wire, 60 Hz, with the following circuit breaker
requirements:
NEM93 at 40 Amps
Model NEM73 at 30 Amps; Model
A
JUNCTION BOX LOCATION D
Plan the installation of the unit so that the location of
the junction box is within 3 feet of the left rear of the
cooktop bottom. It must be accessible from the
front of the cabinet.
Connect only to a 3-wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt ac
system. The neutral is not required for the operation
of this appliance but an independent ground is required.
Install a junction box (not supplied), below the counter
top within 3 feet of flexible conduit (supplied) located
at the left rear corner of the cooktop rough-in box.

CABINET PREPARATION AND
CLEARANCES
C
CAUTION
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 in. (127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets. See C, Page 2.
This unit is designed for installation in the counter top
with zero clearance to adjacent walls and projecting
surfaces constructed of combustible materials. A 30inch minimum clearance is required between the top
of the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected
cabinet. A 24-inch minimum distance is necessary when
the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected
by not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material
covered with not less than 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:
COUNTERTOP CUTOUT
DIMENSIONS
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
cutouts, use of heat reflective tape and rounded
corners. Drawings G and H provide some guidelines
only (see Page 4 and 5). Always consult the countertop
manufacturer for specific installation instructions.

INSTALLING THE COOKTOP
!
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.
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 zero inches.
Seal with foam tape
A foam tape is provided to seal the cooktop edges to
the countertop (see page 4). Turn cooktop upside down
and apply tape approximately 1/16” from the glass
edges. Use tape around the entire glass perimeter cut
off excess where tape ends butt.
Secure Cooktop to countertop
The cooktop should be secured to the countertop
using the hold-down brackets provided. Prior to
inserting cooktop into cutout, turn cooktop upside
down and attach brackets to the burner box using the
washers and screws.
Place cooktop into cutout. Insert clamping screws into
the brackets and secure cooktop to countertop.
Use a wood block to protect fragile countertop
materials.

Solid Surface Countertops H
Always consult the countertop manufacturer
for specific instructions.
Countertops made from natural (i.e. granite and
marble) or SOLID SURFACE MATERIALS, such as
Surell™ and Corian
preparation and installation procedures. Follow the
guidelines below and on pages 2-4 for preparing the
cutout.
Install the cooktop as follows:
1. Round the cutout corners according to
instructions from the countertop manufacturer.
2. 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.
3. Attach brackets to the burner box using washers
and screws provided. Use a wooden block
underneath the countertop before tightening the
bracket screws.
4. 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.)
