This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

INSTALLATIONREQUIREMENTS
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed
here. Tools needed
• Tape measure
• 1¼,(6.35 mm) nut driver
Parts supplied
• Foam strip roll • 21/2'' (6.4 cm) clamping
• Clamping brackets (2) screws (2)
Parts needed
• A UL listed or CSA approved connector for 1/2"(1.3 cm) diameter conduit
• UL listed wire connectors
Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See the "Electrical Requirements" section.
It is recommended that all electrical connections be made by a licensed, qualified electrical installer.
• Marker or pencil
• Pliers
• Flat-blade screwdriver
Ovens approved for this type of installation will have an approval label located on the top of the oven. If you do not
find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your oven is approved. Refer to oven manufacturer's Installation
Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and proper cutout dimensions.
The cooktop should be installed away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors, fans or strong heating vents.
The cooktop should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
• Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are
minimum clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance.
• Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical Requirements" section.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not
discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. When installing cooktop, use minimum dimensions given.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over the 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" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
The cooktop must be a specified cooktop that is approved to be installed either alone or over an undercounter built-in
oven. Check the cooktop base for an approved installation label. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to
confirm that your cooktop is approved.
• The cooktop must be installed in a level countertop.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing. Use 8 gauge copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes. Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded. Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-1atest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

Before You Make the Electrical Connection: To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.
• A 3-wire or 4-wire, single phase, 120/240 volt, 60-Hz., AC only electrical supply is required on a separate, 40-amp
circuit fused on both sides of the line. The model/serial number rating plate is located on the metal cabinet
underneath the cooktop. See the following illustration. NOTE: A separate 30-amp circuit fused on both sides of the
line can be used for models W5CE3024 and G9CE3065.
NOTES: After making the countertop cutout, some installations may require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear
the cooktop base. To avoid this modification, use a base cabinet with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 51/2"(14.0 cm) depth clearance from the top of the countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base cabinet is required.

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Avoid drilling into or severing existing wiring during installation.
1. Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a covered surface using the foam end posts from the packaging. Make sure that the knobs are not resting on the
foam.
2. Remove foam strip roll from the package containing literature. The roll contains four 1¼,,(0.64 cm) strips of foam. Remove one strip at a time and apply foam strip adhesive-side down around bottom of the cooktop glass.
NOTE: The foam strip helps avoid damage to the underside of the cooktop glass from debris and helps the cooktop sit
flat on uneven counters.

Style 1: Cooktop over undercounter built-in oven IMPORTANT: Clamping brackets should not be used.
1. Using 2 or more people, place cooktop right side up into the cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching the countertop.
Style 2: Cooktop over cabinets
1. Determine whether your cabinet construction provides clearance for installing clamping brackets at cooktop base
ends.

Installing Brackets After Placing Cooktop in Cutout
1. Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a covered surface using the foam end posts from the packaging. Make sure that the knobs are not resting on the
foam.
2. Remove the attachment screws for the bracket locations from the bottom of the cooktop base.
3. Select bracket mounting holes that will allow the bracket to extend far enough out from the cooktop for the installation of 21/2"(6.4 cm) clamping screws. See the "Attach Cooktop to Countertop" section for illustration of clamping screw
installation.

NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching the countertop.
8. Loosen the screws and rotate the brackets so that they are perpendicular to the edge of the cooktop base and extend
beyond its edge. Securely tighten screws.
