Important safety instructions
For your safety
• For Personal Safety, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning
installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
• Be sure your cooktop is installed properly by a qualified installer or service technician.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire due to reaching over heated surface elements,
cabinet storage located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage
space is necessary, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5” beyond the bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet installation
above the cooktop may be no deeper than 13”.
• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings around the cooktop can withstand the
temperatures (up to 194 °F) generated by the cooktop.
• The cooktop should be easy to reach and illuminated by natural light during the day.
• Always disconnect the electrical service to the cooktop before repairing or servicing
the cooktop. This can be done by disconnecting the fuse or circuit breaker. Failure to
do this could result in a dangerous or fatal shock. Know where your main disconnect
switch is located. If you do not know, have your electrician show you.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to
an individual, properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a 40A circuit breaker or a
time delay circuit breaker as noted on name plate.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your cooktop connected by
a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you where your main
cooktop disconnect is located.
The cooktop conduit wiring is approved for copper wire connection only, and if you have
aluminum house wiring, you must use special UL approved connectors for joining copper
to aluminum.
WARNING
If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or electrical shock may
result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING
Before beginning the installation, switch the power off at the service panel and lock the
service disconnecting switch to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When
the service disconnecting switch cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning
device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
WARNING
This appliance must be properly grounded.
