FOR YOUR SAFETY

For Personal Safety remove the house fuse or open

the 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 by 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 so 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 fuse, having
amperage as noted on rating plate. (Rating Plate
is located on cooktop.)
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.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes
which apply in your area. Failure to wire your
cooktop according to governing codes could result in
a hazardous condition. If there are not local codes,
your cooktop must be wired and fused to meet the
requirements of CSA.
You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C. 208/120
Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system. If
you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed
connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring
must be used.
