IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRU S

• Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded

properly by a qualified installer or service technician,

• These cooktops must be electrically grounded in

accordance with toca[ codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSUNFPA No.

70--latest edition in the United States, or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada,

2. These units can consume up to 9700W at 240 Vac, a circuit breaker of 40 Amp with wire gauge #SAWG

shall be used.

NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance

with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70- latest edition, and local codes and ordinances.

An extension cord must not be used with this appliance, Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock, or other personal injury,

3. The appliance should be connected to the fused

disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. Tile flexible

armored cable extending from this appliance should be connected directly to tile grounded junction box. The junction box should be located as shown in Figure 2 with as much slack as possible remaining in the (:able between the box and the appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

4. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach

tile flexible armored cable to the junction box.

Unpacking Instructions

_The electrical power to the cooktop

must be shut off while line connections are being made, Failure to do so couId resuIt in serious injury

or death.

Provide Electrical Connection

Install the junction box under the cabinet and run !20/ 240 or 120/208 Volt, AC wire from the main circuit

panel. DO NOT connect the wire to the circuit panel at this time.

Electrical Requirements

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances,

1. A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208 Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply is required on a

separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (time- delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). DO NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the

circuit rating of the appliance specified on the nameplate.

Model and Serial PRate

Figure 3 (Under Cooktop)

Leave corner supports on cooktop until completion

of Electrical Connection.

Be sure the bottle of cleaner conditioner packed in the literature bag is left where the user can find it easily. It is important that the ceramic-glass smoothtop be pretreated before use. See Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance section in the Use and

Care Guide.

Electrical Connection

Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable

strain relief at tile point the armored cable enters the

junction box. Then make the electrical connection as

follows.

If your cooktop has a 4-wire cable to be connected

to a 3-wire grounded iunction box (see figure 5):

1. Disconnect tile power supply.

2. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box: connect appliance and power supply cable wires as shown in figure 5.

Electrical ground is required on this appliance.

This appliance is equipped with a

copper conductor flexible came. Jf connection is made to aluminum house wiring, use on[y specia[ connectors which are approved for joining cooper

and aluminum wires in accordance with the National EJectrica[ Code and toca[ codes and

ordinances. Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in a short

circuit or fire. Follow the connector manufacturer recommended procedure closely.

This appliance is manufactured with a frame connected green (or bare copper) ground wire.

DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe.

DO NOT connect to electrical power supply until app[iance is permanentJy grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on the power.

Where local codes permit connecting the appliance- grounding conductor to the neutra[ (white} wire:

tf your cooktop has a 3-wire cable to be connected to a 3-wire grounded junction box (see figure 4):

1. Disconnect the power supply.

2. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box: connect appliance and power supply cable wires as shown in figure 4.
