APPLIANCE 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. The symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages will follow the Safety Alert Symbol and either the words DANGER or WARNING.
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • FOLLOW WARNING CALLOUTS BELOW ONLY WHEN APPLICABLE TO YOUR MODEL This appliance is only intended for residential cooking. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by improper use or for uses other than those for which this appliance is intended. Do not touch hot surfaces.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Before Using your Appliance • • • Remove the exterior packing. Check if there is any damage to the unit. Clean the unit. A thorough cleaning with a recommended cooktop cleaner will provide a clean, shiny coating on the cooktop surface. Installation of your Appliance Follow these directions to prepare the countertop cutout and install your cooktop: 1. Countertop Preparation NOTE: Please read this section prior to making the cutout for the cooktop.
Adequate ventilation of the space below the countertop must be provided to ensure proper operation of the cooktop. Heat transferred from the cooktop bottom pan during operation will overheat an improperly ventilated area. Allow a 2" minimum clearance between the metal bottom of the cooktop and any combustible surface located below, i.e.: the upper edge of a drawer installed below the cooktop. Failure to provide proper clearances and ventilation may result in a fire hazard.
2. Installing the Cooktop There are four mounting brackets supplied with the electric cooktop. These brackets are designed to hold the cooktop firmly in place. The cooktop should be bedded to the countertop using a soft bedding compound that will prevent damage if later removal for service is necessary. We recommend a very small bead of silicone sealant. Position the cooktop in the cutout opening and press firmly on all sides to seal the frame into the bedding compound.
1. 3-Wire Power Cord Installation IMPORTANT: Use the 3-wire cable from power supply where local codes permit connecting the frame-ground conductor to the neutral (white) junction box wire. 1. Disconnect the power. 2. Remove the junction box cover, if present. 3. Connect the flexible cable conduit (3) from the cooktop to the junction box (4) using a UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector (7). 4. Tighten the screws on conduit connector, if present. 5.
OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE Operating your Cooktop Any burner can be turned on by pushing the control knob down and turning it clockwise or counterclockwise to the desired setting. To adjust the setting while the burner is on, turn the knob without pressing down. The burner is turned off by turning the control knob clockwise or counter-clockwise to the "0FF” position. Operating Indicators When the burner is turned on, the corresponding operating indicator will light up regardless of the setting.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Cleaning your Appliance • • • • • • • • • • • • • Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Pressurized steam could cause permanent damage to the surface and to components for which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Do not use any sharp pointed objects which could damage the seal between the ceramic surface, the surrounding frame and the countertop.
• Replace the burners and reflector bowls as follows: 1. Line up the opening of the reflector bowl with the burner’s receptacle, hold the surface unit as level as possible with the terminal just positioned into the receptacle, then push the surface unit’s terminal into the receptacle. 2. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will go, push down the edge of the surface unit opposite the receptacle. NOTE: Do not immerse burners in water or any other liquids.
