Use and Care Manual

Getting Started

Grounding Instructions

• This cooktop features a pilotless electric

ignition for energy savings and reliability. It

operates on a 120 volt, 60 Hz power supply.

A separate circuit, protected by a 15 amp time

delay fuse or circuit breaker, is required.

For personal safety, the cooktop must be

properly grounded. A properly-grounded 3-

prong receptacle (see Figure 1) should be

located 12” below the countertop and within

reach of the cooktop’s four-foot power cord.

For maximum safety, the power cord must be

plugged into an electrical outlet that is correctly

polarized and properly grounded.

• See the Installation Instructions packaged with this cooktop for complete installation and

grounding instructions.

• DO NOT operate the cooktop using a 2-prong adapter or an extension cord. If a 2-prong wall

receptacle is the only available outlet, it is the personal responsibility of the consumer to have it

replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

• This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard

and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. To avoid fire hazard or electrical

shock, DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug and DO NOT use an adapter plug,

an extension cord, or remove grounding prong from electrical power cord. Failure to follow this

warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.

• Severe shock, or damage to the cooktop may occur if the cooktop is not installed by a qualified

installer or electrician.
