Electrical wiring information
An adequate electrical supply must be provided for this unit. All wire connections and grounding must be
done in accordance with local electrical codes, or if these codes are not established, then with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 in the US , or with the Canadian Electrical Code, CAN/CSA C22.1, in
Canada.
This unit comes equipped with three connection wires in a flexible conduit. The conduit must be routed and
properly connected to an approved owner-supplied electrical wall junction box. An approved connector must
be used for connecting the conduit to the junction box. A three wire, 2pole, 240 V, 60 Hz service with
minimum 40 A circuit protector must be provided. The red and the black wire from the unit are to be
connected to the service (”hot”) wires, and the green wire is to be connected to the ground conductor.
The owner should mark the circuit protector for the unit and should advise everybody who uses or services
the cooktop on its location, so that the power to the unit can be disconnected when necessary.
Once the unit is properly fitted and connected to the electrical power supply, turn the unit on to ensure that
all elements and controls are operating well.
Note that your unit is designed for 240 V supply and the manufacturer, its distributors and dealers cannot be
held responsible for any unit malfunction due to an inadequate electrical supply (inadequate cable size, low
voltage etc). Furthermore, if your residence has only a 208 V supply system, and if the voltage frequently
fluctuates, your cooktop may not function properly
It is recommended that the connection to electrical supply be done by a qualified electrician.
If there is any visible physical damage on the conduit and the wires, the unit must not be connected to the
mains. A qualified electrician or approved service agent should be called in to replace the wires and the
conduit.
