Installation—Electrical Connections

D1 Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL listed 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord and that the current carrying rating of the cord in amperes be equivalent to

or greater than the branch circuit rating. Such extension cords are obtainable through your local appliance dealer.

IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully) FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

Where a standard two-prong wall

D3 receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove grounding prong from the cooktop cord. Failure to provide proper polarization may create a hazardous condition.

D2

An adequate electrical supply and outlet must be used to operate the electrical parts of your cooktop.

a.The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which must be used with a properly grounded three-hole outlet with a standard 120 Volt, 60 cycle AC household current.

b.If you do not have a three-hole grounded outlet, have a qualified electrician change your old one.

c.A grounding adaptor will be needed to convert the old one until the outlet can be replaced. This method is only temporary, and a qualified electrician should test it to be sure it meets requirements.
