BUILT-INCOOKTOP SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

INSTALLATIONREQUIREMENTS

b c nd

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.
Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed

here.
Tools needed

• Tape measure • Marker or pencil

• Phillips head screwdriver • Pliers

Parts supplied

• 1" (2.5 cm) mounting screws (4)
Parts needed

• A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector

• UL listed wire connectors
Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See

"Electrical Requirements."
It is recommended that all electrical connections be made by a

licensed, qualified electrical installer.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
When installing cooktop, use minimum dimensions given.

• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over the
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above

the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to
be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range
hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm)
beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

• The cooktop must be a specified cooktop that is approved to
be installed either alone or over an undercounter built-in

oven. Check the cooktop base approved installation label for
your cooktop model number and approved combinations of

cooktops and ovens that can be installed. Ifyou do not find
this label, your cooktop may not be approved for use over an
undercounter built-in oven. Contact your dealer to confirm
that your cooktop is approved.

• Ovens approved for this type of installation will have an
approval label located on the top of the oven. If you do not
find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your oven is
approved. Refer to oven manufacturer's Installation
Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and

proper cutout dimensions.

• When installing cooktop over an undercounter built-in oven,
do not fasten cooktop to countertop with screws. This will

make the cooktop easier to remove if future servicing
becomes necessary.

• Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with
these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are

minimum clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance.

• Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical
Requirements" section.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your
builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used

will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.

NOTES: After making the countertop cutout, some installations
may require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear
the burner box. To avoid this modification, use a base cabinet

with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 31¼'' (9.6 cm) depth clearance from the

countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.
Use 8 gauge copper wire.

Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local

codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the

cooktop is properly grounded.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are

adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSl/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-1atest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

Before You Make the Electrical Connection:

To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.

• A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only
electrical supply is required on a separate, 40-amp circuit,

fused on both sides of the line. The model/serial number
rating plate is located on the metal cabinet underneath the

cooktop. See the following illustration.

A. Model/serial number plate

• Cooktops with 3-wire cable coming from the cooktop are
rated 240 volt and do not have a neutral (white) wire.

• The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box
through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper
cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse
box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the
junction box.

• Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible
between the junction box and the cooktop so that the
cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in the

future.
Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for

serviceability of the cooktop.

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install cooktop.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1=

Remove the shipping materials and tape from the cooktop.
Remove the hardware package from inside the bag
containing literature.

2=

Using 2 or more people, gently place the cooktop into the
cutout.

IMPORTANT: Check that the front edge of the cooktop is
parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is
needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching
the countertop.

A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the
cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector
is already provided at the cooktop.

If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:

1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.

2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of

copper wire using special connectors and/or tools

designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with

local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

3. Using 2 or more people, gently place the cooktop in cutout
and determine final location.

NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is
parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is
needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching
the countertop.

4. Mark on the countertop the location of the 4 mounting holes
at the corners of the cooktop. Set cooktop aside on a

covered surface.

• Pull the coil element straight away from the receptacle.

• Lift out the burner bowl.

2=

Remove the 4 screws from inside each element opening and
lift cooktop from cooktop base.

A. Mounting holes

5. Use 1/8"(3 mm) drill bit and drill 4 pilot holes.

6. Using 2 or more people, gently place the cooktop in cutout so
that the cooktop mounting holes align with the 4 pilot holes.

7. Attach the cooktop base to countertop with the 4 mounting
screws.

8. Reattach the cooktop to the cooktop base using the
4 screws.

9. Replace the coil elements and burner bowls.

• Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element

receptacle.

\

Holding the coil element as level as possible, slowly push

the coil element terminal into the receptacle.
When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as

it will go, push down the edge of the coil element

opposite the receptacle.
