INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Gather the required parts before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.

Parts Supplied

• Mounting clips (4)

• UL listed or CSA approved wire cable Parts Needed

• UL listed or CSA approved connector for 1/2"(1.3 cm) diameter conduit

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.

• 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.

Product Dimensions

A. 20" (51.0 cm) B. 24" (61.0 cm) C. 1½" (4.0 cm)

• 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.

Cabinet Dimensions

IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood

combination above the cooktop, follow the range hood or microwave hood combination installation instructions for

dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.

A. 23 ½" (60.0 cm) B. Combustible area above countertop (shown by dashed box

above)

C. 30" (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between top of cooktop

platform and bottom of uncovered wood or metal cabinet (24" [61.0 cm] minimum clearance if bottom of wood or metal cabinet is covered by not less than ¼" [0.6 cm] flame retardant millboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,

0.015" [..0.04cm] stainless steel, or 0.024" [0.06 cm] aluminum

or 0.020 [0.05 cm] copped D. 13" (33.0 cm) recommended upper cabinet depth E. 2" (5.1cm)

F. 19_" +/- He" (49.2 +/- 0.16 cm)

G. 18" (45.7 cm) minimum clearance from upper cabinet to

countertop within minimum horizontal clearances to cooktop H. Junction box or outlet: 7" (17.8 cm) minimum from top of

countertop

I. Junction box or outlet: 9" (23.0 cm) maximum from right side of

cabinet

J. 22" +/- He" (56.2 +/- 0.16 cm)

K. 4" (10.0 cm) minimum distance to nearest left side combustible

surface above cooktop

L. 2" (5.0 cm) minimum clearance between back wall and

countertop

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.

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 CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-1atest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

CSA International 178 Rexdale Boulevard

Toronto, Ontario Canada M9W 1R3

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.

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.

A. Model/serial number plate

• The cooktop is rated 240 volt. This cooktop does not have a neutral (white) wire.

• The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box.

• Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible between the junction box and the cooktop so that the cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in the

future.

• Do not cut the conduit. Use the length of conduit provided.

• A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector is already provided at the cooktop.

• If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:

1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail

leads.

2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of

copper wire using special connectors and/or tools

designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum. Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with

local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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.

2. Insert the mounting clips (provided) into the 4 pockets along the sides of the metallic frame under the glass top.

Cooktop Over Undercounter Built-In Oven

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.

Insert bottom of mounting clip into bottom of pocket

and push top over top of pocket to snap into place.
