Electrical Shock Hazard Electrically ground cooktop.

Failure to follow this instruction could result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

If codes permit and a separate grounding wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the grounding path is adequate.

Do Not ground to a gas pipe.

Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the cooktop is properly grounded.

Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

IMPORTANT:

Save Installation Instructions for electrical inspector’s use.

A n A three-wire, single-phase,

240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only electrical supply is required on a separate, 40-ampere circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. The rating of the fuse or circuit breaker should be equal to the marked current rating (amps) on the appliance, but not larger than the nex-t standard fuse or circuit breaker size. The marked current rating is specified on the model/serial rating plate located on the bottom of the cooktop.

B n THECOOKTOP MUSTBE CONNECTED WITH COPPER WIRE ONLY

C l Wire sizes and connections must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSVNFPA 70 - latest edition**, or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91 - latest edition*** and all local codes and ordinances.

Dn The cooktop should be connected directly to the fused disconnect or circuit breaker box through flexible, armored or non- metallic sheathed, copper cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box.

En Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible between junction box and the cooktop so that the cooktop can be moved if servicing is ever necessary. Do Not cut the conduit.

Fn A U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction box).

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power to the junction box before making connection.

Electrically ground cooktop.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

This cooktop must be connected to a grounded, metallic permanent wiring system or a grounding connector should be connected to the grounding terminal or wire lead on the cooktop.

This cooktop is manufactured with a frame-connected, green or bare grounding wire.

Connect the cooktop cable to the junction box through the U.L.-listed or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector. Complete electrical connection according to local codes and ordinances.

A n Where local codes permit connecting the frame-grounding conductor to the neutral (white) junction box wire: (Not used for Canadian installations).
