qualified installer or service technician.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching
over heated surface elements, cabinet storage
located above the surface units should be avoided.

can be reduced by installing a range hood that
projects horizontally a minimum of 5″ beyond the
bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet installation above

• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings around the

generated by the cooktop.
• The cooktop should be easy to reach and lighted with
natural light during the day.
• Always disconnect the electrical service to the cooktop
before repairing or servicing the cooktop. This can be
done by disconnecting the fuse or circuit breaker.
Failure to do this could result in a dangerous or fatal
shock. Know where your main disconnect switch is
located. If you do not know, have your electrician
show you.
Check local building codes for the proper method
of cooktop installation. Local codes vary. Installation,
electrical connections and grounding must comply
with applicable codes.
Electrical Requirements
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or a time delay fuse as noted
on the rating plate.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your cooktop connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you where your main range disconnect

wiring, you must use special UL approved connectors for joining copper to aluminum.
You must use a two-wire, three conductor 208/240VAC, 60 Hertz electrical system. A white (neutral) wire
is not needed for this unit. The cooktop must be installed in a circuit that does not exceed 125 VAC nominal
