STEP 2
PREWRING FOR INSTALLATION
When choosing a location, consider the
following:
. This cooktop is not approved for installation
over built-in ovens.
. The cooktop should be easy to reach and
lighted with natural light during the day.
●
Select a countertop capable of supporting
230 pounds.
. Avoid placing cabinets above cooktop unit, if
possible, in order to reduce the hazard caused
by reaching over heated surface unit.
●
If cabinetry is used above cooktop, allow a
minimum 30” clearance between the cooking
surface and the bottom of the unprotected
cabinet.
●
If clearance between cooktop and cabinetry is
less than 30”, cabinet bottom must be protected
with flame retardant
at least
1/4”
thick, covered with 28 gauge steel or 0.020”
thick copper. Clearance between cooktop and
protected cabinetry must NEVER BE LESS
THAN 24”.
●
The
hazard can be further reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally
a minimum of 5“ beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
●
Working areas adjacent to the cooktop should
have a 15” minimum clearance between
countertop and bottom of cabinet. If clearance is
less than 15”, adjacent cabinets should beat least
2“ from side edge of cooktop.
●
Be sure to position cooktop so that vent grille
will not be blocked.
STEP 3
PREHIRING THE COUNTERTOP
See
Figures 1 and 2 and Dimensions chart for
all rough-in and spacing dimensions. These
dimensions must be met for safe use of your
cooktop. To insure accuracy, it is best to make
a template when cutting the opening in the
counter.
Cut out opening as shown in Figure 2. Measure
carefully when cutting countertop, making sure
sides of opening are parallel and rear cut is
exactly perpendicular to sides.
STEP 4
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Note to
Electrician:
The power leads supplied with this appliance are
U.L. recognized for connection to larger gauge
household wiring. The insulation of these leads
is rated at temperatures much higher than the
temperature rating of household wiring. The
current carrying capacity of a conductor is
governed by the wire gauge and also the
temperature rating of the insulation around
the wire.
Aluminum Wiring:
WARNING: IMPROPER CONNECTION OF
ALUMINUM HOUSE WIRING TO THE
COPPER LEADS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS
PROBLEMS.
Attach copper wires to aluminum wiring using
special connectors designed and U.L. approved
for joining copper to aluminum. Follow the
manufacturer’s recommended procedure closely.
Install Junction Box:
IMPORTANT: FOR PERSONAL SAFETY,
REMOVE THE HOUSE FUSE OR OPEN
CIRCUIT
R BEFORE BEGINNING
INSTALLATION.
Install an approved junction box with 1/2”
conduit connector inside cabinet as shown below.
Run conductors from residence wiring to
junction box according to local, electrical codes.
Be sure this cut does not interfere
Suggested mounting of
an approved junction box.
