POWER SUPPLY B
ELECTRICAL POWER CONNECTION
FOR COOKTOP
Power Supply is dual rated: 240 Volts or 208 Volts, 4
wire, 60 Hz, with the following circuit breaker
requirements: Models CET304 or CEP304 at 30Amps;
Models CET365 or CEP365 at 40 Amps or Model
CEP456 at 50 Amps
Install a junction box (not supplied),below the counter
top within 3 feet of flexible conduit (supplied) located
at the right rear corner of the cooktop rough-in box.
IMPORTANT: Save these instructions for Local Electrical Inspector’s use.
INSTALLER: Please leave these Installation Instructions with this unit for the owner.
OWNER: Please retain these instructions for future reference.
READ AND SAVETHESE INSTRUCTIONS
JUNCTION BOX LOCATION D
Plan the installation of the unit so that the location of
the junction box is within 3 feet of the right rear of
the cooktop bottom. It must be accessible from
the front of the cabinet. (An exception to this
location would be for a cooktop installation over a
single electric oven In that situation, refer to Pages 4
and 5 and Figures I, J, K and L.

CABINET PREPARATION AND
CLEARANCES
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 in.(127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets. See C, Page 2.
This unit is designed for installation in the counter top
with zero clearance to adjacent walls and projecting
surfaces constructed of combustible materials.A 30-
inch minimum clearance is required between the top
of the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected
cabinet. A 24 inch minimum distance is necessary when
the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected
by not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,
0.015 inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024 inch
(0.6 mm) aluminum, or 0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick
copper. Flame retardant materials bear the mark:
UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC.
CLASSIFIED
MINERAL AND FIBER BOARDS
SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS
Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings.,these
designations are shown as “FHC (Flame Spread)/
(Smoke Developed)”. Materials with“O” flame spread
ratings are flame retardant.Local codes may allow other
flame spread ratings.
The minimum horizontal clearance from the sides and
back edge of the cooktop to the adjacent vertical
combustible walls is 0 Inches.
COUNTERTOP CUTOUT
DIMENSIONS
The cutout dimensions depend upon whether the
installation is for replacement, new construction, or
installation in a solid surface countertop material,such
as Surell™,Corian®etc.These materials require larger
cutouts, use of heat reflective tape and rounded
corners. Drawings Gand Hprovide some guidelines
only (see Page 4). Always consult the countertop
manufacturer for specific Installation Instructions.
INSTALLING THE COOKTOP
WARNING:
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE INSTAL-
LING. BEFORETURNING POWER “ON”, BE
SURE THAT ALL CONTROLS ARE IN “OFF”
POSITION.
SEAL WITH FOAMTAPE
A foam tape is provided to seal the cooktop edges to
the countertop, F, (see Page 4).Turn cooktop upside
down and apply tape approximately 1/16” from the
glass edges to the underside of the cooktop glass. Use
tape around the entire glass perimeter cut off excess
where tape ends butt.
SECURE COOKTOPTO
COUNTERTOP
The cooktop should be secured to the countertop
using the hold-down brackets provided. Prior to
inserting cooktop into cutout, turn cooktop upside
down and attach brackets to the burner box using the
washers and screws.
Place cooktop into cutout.Insert clamping screw into
the bracket and secure cooktop to countertop.
Use a wood block to protect fragile countertop
materials.

SOLID SURFACE COUNTERTOPS H
Always consult the countertop manufacturer
for specific instructions.
Countertops made from natural (i.e. granite and
marble) or SOLID SURFACE MATERIALS, such as
Surell™ and Corian®, require special cutout
preparation and installation procedures. Follow the
guidelines in preparing the cutout dimensions. Refer
to Pages 2 and 3.
Install the cooktop as follows:
1. Round the cutout corners according to
instructions from the countertop manufacturer.
2. Apply heat reflective tape (such as Scotch
Aluminum Foil Tape #425 or #427) around the
cutout so that it folds over the top and side
surfaces. Be sure the tape extends beyond the
outermost flange of the cooktop. All corners
should also be covered with tape.
3. Attach brackets to the burner box using washers
and screws provided. Use a wooden block
underneath the countertop before tightening the
bracket screws.
4. Center cooktop in the cutout to insure adequate
clearance between the burner box and countertop
edge.(A light pencil mark along the center of front
edge and side edge of cooktop and counter will
aid positioning of the cooktop in the center.)
5. Trim excess aluminum tape along the frame edges.
BE CAREFUL not to scratch the countertop.
Installation above an oven, S301, SC301,
C301, CM 301 (Optional) I , J , K ,and L .
The cooktop can be installed over a singleThermador®
electric oven.The cooktop should be located on the
same center line as the under-the-counter single oven.
If a single oven is installed under the cooktop,see Figure
Kfor the location of the junction boxes.
NOTE:Thermador single oven Models S301, SC301,
C301 and CM 301 installed under-the-counter with a
Thermador®electric cooktop over it is a UL approved
installation.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
1. Attach flexible conduit to the junction box.
2. Connect the cooktop lead wires to the junction
box supply wires in proper phase:
For CET AND CEP models, connect black
(L1) to black,red (L 2) to red, green wire to
ground,white neutral to white.White neu-
tral must be grounded at breaker box.
NOTE: If the cooktop is installed and connected as
specified above, it will be completely grounded in
compliance with the National Electrical Code.
3. Remove everything from the cooktop surface and
apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme (packaged with
cooktop), as directed in Care & Use Manual, Page
14.
4. Turn on power supply.
5. Test operation.
CAUTION:
Your cooktop surface needs to be cleaned daily.
Refer to the Care and Use section before using
it for the first time.
