COOKTOP SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

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.

IMPORTANT: Installer: Leave installation instructions with the homeowner. Homeowner: Keep installation instructions for future reference.

Save installation instructions for local electrical inspector's use.

IMPORTANT : Installateur : Remettre les instructions d'installation au proprietaire,

Propri_taire : Conserver les instructions d'installation pour reference ulterieure.

Conserver les instructions d'installation pour consultation par I'inspecteur local des installations electriques.

Clearance Dimensions

Proper installation is your responsibility. Make sure you have everything needed for correct installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with the installation clearances specified in these instructions.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. When installing cooktop, use at least minimum dimensions given.

• To reduce the risk of burns or fire by reaching over 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 further by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.8 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

• The cooktop must be a specified cooktop that is approved to be installed within a countertop. Check the cooktop burner box for an approved installation label. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your cooktop is approved.

• Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are

minimum clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance.

• The cooktop should be installed away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors or fans and strong heating vents or fans. The cooktop should be located for convenient

use in the kitchen.

• The venting system for a downdraft cooktop must terminate outdoors.

• A downdraft cooktop is not approved for use in mobile homes.

• Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical Requirements" section.

Minimum clearance is 30" (76.2 cm) between bottom of unprotected wood or sheet metal and the top of your cooking platform.

If installing a hood above the cooktop, follow the hood instructions for dimensional clearances above the cooktop

surface.

Side clearance: 6" (15.2 cm) minimum clearance between side of cooktop and side wall is recommended for maximum ventilation

performance. Rear clearance: %" (19.1 mm) clearance between rear edge of

cooktop and rear wall is recommended. Motor/blower clearance: 2" (51 mm)minimum clearance between

motor and cabinet is required for proper cooling. A 6" (15.2 cm) clearance is recommended for servicing access.

Countertop edge preparation

For decorative laminate, chamfer all exposed edges to prevent chipping the laminate. To prevent laminate cracking, cut radius corners and smooth edges by filing.

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

WAR NING: To reduce the risk of fire, this cooktop MUST BE

EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS. Do not vent exhaust air into attics, crawl spaces or garages, or

into spaces within walls or ceilings. Do not use 4" (10 cm) laundry-type wall caps. NOTE: Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended.

Do net use plastic or metal foil vent. For an exception, see "Alternate installations with concrete slab" within "Plan vent

system."

runby20%.

For the most efficient and quietest operation:

• Use 26-gauge minimum galvanized or 25-gauge minimum aluminum metal vent. Poor quality pipe fittings can reduce airflow. Flexible metal vent is not recommended.

NOTE: Local codes may require a heavier gauge material.

• The length of vent and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

• The size of the vent should be uniform. Use the fewest number of 90° elbows possible.

Do not install 2 elbows together. Make sure there is a minimum of 18" (45.7 cm) straight vent

between the elbows if more that one elbow is used. (Elbows too close together cause excess turbulence that reduces

airflow.) Do not use 5" (12.7 cm) elbow in a6" (15.2 cm) or 31¼"x 10"

(8.3 x 25.4 cm) system. Do not reduce to 5" (12.7 cm) system after using 6" (15.2 cm)

or 31/4'' x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) fittings.

• Avoid forming handmade crimps. Handmade crimps may restrict airflow.

Use the recommended vent caps for proper performance. If an alternate wall or roof cap is used, be certain the cap size is

not reduced and that it has a backdraft damper. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the

cap.

Typical exhaust installation Typical installations vent the cooktop through the rear of a

cabinet. Other installations are possible.

Determine vent length

List the number of each piece and length of straight vent you will use. Multiply the equivalent length by the number of pieces. Add

the totals to get the total equivalent length of your system. NOTE: Maximum equivalent length is 60 ft (18.3 m).

as standard elbows.
