Installation instructions
Grounding
•
All cooktops must be grounded for personal safety.
•
The plug must be firmly plugged into a three-prong outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. In
the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will decrease the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path for the electric current.
•
Do not use a damaged power plug or loose wall outlet.
•
Do not use an extension cord or adapter with this appliance
•
Do not, under any circumstances, cut, modify, remove, or otherwise defeat the
grounding (third) prong from the power cord. If the plug and the outlet do not
match or you have any doubt, have a qualified electrician install the proper
outlet. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
•
NEVER connect ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or water pipes.
CAUTION
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
