Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

Replace all parts and panels before operating.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The hood must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269

CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road

Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575

■A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this hood be provided.

■Do not ground to a gas pipe.

■Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range hood is properly grounded.

■Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

■The range hood must be connected with copper wire only.

■The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored cable or flexible metallic conduit.

■Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition, or CSA Standard C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91, latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

■Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.

■Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

■We recommend the hood be installed 30"–36" (76.2 cm – 91.4 cm) above the countertop.

■Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.

WARNING

Use two or more people to move and install range. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1.If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to rear wall. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage or dirt.

2.Select a flat surface for assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective covering.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install range hood. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

3.Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto protective covering.

4.Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the canopy hood will be installed.

5.Select a mounting height between 30" and 36" (76.2 cm and 91.4 cm) above the range to the bottom of the hood and mark reference line on the wall.

NOTE: For installation locations with reduced ceilings heights, the vent hood may be installed using the lower vent cover for both vented and non-vented (recirculating) installations.

The Whirlpool IH7302RS0 is a state-of-the-art kitchen appliance designed to enhance convenience and efficiency in modern cooking. This induction cooktop features a sleek and stylish design, making it a perfect fit for any contemporary kitchen. One of the primary advantages of this model is its powerful and precise cooking capabilities. With multiple cooking zones, it allows users to prepare multiple dishes simultaneously without sacrificing quality.

A standout feature of the Whirlpool IH7302RS0 is its advanced induction technology. Induction cooking utilizes magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans, resulting in rapid temperature adjustments and reduced cook times. This technology not only provides a faster cooking experience but also ensures better energy efficiency, as heat is generated directly in the cookware instead of on the cooktop surface.

The cooktop offers various temperature settings and power levels, giving users control over their cooking processes. Its intuitive touch controls make it easy to adjust settings with a simple tap. Additionally, the model includes a timer function, so you can keep track of cooking times without needing to constantly monitor your dish.

Safety is a top priority with the Whirlpool IH7302RS0, which is equipped with child lock features to prevent accidental activation by young ones. The cooktop also contains an automatic shut-off function, which turns off the appliance after a set period of inactivity, providing peace of mind to users.

Another remarkable characteristic is the easy-to-clean ceramic glass surface, which not only looks elegant but also simplifies maintenance. Spills and splatters can be wiped away effortlessly, saving time and effort in cleanup after meals.

Moreover, the Whirlpool IH7302RS0 is designed with compatibility in mind, as it works with a variety of cookware materials including stainless steel and cast iron. This adaptability means that you can use your existing pots and pans without needing to invest in new equipment.

In summary, the Whirlpool IH7302RS0 stands out for its induction technology, user-friendly controls, safety features, and stylish appearance. It embodies the ideal blend of performance, convenience, and safety, making it an excellent choice for both novice cooks and experienced chefs alike.
