Safety
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLER: LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE APPLIANCE AFTER INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE. IMPORTANT: SAVE FOR THE LOCAL INSPECTOR'S USE.
Important Safety
Instructions
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency, or manufacturer.
•Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
•Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
Equipment and Usage Safety Requirements
•Before you plug in an electrical cord, be sure all controls are in the OFF position.
•To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over 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 inches (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
•This appliance has been tested in accordance with ANSI/UL 858 Standard for Safety for Household Electric Ranges and CAN/CSA-22.2 No.61 National Standard of Canada for Household Cooking Ranges. It is the responsibility of the owner and installer to determine if additional requirements and standards apply in specific installations.

Countertop
Requirements
No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015-inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024-inch (0.6 mm) aluminum, or 0.020-inch (0.5 mm) thick copper. Flame retardant materials bear the mark:
UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC.
CLASSIFIED
MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS
SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS
Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings, these designations are shown as “FHC (Flame Spread) / (Smoke Developed)”. Materials with “O” flame spread ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow other flame spread ratings.
The minimum horizontal clearance from the sides and back edge of the cooktop to the adjacent vertical combustible walls is 0 (zero) inches.
Countertop cutout dimensions are shown in the figure and table below. A range of cutout dimensions is shown because the actual dimensions depend upon whether the installation is for replacement, new construction, or installation in a solid surface countertop material, such as Surel™ or Corian®.
Solid surface countertops require larger cutouts, use of heat reflective tape and rounded corners. Always consult the countertop manufacturer for specific installation instructions. For solid surface countertop installations, use the maximum cutout dimensions below and consult the surface manufacturer for specific cutting instructions.

This unit is not approved for installation over an oven.
Power Supply is dual rated: 240 Volts or 208 Volts, 4 wire, 60 Hz, with the following circuit breaker requirements:
English 3
•40 Amp circuit breaker
•240 Volt, 4 Wire, 60 Hz / 208 Volt, 4 Wire, 60 Hz
Connect only to a 4-wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt AC system. The neutral is required for the operation of this appliance and an independent ground is required.
|
WARNING: To avoid electrical shock hazard, before installing the |
|
cooktop, switch power off at the service panel and lock the panel to |
|
prevent the power from being switched on accidentally. |
1) Prepare Power Supply |
• Install a junction box (not supplied), below the counter top within 3 feet (91.4 |
|
cm) of flexible conduit (supplied) located at the left rear corner of the cooktop |
|
rough-in box. |
|
• Plan the installation of the unit so the location of the junction box is within 3 |
|
feet (91.4 cm) of the left rear of the cooktop bottom. |
|
• The junction box must be accessible from the front of the cabinet. |

Foam tape is provided to seal the cooktop edges to the countertop. Seal the cooktop with the foam tape as follows:
Important: Apply the tape starting at a middle point of any edge of the cooktop. Do not start at any corner of the cooktop.
3.Overlap the end of the tape with the start of the tape and cut through the center of the overlapping pieces with the scissors to ensure the ends of the tape create a tight-fitting butt joint.

3) Prepare the Countertop |
The cutout dimensions depend upon whether the installation is for replacement, |
|
new construction, or installation in a solid surface countertop material, such as |
|
Surel™, Corian® etc. Countertops made from natural (i.e. granite and marble) or |
|
SOLID SURFACE MATERIALS, such as Surell™ and Corian® require larger cut- |
|
outs, use of heat reflective tape and rounded corners. Always consult the counter- |
|
top manufacturer for specific instructions. |
|
For Standard Countertops |
|
1. Cut out the countertop according to the dimensions shown in Table 1. |
For Solid Surface Countertops
3.Apply heat reflective tape (such as Scotch® Aluminum Foil Tape #425 or #427) around the cutout so that it folds over the top and side surfaces. Be sure the tape extends beyond the outermost flange of the cooktop. All corners should also be covered with tape.

1.Turn cooktop upside down and attach the brackets to the burner box using the washers and screws. Use the unthreaded screw holes for attaching the bracket to the cooktop. The threaded screw holes are needed for the clamping screws that attach the bracket to the countertop in a later step.
3.Place cooktop into cutout. Center cooktop in the cutout to ensure adequate clearance between the burner box and countertop edge. (A light pencil mark along the center of front edge and side edge of cooktop and counter will aid in the positioning of the cooktop in the center.)

4.Place a wood block on the underside of the cabinet where the adjusting screw will meet the countertop. The adjusting screws will tighten down on the wood block to clamp the cooktop tightly to the countertop. This will protect the countertop surface from damage.

|
|
|
proper operation, untwist and connect to the required four wire system. |
|
|
|
NOTE: If the cooktop is installed and connected as specified above, it will be com- |
|
|
|
pletely grounded in compliance with the National Electrical Code. |
