INDUCTION COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
An extension cord must not be used
with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire,
electrical shock, or other personal injury.
3. The appliance should be connected to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through
flexible armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable.
The flexible armored cable extending from this
appliance should be connected directly to the
grounded junction box. The junction box should be
located as shown in Figure 2 with as much slack
as possible remaining in the cable between the box
and the appliance, so it can be moved if servicing
is ever necessary.
4. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
Unpacking Instructions
1. Unpack and visually inspect the cooktop.
2. Be sure the bottle of cleaner conditioner packed
in the literature bag is left where the user can
find it easily. It is important that the ceramic-glass
cooktop be pretreated before use. See
Cooktop
Cleaning and Maintenance
section in the
Use
and Care Guide
.
Electrical Connection
Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from
the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable
strain relief at the point the armored cable enters the
