IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•Be sure your cooktop is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service technician.

•This cooktop must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition in the United States.

PROVIDING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Install the junction box under the cabinet and run 120/240 or 120/208 volt, AC wire from the main circuit panel.

NOTE: DO NOT connect the wire to the circuit panel at this time.

WARNING: The electrical power to the cooktop must be shut off while line connections are being made. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances.

A 3-wire or 4-wire single-phase 120/240 or 120/208 volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is required on a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). DO NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the appliance specified on the nameplate.

This unit can consume up to 7,400W at 240 VAC. A 40 Amp circuit breaker with wire gauge #8 AWG must be used.

NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition, and local codes and ordinances.

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 on page 22 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.

A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach the flexible armored cable to the junction box.

WARNING: An extension cord must not be used with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock, or other personal injury.
