Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
FORYOUR SAFETY
• For Personal Safety, remove house fuse or open
circuit breaker before beginning installation.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
• Be sure your cooktop is installed properly by a
qualified installer or service technician.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire due to
reaching over heated surface elements, cabinet
storage located above the surface units should
be avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum
of 5" beyond the bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet
installation above the cooktop may be no deeper
than 13".
• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings
around the cooktop can withstand the
temperatures (up to 200°F) generated by the
cooktop.
• The cooktop should be easy to reach and lighted
with natural light during the day.
• Always disconnect the electrical service to
the cooktop before repairing or servicing the
cooktop. This can be done by disconnecting the
fuse or circuit breaker. Failure to do this could
result in a dangerous or fatal shock. Know where
your main disconnect switch is located. If you do
not know, have your electrician show you.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
This appliance must be supplied with the proper
voltage and frequency, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded branch circuit,
protected by a circuit breaker or a time delay fuse
as noted on name plate.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and
hookup of your cooktop connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician
show you where your main cooktop disconnect is
located.
Wiring must conform to National Electrical Code.
You can get a copy of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition, by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
The cooktop conduit wiring is approved for copper
wire connection only, and if you have aluminum
house wiring, you must use special UL approved
connectors for joining copper to aluminum.
You must use a two-wire, three conductor 208/240
VAC, 60 Hertz electrical system. A white (neutral)
wire is not needed for this unit. The cooktop must
be installed in a circuit that does not exceed 125
VAC nominal to ground.
Refer to the name plate on your cooktop for the
KW rating for your cooktop.

Installing cooktop in combination with other
products. Both products must be installed
according to their specific product installation
instructions. Consideration must be given the
separate electrical requirements and locations:
Over one or two wall ovens:
•Only certain models may be installed over
wall ovens. The wall oven and cooktop will
both have a label stating which models are
approved in combination.
Over a Microwave:
•See microwave installation instructions
for how to install a microwave under a
cooktop. For vertical dimension of cooktop,
see Approximate Cooktop Dimensions
section.
In combination with telescopic downdraft vent:

•See warming drawer instructions for how to
install a warming drawer under a cooktop.
For vertical dimension of cooktop, see
Approximate Cooktop Dimensions section.
PREPARING THE OPENING
rT] The following MINIMUM clearance dimensions
must be maintained.
If a 30" clearance between the cooking surface and
overhead combustible materials or metal cabinets
cannot be maintained, a minimum clearance of 24"
is required and the underside of the cabinets above
the cooktop must be protected with not less than

INSTALLATION--ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS:
The bare ground wire in the conduit is connected
to the cooktop frame. Effective January 1, 1996,
the National Electrical Code will not permit
grounding through neutral.
if used in new construction after January 1, 1996
or in a mobile home, recreational vehicle or if
local codes do not permit grounding through
the neutral white lead, attach the appliance
grounding lead (green or copper) to the residence
grounding conductor (green or bare copper) in
accordance with local codes. When connecting to
a 3 conductor branch circuit, if local codes permit,
connect the bare ground connector lead of the
cooktop to the branch circuit neutral (gray or
white in color).
AIMPORTANT: If the cooktop is being
installed into a blind counter (one with no cabinet
opening below), wire connections must be made
before putting the cooktop into the cutout
opening.

NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN:
The power leads supplied with this appliance are
UL recognized for connections to larger gauge
household wiring. The insulation of these leads
is rated at temperatures much higher than
the temperature rating of household wiring.
The current carrying capacity of a conductor
is governed by the wire gauge and also the
temperature rating of the insulation around the
wire.
NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING
• WARNING:
IMPROPER CONNECTION OF ALUMINUM
HOUSE WIRING TO THE COPPER LEADS CAN
RESULT IN A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
• Splice copper wires to aluminum wiring
using special connectors designed and UL
approved for joining copper to aluminum
and follow the manufacturer's recommended
connector procedure closely.
NOTE: Wire used, location and enclosure of
splices, etc., must conform to good wiring
practice and local codes.

INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD IMPORTANTES
PARA SU SEGURIDAD
• Para su seguridad personal, retire los fusibles de
su hogar o bien desconecte cortacircuitos antes
de comenzar con la instalacion. El no hacerlo
puede resultar en lesiones serias o incluso la
muerte.
• Asegtlrese que su estufa sea instalada
correctamente por un instalador o tecnico de
servicio calificado.
• Para eliminar el riesgo de quemaduras
o incendio debido al contacto con los elementos
de superficie calentados, debe evitarse el
almacenaje en los gabinetes ubicados sobre
los elementos de superficie. Si se cuenta con
espacio en un gabinete, puede reducir el riesgo
instalando una campana que se proyecte
horizontalmente un minimo de 5" mas del rondo
de los gabinetes. La instalacion de gabinetes
sobre la estufa no debe exceder 13"
de profundidad.
• Asegtlrese que los gabinetes y las cubiertas
de las paredes alrededor de la estufa puedan
soportar las temperaturas generadas por la
estufa (basra 200 °F).
• La estufa debe ser facil de acceder y debera
contar con iluminacion natural durante el dia.
• Siempre desconecte el servicio electrico que va
hacia la estufa antes de reparar o dar servicio
a la estufa. Esto puede hacerse desconectando
el fusible o cortacircuitos. No hacer esto puede
resultar en un shock electrico peligroso o fatal.
Sepa en donde se Iocaliza el interruptor principal
de desconexion. Si no Io sabe, pidale a su
electricista que le muestre la ubicacion.
REQUISITOS ELI CTRICOS
Este aparato debe contar con el voltaje y
frecuencia adecuados, y debera conectarse
a un circuito derivado individual debidamente
descargado a tierra, protegido por un cortacircuitos
o un fusible temporizado como Io indica la placa.
Le recomendamos que un electricista calificado
conecte el cableado electrico y conexion de
su estufa. Despues de la instalacion, pidale al
electricista que le muestre en donde se Iocaliza el
interruptor principal de desconexion de su estufa.
El cableado debe cumplir con el Codigo Electrico
Nacional. Puede obtener una copia del Codigo
Electrico Nacional, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-01tima
edicion, escribiendo a:
Asociacion Nacional
para la Prevencion de Incendios
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
El cableado conductor de la estufa esta aprobado
para conexiones unicamente con cables de cobre,
y si cuenta con cableado de aluminio, debe usar
conectores especiales aprobados por UL para unir
cobre con aluminio.
Debe usar un sistema electrico con conductor de
dos cables y tres conductores 208/240 VCA, de
60 Hertz. No se requiere un cable blanco (neutral)
para esta unidad. La estufa debe instalarse en
un circuito que no exceda 125 VCA nominales de
descarga a tierra.
