Power Supply (B)
Power Supply is dual rated: 240 Volts or 208 Volts, 4
wire, 60 Hz, with the following circuit breaker
requirements: 40 Amps
Connect only to a 4-wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt A.C.
system. The neutral is required for the operation of this
appliance and an independent ground is required.
Install a junction box (not supplied), below the counter
top within 3 feet of flexible conduit (supplied) located at
the left rear corner of the cooktop rough-in box.
Cabinet Preparation and Clearances (C)
This unit is designed for installation in the counter top
with zero clearance to adjacent walls and projecting
surfaces constructed of combustible materials. A 30inch minimum clearance is required between the top of
the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet.
A 24-inch minimum distance is necessary when the
bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not
less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material covered
with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015-inch
(0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024-inch (0.6 mm)
aluminum, or 0.020-inch (0.5 mm) thick copper. Flame
retardant materials bear the mark:
UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC.
CLASSIFIED
MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS
SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS
Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings, these
designations are shown as “FHC (Flame Spread)/
(Smoke Developed).” Materials with “O” flame spread
ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow
other flame spread ratings.
CAUTION!CAUTION!
CAUTION!
CAUTION!CAUTION!
To eliminate 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 by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 in. (127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets. See C, Page 2.
The minimum horizontal clearance from the sides and
back edge of the cooktop to the adjacent vertical
combustible walls is zero inches.
Junction Box Location (D)
Plan the installation of the unit so that the location of
the junction box is within 3 feet of the left rear of the
cooktop bottom.

Installation Instructions Model: ET4955UC
Countertop Cutout Dimension (E)
The cutout dimensions depend upon whether the
installation is for replacement, new construction, or
installation in a solid surface countertop material, such
as Surel™, Corian
cutouts, use of heat reflective tape and rounded
corners. Drawings G and H provide some guidelines
only (see Page 4 and 5). Always consult the countertop
manufacturer for specific installation instructions.

attach brackets to the burner box using the washers
and screws.
Place cooktop into cutout. Insert clamping screws into
the brackets and secure cooktop to countertop.
Use a wood block to protect fragile countertop
materials.
Electrical Connection
1. Attach flexible conduit to the junction box.
2. Connect the cooktop lead wires to the junction box

Before Calling for Service
If the elements do not heat or if the indicator “on” light does not glow, check the power source to see if a fuse has
blown or if the circuit breaker has tripped.
Refer to the Cooktop Warranty in the Use and Care Manual.
See Use and Care manual for troubleshooting information.
Product data plate
The data plate shows the model and serial number of your cooktop. It is located in the center front area of the
rough-in box, underneath the cooktop.
Keep your invoice or escrow papers for warranty validation if service is needed.
