_To eliminate the risk of burns
or fire by reaching over heated surfaces,
cabinet storag_ ._,u_ located above the

Important Notes to the InstaJJer
I. Readall instructions contained in these installation
instructions before installing the cooktop.
2. Remove all packing material before connecting the
electrical supply to the cooktop.
3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
4. Be sure to leavethese instructions with the consumer.
2. These units can consume up to 8600W at 240 Vac, a
circuit breaker of 40 Amp is recommended.
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.
Important Note to the Consumer
Keep these instructions with your Use and Care Guide for
future reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Be sure your cooktop is instaJJed and grounded
properJy by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• These cooktops must be eJectricaJJy grounded in
accordance with JocaJ codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70--latest edition in the United States, or with
CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part
1, in Canada.
_The electricaJ power to the cooktop
must be shut off whiJe Jine connections are being
made. Failure to do so could result in serious injury
or death.
Provide EJectrical Connection
Install the junction box under the cabinet and run 120/
240 or 120/208 Volt, AC wire from the main circuit
panel. DO NOT connect the wire to the circuit panel at
this time.
EJectrical Requirements
Observe aJJgoverning codes and JocaJordinances.
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.
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. The flexible
armored cable extending from this appliance should
be connected directly to the grounded junction box.
The junction box should be located as shown in
Figure 2 with as much slack as possible remaining in
the cable 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
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
Unpacking Instructions
Model and Serial Plate
Figure 3 (Under Cooktop)
.
Leave corner supports on cooktop until completion
of Electrical Connection.
2.
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.
EJectricaJ Connection
Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from
the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable
strain relief at the 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 junction box (see figure 5):
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 5.
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
This appliance is equipped with a
copper conductor fJexibJe cabJe. Jf connection is
made to aJuminum house wiring, use onJy speciaJ
connectors which are approved for joining cooper
and aJuminum wires in accordance with the
NationaJ EJectricaJ Code and JocaJ codes and
ordinances, improper connection of aluminum
house wiring to copper leads can resuJt in a short
circuit or fire. FoJJow 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 eJectricaJ power suppJy untiJ
appJiance is permanentJy grounded. Connect the
ground wire before turning on the power.
Where IocaJ codes permit connecting the appJiance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire:
if your cooktop has a 3-wire cable to be connected
to a 3-wire grounded junction box (see figure 4):
I. 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.

You may not ground the cooktop
through the neutral (white) wire if cooktop is used
in a new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC),
mobile home, recreational vehicle, or where local
codes do not permit grounding through the
neutral (white) wire. When grounding through the
neutraJ (white) wire is prohibited, you must use a
4-wire power supply cable. See Figure 6 & 7.
Failure to heed this warning may result in
