IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1

Use only dry pot holders.
Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders
touch the elements on the appliance. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.
Do not cook on broken cooktop.
If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and
create a risk of electric shock. Contact an authorized service center or KENYON Customer Care
immediately at [phone].
Clean cooktop with caution.
Do not clean the cooktop while it is still hot. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
cooking surface, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to
a hot surface. Read the cleaner label for details prior to using.
Use proper pan size.
This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select cookware
having at bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. Proper relationship of
cookware to burner size will also improve efciency.
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilover may cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.
Glazed cooking utensils
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for range-top service without breaking due to sudden change in temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units.
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of ammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and
does not extend over adjacent surface units.
Never heat an empty pan.
It may damage the cooktop or cookware and overheat the unit.
Do not use aluminum foil on the surface of the cooktop.
Cookware should always be dry.
Do not heat cookware with excess water droplets on the outside of the pan. The droplets may begin
to boil and splatter.
Do not touch surface units or areas near units.
Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other ammable
materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufcient time to cool. Among
these areas are the heating elements and surrounding glass surface.
DO NOT DISCARD THESE INSTRUCTIONS, KEEP THEM
WITH THE KENYON COOKTOP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

STEP #2
Check the Electrical Supply Requirements
This product must be installed in accordance with ABYC standard A-3, “Recommended Practices
and Standards Covering Galley Stoves,” and/or the “Fire Protection Standards for Motorcraft”
NFPA #302. The following table provides the correct voltage, amperage and frequency that must
be supplied to the cooktop.
The supply must be from an individual grounded circuit that is protected by a circuit breaker and
rated per the specications for the various models as shown in the table above.
WARNING: If the electric power supply does not meet the product
specications, consult with a marine technician before proceeding
with installation.
!
STEP #3
Countertop Preparation
Please read this section prior to making cutout for cooktop.
It is important to plan ahead for installation of the cooktop, keeping the following dimensions in
mind. The cooktop must be located in an area with adequate ventilation for occupants’ safety and
efcient cooktop operation. It should be installed with adequate clearances between the
cooktop and all surrounding surfaces (i.e. curtains, cabinets, etc) in order to minimize heat
transfer to these surfaces. Also re resistant materials should be attached to any surrounding
surfaces, especially overhead.
Once a location for the cooktop has been chosen, it is important to check clearances underneath
the counter for the bottom portion of the stove and its moving parts. The stove extends about 6
inches (152 mm) below the countertop. If drawers or cabinets are located under the cooktop, a
rigid barrier must be installed to prevent combustible items, (i.e. rags, paper, etc.) from coming in
contact with the hot cooktop. The barrier must be ventilated.
Adequate ventilation of the space below the stove must be provided to ensure proper operation of
the stove. Heat transferred from the cooktop bottom pan during operation will overheat an
improperly ventilated area. 5

STEP #4
Installing the Cooktop
Once the cutout has been prepared as shown on page 3, pre-t the stove into the cutout to mark
drill locations. Tilt and insert the front portion of the stove rst. Care should be exercised so as
not to damage or bend any moving parts. Next, lower the stove into the cut out. Using a pencil
mark the location of mounting holes onto the counter. Carefully remove the stove from the
cutout. Using a 1/8” drill and the pencil marks as a guide, drill four (4) mounting holes. Replace
the stove into the counter. Mount the stove in place by using (4) #8 x 5/8” oval head stainless
steel wood screws (not supplied).
STEP #5
Electrical Connection
It is recommended that the supply conductors be protected with a double pole simultaneous trip
circuit breaker per the specications for the various models and voltages as shown in the
Electrical Requirements Table on page 5. Use SO rubber-insulated cable to connect the boat
shore power electrical circuit to the terminal board behind the stove.
NOTE: ONLY QUALIFIED INSTALLERS SHOULD CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO THE
ELECTRICAL SERVICE.
Remove the back cover on the stove; push the cable through 7/8” (22 mm) hole below the
terminal board, using the black plastic grommet to protect the supply cable. Connect the
ungrounded current carrying conductor to terminal marked L1. Connect the other ungrounded
current carrying conductor for 240V units or neutral carrying conductor for 120V units to the
terminal marked L2. Connect the ground wire (green) to the left terminal marked G. A cable
clamp is provided to secure cable. Replace the back cover after all connections have been
made.
STEP #6
Final Preparations Prior to Use
Remove any protective or packaging material from the cooktop. Clean the cooktop before you
use it for the rst time.

ALCOHOL OPERATION
READ SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE
The cooking surface and control areas of your Alcohol Electric cooktop are identied by
coil burner(s) in the cooktop. The appliance is easy to maintain and easy to clean.
Keeping the cooktop in top performance can be achieved by following the simple guidelines for
use and cleaning below:
ALCOHOL BURNER
Before attempting to operate the stove, please read the theory and operating instructions
carefully and become thoroughly familiar with the various parts of the stove and how they
operate. An internal parts diagram has been provided below to illustrate burner functions and
characteristics under normal operating conditions.
Theory
This patented burner system incorporates an internal tank in the burner assembly that does not
require any external pressurization. This burner system uses ethyl alcohol. The “center
chimney” contains a ber wick, which is lit to start the burner. The ame from the wick,
vaporizing and pressurizing the alcohol inside rapidly heats a separate surrounding chamber,
within the burner. A ring of holes (burner jets) in the top of this vaporization chamber allows the
escape of the alcohol vapor which is ignited by the central ame. The central ame then
diminishes and the burner functions in the normal manner.
ALCOHOL OPERATING COMPONENTS
A Fill Cap is located on each burner with a rubber washer (gasket) underneath each ll cap. Be
sure the washer is in place and the ll cap is reasonably tight when operating the stove. If either
are lost or damaged replace at once. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE BURNER
WITHOUT A CAP OR WITH ANY NON COMPATIBLE REPLACEMENT. The alcohol burner
control wheel(s) are located in the front ange of the stove. The purpose of the control wheel is
to regulate the burner ame. With the control wheel positioned to the extreme right, the ame
control cap (snuffer) will completely cover the burner ports (jets). With the control wheel
positioned to the extreme left, the burner ports will be completely exposed. Other variations of
the control wheel position will allow for ame adjustment between maximum and minimum heat
output.
8
WARNING: OPEN FLAME COOKING APPLIANCES CONSUME
OXYGEN AND PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE.
TO AVOID ASPHYXIATION OR INJURY OR DEATH FROM EXPOSURE
TO CARBON MONOXIDE, MAINTAIN OPEN VENTILATION WHEN
USING THIS APPLIANCE.

ALCOHOL BURNER FUELING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The burners are designed exclusively for denatured ethyl alcohol which is readily available
as “alcohol stove fuel” at marine stores. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ANY OTHER FUEL AS
FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT. A denatured ethyl alcohol re is readily
extinguished by water, or by smothering it with a non-combustible material.
2. Before attempting to fuel the stove, be sure that the burners are not in operation and that
all ame and other sources of ignition in the galley area are extinguished. Make sure the
stove is cool before fueling.
3. The alcohol control wheel(s) located in the front of the appliance must be in the off
position (rotate completely to the right) which places the ame control cap completely over
the burner ports. The air deector assembly is equipped with an interlock. If the control
cap is not over the burner ports, the deector can not be removed to access the ll cap.
4. Carefully rotate electric element assembly up and remove the air deector assembly to
access the ll cap. If the electric element was operated recently, DO NOT PROCEED
UNTIL THE ELEMENT HAS COOLED. Failure to do so could result in severe burns or
injury.
5. Be aware that an alcohol ame is invisible in sunlight. If the stove has been operated
recently, be particularly careful to make sure that all burner ames are extinguished and
the burner is cool. DO NOT PROCEED UNTIL FLAMES ARE EXTINGUISHED AND THE
BURNER HAS COOLED.
6. Remove the ll cap and ll the burner(s) slowly with denatured ethyl alcohol, six (6)
ounces only. The burner fuel storage tank is designed to readily accept the proper amount
of fuel and discourage overlling. Do not attempt to ll with more fuel that can be readily
poured in. Six (6) ounces will be enough to moisten the primary wick and provide the ideal
conditions for proper function of the alcohol burner. More than six ounces may cause the
chimney to ood. A ooded chimney will cool the surrounding chamber and the burner will
not operate as intended. (Refer to Theory of Operation)
With this stove, a six ounce ll bottle is supplied. Using the supplied ll bottle each time
will prevent overlling since the ll bottle’s volume is the same size as burner’s storage
tank.
7. Replace the ll cap, making sure the rubber washer (gasket) is in place and that the ll cap
is securely tightened.
8. Wipe any alcohol spills and replace the air deector assembly into the pan and return the
electric element back into place. Note that the electric element serves as a grate when
using the alcohol burner to cook.

ALCOHOL BURNER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Completely open the ame control cap by rotating the control wheel to the left.
2. Ignite the small ber wick located in the center chimney. A match may be used or a
Bar-B-Que grill-igniting wand is ideal. Do not leave matches in the center chimney, they
will inhibit the efciency of the burner.
3. Allow for approximately two minutes to ve minutes for ames to appear in the burner jets
(see Theory of operation on page 8). Cooking may be initiated immediately after ignition of
the center chimney. This will not effect the preheating of the main burner and automatic
switch over to normal full operation.

CLOSING THE GLASS LID
If your Kenyon Custom Cooktop is equipped with a glass lid, care should be followed when
lowering the lid onto the stove. NEVER CLOSE THE LID ON AN OPEN FLAME OR AN
ELECTRIC ELEMENT THAT IS HOT OR TURNED “ON”. Make sure that the appliance is cool
before lowering the glass lid onto the frame.
When the lid is in an open position, the “lid-stay” arm that is attached to the glass “locks” onto
the large lock screw. In order to lower the glass lid onto the stove frame, the “lid-stay” must be
unlocked from the mounting screw. DO NOT TRY TO LOWER THE LID WITH THE “LID-STAY”
IN THE LOCK POSITION. FAILURE TO UNLOCK THE “LID-STAY” WHEN ATTEMPTING TO
LOWER THE GLASS LID CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE WHICH IS NOT
COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
