ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Check your local codes regarding this unit.  This cooktop is supplied with a 3-wire, A.C. 208/120 volt or 120/240 volt, 60
HZ electrical system.  A white (neutral) is not needed for this unit.   See next section for grounding instructions.  It should
be fused separately.  

CAUTION:

Be sure the electric power is off from the breaker box to the junction box until the

cooktop is installed and ready to operate.  The junction box should be connected to a suitable ground.  Do not use a
GFI circuit.

Refer to the sepcifications chart and the identification label on the bottom of the burner box for kilowatt rating and rec-
ommended amperage.  House wiring and fusing must comply with local codes.  If no local codes are applicable, wire in
accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING:  

The electrical power to the unit must be shut off while line connections are being made.  Failure to

do so could result in serious injury or death.

When making the wire connections, use the entire length of the conduit provided (3 feet).  The conduit must not be cut.
Connect the red and black leads from the unit conduit to the corresonding leads in the junction box.  The green ground
wire in the conduit is connected to the unit frame.  When connecting to a 3-conductor branch circuit, if local codes per-
mit, connect the green ground connector lead of the unit to the branch circuit neutral (gray or white in color).

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.  SUCH USE MAY
RESULT IN A FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR OTHER PERSONAL INJURY.
