If you received a damaged component, you should contact your dealer.

Installation of these components require basic mechanical skills. Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

CAUTION: FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, REMOVE HOUSE FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

These appliances must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, as listed on page 18. Connect to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Proper electrical ratings should be verified with listing on product’s rating plate.

Wiring must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code. If the electric supply provided does not meet the specifications, call a licensed electrician.

WARNING:

Any home ventilation system, such as a cooktop with a downdraft mechanism, may interfere with the proper flow of exhaust products or combustion air required by gas furnaces, gas water heaters, fireplaces, or

other naturally vented systems. To minimize the chance of interference with such naturally vented systems, follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines, and local codes. Also follow the guidelines in ASHRAE Standard 62-1989, “Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality”, section 5.8. When following these guidelines, be sure to test for proper airflow direction into the draft hood of a naturally vented gas furnace or water heater. This can be checked by striking a match, blowing it out, and while it is still smoking, holding it near the draft hood relief opening. If smoke is drawn into the opening, vent flow is in the proper direction. If the ASHRAE Standard 62 guidelines are not satisfied, a positive supply of outside air may have to be supplied.

In the absence of local codes, the gas cooktop must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.

Consider base cabinet storage arrangements to accommodate the downdraft blower/ motor assembly.

The downdraft plenum assembly will occupy the cabinet below the cooktop. Drawers cannot be installed below the downdraft vent or downdraft grill components. The blower may be installed in the cabinet or located downstream from the plenum in the duct run.

Shorter length drawers may be installed below gas components, allowing for gas inlet clearance.

Do not cut holes for ductwork locations until components are on-site, with countertop in place, and all pre-planned locations are confirmed.

Always pre-plan electrical and gas connections to be accessible at the time of installation.

Consider the distance to power supply, cable length and bending restrictions before cutting holes.

Gas components are not convertible to liquid propane operation.

In the absence of local codes, the gas cooktop must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.

UL, A.G.A. approved.

Multiple gas and electric components can be combined to form one custom cooking arrangement.

Multiple electric components can operate from a single junction box, if local codes permit.

Multiple gas components can operate from a manifold, as permitted by local codes.

Updraft components can be vented according to normal exhausting methods.

The downdraft vent and grill blower assembly may be vented downwards to the left or right sides or through the floor. See page 11.

The motor blower assembly can be mounted in the cabinet or under the floor. The blower will fit between floor joists on 16" centers.

The plenum on the downdraft grill and vent is shipped with the discharge on the left side. It can be changed to discharge from the right side.

JXBC55 optional outdoor cover accessory may be ordered for installation of blower and motor assembly on an outside wall.

Installation

Location

Cabinetry

Component Cooktop System

Whenever possible, avoid placing cabinetry directly above the cooking surface.

If cabinetry is used above the cooking surface:

Use cabinets no more than 13" deep.

Maintain 30" minimum clearance between cooktop(s) and unprotected cabinets directly above the cooktop.

If clearance is less than 30", protect cabinet bottoms with flame-retardant millboard at least 1/4" thick or gypsum board at least 3/16" thick covered with 28 gauge sheet steel or .02" thick copper.

Clearance between cooktop and protected cabinetry must not be less than 24".

Working areas next to the cooktops should have 18" minimum clearance between the countertop and the cabinet bottom.

EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven or cooking appliance over the cooktop(s) shall conform to the installation instructions packed with that appliance.

• Installation must conform with local codes.

Clearances:

When installed electric components require the following clearances:

2" min. from front of cooktop to front edge of countertop,

1" min. from back of cooktop to rear wall,

1" min. from side of cooktop to side wall. Gas components require:

2" min. from back of cooktop to rear wall,

2" min. from side of cooktop to side wall.
