General Precautions
This section promotes the cooktop’s proper/safe/successful operation. Failure to observe these precautions may damage the cooktop, cause it to malfunction, or render it unusable, and puts you and others at risk of injury or even death.
WARNING
• Concerning the cooktop in general:
- Never leave the cooktop operating at power Level 5 or above; boil-overs cause smoke, and greasy spill-overs may ignite.
- Do not install this appliance outdoors or near water (e.g., pool, stream, pond) whether in-/outdoors.
- Before using the cooktop, read the Use and Care Manual.
- If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer/builder. Do not install/use a damaged appliance.
- Ensure the cooktop is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer and as specified in this manual.
- Ensure the homeowner knows how to turn off power to the appliance at the circuit-breaker panel or fuse box.
- Install/repair/replace only the parts specified in the cooktop manuals. (A qualified technician must perform all other service.)
• Concerning cooktop handling/operation:
- Clean the cooktop after installation/before first use.
- Use the cooktop only as the manufacturer intends. (For questions about use, contact Dacor Customer Service.)
- Do not tamper with the cooktop controls.
- Do not block any manufacturer-designed holes/airways in the cooktop chassis. (Doing so may cause a fire hazard.)
- During/after use, do not touch, or let clothing or flammable materials contact the cooktop until it has cooled sufficiently.
- Ensure no one uses the cooktop without knowing how to operate it properly.
- When a self-cleaning oven is installed below the cooktop, do not use the cooktop during the oven’s self-clean process.
• Concerning people/pets:
- People with pacemakers or other electronic medical devices should know that the electromagnetic field generated by an induction cooktop may interfere with the function of such devices. Consult your doctor or medical-device manufacturer for safety instructions in your particular case. Advise anyone with this medical condition to be cautious around the active cooktop.
- To avoid serious personal injury or death, never let children sit/stand/climb on the cooktop or play with any part of it.
- Do not leave children/pets unattended around an operating cooktop.
- Do not store items of interest to children on/above the cooktop.
- Heated non-stick coatings release micro-particles that are toxic to birds. When using non-stick cookware, move birds to a separate, well-ventilated room.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Precautions, cont.
WARNING
• Concerning cooktop service/maintenance:
- Before installing/servicing the unit, switch power off at the service panel, then lock the panel to prevent power from being switched on. If the panel cannot be locked, securely/prominently fasten a warning device (e.g., tag) to the service panel.
- Clean/maintain the cooktop regularly as instructed in the Use and Care manual; a dirty cooktop is a possible fire hazard.
• Concerning cooking practices:
- Use the cooktop only for tasks consistent with a home appliance. This cooktop is not engineered for commercial/industrial use.
- Do not let pans boil dry.
- Do not turn the cooktop ON with empty cookware on a cooking element.
- To prevent steam burns, do not remove cookware from the cooktop with wet potholders, and use extreme caution when adding water to food in a hot pan.
- To avoid personal injury or appliance damage, use only ferrous (magnetic) cookware.
• Concerning foreign objects on/above/near the cooktop, do not:
- keep items on the cooktop.
- place plastic items on the hot glass surface.
- place or cook with aluminum foil directly on the glass; the foil can melt and mar the glass.
- place objects on/near the cooktop controls to avoid accidentally activating the cook zones.
- keep flammable/explosive vapors and liquids (e.g., paper/plastic/cloth, gas, alcohol, aerosol cans) on or near the cooktop.
- store flammable/explosive materials in adjacent cabinets or areas (incl. above/below the cooktop).
- hang flammable/heat-sensitive objects over the cooktop.
- use window treatments that could blow over the cooktop and create a fire hazard.
CAUTION
• Concerning scratching or otherwise damaging the cooktop surface, do not:
- operate the appliance if the glass is broken or severely pitted. (The cooktop glass resists impact, but foreign objects dropped with enough force can crack or pit it.) Cleaning solutions and spill-overs may penetrate a broken cooktop, creating an electric­shock risk. Contact a qualified technician immediately to replace a damaged/pitted cooktop.
- set cookware with sharp-edged bottoms, support legs, or lower corners on the cooktop.
- allow acidic foods/juices (e.g., citrus, pineapple, tomato sauce, wine, cranberry) or foods made with these items, linger on the cooktop surface (wipe the up immediately); remove cooked-on residue with a razor scraper.
- use a sharp or sharp-edged object (e.g., knife, metal spatula) to clean up spills.
- slide cookware across the cooktop.
- place hot cookware on a cold cooktop.
IMPORTANT
Testing found this cooktop model to be within the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 18 of FCC rules. These limits are meant to minimize the likelihood of harmful interference to household radio/TV reception from radio-frequency energy, which this appliance uses, generates, and radiates.
If the cooktop is not installed/operated as specified, harmful interference to household radio/TV reception may occur. Even proper installation, however, is no guarantee of prevention. If the cooktop interferes with radio/TV reception (turning the cooktop off and on will determine this), you may be able to correct the interference via any or all of these methods:
• Re-orient/relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the distance between the appliance and receiver/antenna.
• Connect the receiver to a different circuit.

INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS
Electrical Specifications
IMPORTANT
The cooktop’s electrical-connection lead wires may be a smaller gauge than is installed in your home; however, the National Electric Code and local inspection authority specify that smaller­gauge wire is compatible with the larger-gauge wire.
• The owner shall ensure that a licensed electrician installs the electrical supply for the cooktop.
• The electrical installation (incl. minimum supply wire size) must comply with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest revision), and local codes and ordinances. To obtain a copy of the standard, contact:
National Fire Protection Association 1 Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101
• Correct voltage/frequency/amperage must be supplied to the cooktop from a dedicated, grounded circuit protected by the correctly sized circuit breaker or time-delay fuse. If using the fuse, fuse both sides of the line (L1 and L2).
Total Connected Load* Dedicated Circuit Required
46.7 Amp. (11.2 kW) 240V, 60 Hz. 3-Wire** 50 Amp.
The specifications in this table are for reference only.
* See the product-data label for the current and exact specifications. ** Two 120V hot (L1 and L2), plus one ground (use all-copper wires in all lines)
• The junction box and the circuit breaker or fuse box must be accessible when the cooktop is in place.
Location Requirements
• Non-combustible material should be installed on the wall behind the cooktop; the surrounding cabinetry must be able to withstand the temperatures (max. 200°F) generated by the cooktop.
• To avoid a fire hazard, do not install the cooktop between two tall cabinets.
• To avoid burn injuries from reaching over an active cooking area, do not install cabinets above the cooktop. (If there are cabinets above the cooktop, install a range hood to discourage/prevent storage in those cabinets.
• Do not install the cooktop above a drawer. (The cooktop chassis must have sufficient space below for airflow and installation/inspection/service; see Under-Counter Clearance section, next page.)
• Follow all electrical specifications.
• Plan all installation aspects around local building codes; consult the local building department for details.)
• Install the junction box within reach of the cooktop’s 48-in. (122 cm) power conduit at the bottom-right rear of the chassis.
• Do not install another kitchen appliance below the cooktop.
WARNING
• To reduce risk of fire, and cooktop malfunction/damage, be sure to exceed all min/max clearances in these instructions.
• Do not modify the cooktop’s electrical conduit.
• Do not use an extension cord.
Cooktop Clearance/Ventilation
Under-Counter Clearance
For proper ventilation (to prevent a fire hazard), maintain:
• at least 4 3/4” (12.7 cm) clearance from the countertop to any surface below (incl. upper edges of drawers)
• 1 1/2” (3.8 cm) minimum clearance between the chas­sis’s front vents and the cabinet’s inside wall.
• If the cooktop chassis is fully enclosed, provide ventila­tion of at least 18 square inches into the enclosure.
Overhead Ventilation
To reduce smoke accumulation and risk of personal injury, a range hood should be installed above the cooktop. The hood should overhang the entire cooktop surface and project at least 5 in. beyond the bottom of any overhead cabinets.
Miscellaneous Installation
Countertop
• Always consult the countertop manufacturer for specific installation instructions/requirements.
• The cutout must accept the cooktop chassis’s corners.
