, until the indicator points to the maximum delivery position obtaining the maximum flow capacity of both flames.
- When the flames are lit, keep the knob pressed for a few seconds, until the device automatically keeps the burner lit.
It is now possible to regulate the intensity of the flame by turning the knob counter-clockwise (from the maximum flow capacity position of the inner and outer flames) to the maximum flow capacity of the inner flame and the minimum of the outer flame.
To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise, realigning the indicator with the ■ Off symbol.

• Using the inner flame only:

○ After lighting the burner and regulating the inner flame to maximum flow capacity and the outer flame to minimum flow capacity as described above, turn the knob counter-clockwise until it clicks once. The inner flame is now at maximum flow capacity while the outer flame isturned off.
○ Continue turning counter-clockwise to regulate the inner flame to the minimum flow capacity.

- Turning off:

To turn off the burner, turn the knob clockwise, realigning the indicator with the ■ Off symbol.
Once the "DUAL" burner is operating in either of the two modes described, it is possible to swap from one mode to the other by simply pressing and turning the knob to the position required.

CLEANING

CAUTION: Always disconnect the appliance from the gas and electricity supplies before carrying out any cleaning operation.

Continuous use can cause the burners to change color due to the high temperature. To properly clean your appliance, follow these steps:

Periodically wash the hot plate, the enameled steel pan support, the enameled burner caps "A", "B" and "C" and the burner heads "T" (see fig. 10 and 11) with lukewarm soapy water. Also clean plugs "AC" and flame detection "TC" (see fig. 10). Clean them gently with a small nylon brush as shown (see fig. 12) and allow to dry fully.

NOTE: Do not wash in the dishwasher. It is very important to clean the surface soon after every use, while the glass is still somewhat warm.

- Do not allow vinegar, coffee, milk, salt water, or lemon or tomato juice to remain in contact with the enameled surfaces for long periods of time.

- Do not clean using abrasive metal scourers, abrasive powders or corrosive sprays.

Before Remounting Parts

Comply with the following instructions, before remounting the parts:

  • Check that burner head slots have not become clogged by foreign bodies.
  • Check that enameled burner caps "A-B-C" (fig. 10-11) have been correctly positioned on the burner head. They must be steady.
  • The exact position of the pan support is established by the rounded corners, which should be set towards the side edge of the hot plate.
  • Do not force the taps if they are difficult to open or close. Contact customer service for technical assistance or repairs.
  • Correctly preserve the plate after use by treating it with special, easily available products. This will keep the surface of the plate clean and bright. The operation will also prevent the formation of rust.
  • Don't use steam jets to clean the equipment.
    • Food burnt onto an electric plate must be removed dry.
    • After use, pour a little lukewarm oil on the plate and wipe it with a cloth.
