Installation guide

Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Use 8 gauge solid 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.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
• To be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards

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 4-wire, single phase 120/240-volt, 60Hz., AC-only electrical
supply is required (except for replacement in existing
installations) on a separate, 40-amp circuit, fused on both
sides of the line.
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 necessaw in the
future.
• Do not cut the conduit. Use the length of conduit provided.
A UL or CSA listed conduit connector must be provided at
each end of the power supply cable (at the cooktop and at
the junction box).
If the house has aluminum wiring, connect the aluminum
wiring to the copper wire by using special connectors
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.
To prevent floor damage, set the cooktop onto cardboard prior to
installation.
1. Remove the shipping materials and tape from the cooktop.
2. Remove the hardware package from inside the literature bag.
The cooktop may be installed with a panel trim kit or inside
custom cabinetry.
Install cooktop
1. Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Locate existing
wiring to prevent drilling into or severing wiring during
installation.
2. Place the cooktop upside down on a protective surface.
A. Burner box
B. Foam strip
3. Remove foam strip from literature package. Apply foam strip
around bottom of cooktop flush with edge. Turn cooktop right
side up.
4. Set the cooktop into the opening so that it is flush and
centered with the cabinetry facing.
