Installing Cabinetry Over Your
Jenn-Air Grill
A = 30" (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between the top of
the cooking platform and the bottom of an
unprotected wood or metal cabinet.
A = 24" (60.96 cm) minimum when bottom ofwoodor
metal cabinet is protected by not less than !/4"
(0.635 cm). FLAME RETARDANT millboard covered
with no less than no. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015"
(0.038 cm) stainless steel, 0.024" (0.061 cm)
aluminum or copper.
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 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

Installer Installation Suggestions
1. Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to
prevent damage from chipping.
2. Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth
edges and prevent corner cracking.
3. Rough edges, inside corners whichhave not been
rounded and forced fits can contribute to cracking of
the countertop laminate.
4. Countertop must be supportedwithin 3" (7.62 cm) of
cutout.
CAUTION
Warranty is void on Jenn-Air equipment
installed other than as recommended by
manufacturer. Recommended wall caps and
transitions must be utilized for proper
operation and installation.
Electrical Wiring Information
The neutralof thisunitisgroundedto the frame through
the green grounding wire. If used on new branch-circuit
installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, recreational
vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor, untwist or
disconnect the green wire and connect the green wire to
ground in accordance with local code. Connect the white
neutral to the service neutral. Connect all wires to the
branch circuit with approved connectors. Use copper or
aluminum wire. If aluminum wire is used, use connectors
recognized for joining aluminum to copper.
Proper Electrical Supply
You must provide an adequate electrical supply system
as required for your cooktop. All wire connections must be
in accordance with focal codes and properly insulated.
Check with local utility for governing electrical codes and
ordinances. In the absence of local electrical codes, the
National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, governing electric
cooktop installations must be followed. A copy of the
National Electricat Code, NFPA No. 70, can be obtained
by writing to;
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269
Athree-wire,single phase, A.C. 120/240 volt 60 cycle
electrical system (properly circuit protected to meet Local
Codes of NFPA No. 70) must be provided. Unit must be
properly grounded in accordance with local wiring code.
The chart below recommends the minimum circuit
protector and wire size if the appliance is the only unit on
the circuit. If smaller sizes of wire are used, the unit
efficiency will be reduced and a fire hazard may be
created, it is advisable that the electrical wiring and
hookup be accomplished by a competent electrician.

Preparing Unit For Assembly In Countertop
1, Unpack Unit.
2. Provide cutout for countertop and duct openings as
required per page 1.
3. Place unit in the cutout, and slide unit all the way to the
left hand side of cutout. (Figure 1).
4. HOLDING DOWN UNIT TO COUNTERTOP: Use the
hold down straps,provided in the hardware package, to
secure unit to the countertop. These straps may be
positioned on the left, front, and back sides of the unit.
(See figure 1A). To install, pre-thread the bolt into the
strap about 2 inches. With the unit positioned in the
cutout as desired, reach through the cabinet door
opening and push up along the wall of the burner box
flange. If it doesn't hook, pull strap down, move it left or
right about an inch and push up again. Once strap is
hooked, thread bolt into strap until it meets resistance
against bottom of countertop. Then tighten slowly until
unit top bottoms against countertop.
5. Connect outlet of blower housing to vent duct. Loosen
cap nuts inside plenum to rotate blower housing to
desired position.
6. Remove attachment screw and cover from junction
box. Connect BX Cable power supply to knockout in
side of box. Make wire connections, push wires into
box. Re-attach cover. Consult local codes for proper
power hookup. (Figure 2).
7. Test to insure electronic surface control operates all
elements properly.
