GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

The bare ground wire in the conduit is connected to the cooktop frame. Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code will not permit grounding through neutral. If used in new construction after January 1, 1996 or in a mobile home, recreational vehicle or if local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral white lead, attach the appliance grounding lead (green or copper) to the residence grounding conductor (green or bare copper) in accordance with local codes. When connecting to a 3 conductor branch circuit, if local codes permit, connect the bare ground connector lead of the cooktop to the branch circuit neutral (gray or white in color).

Manual backgroundIMPORTANT: If the cooktop is being installed into a blind counter (one with no cabinet opening below), wire connections must be made before putting the cooktop into the cutout opening.
