■The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box.
■Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible between the junction box and the cooktop so that the cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in the future.
■Do not cut the conduit. Use the length of conduit provided.
■A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector is already provided at the cooktop.
■If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:
1.Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.
2.Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special connectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Cooktop for Installation
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Avoid drilling into or severing existing wiring during installation.
1.Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a covered surface using the foam end posts from the packaging. Make sure that the knobs are not resting on the foam.
2.Remove foam strip roll from the package containing literature. The roll contains four ¼" (0.64 cm) strips of foam. Remove one strip at a time and apply foam strip
NOTE: The foam strip helps avoid damage to the underside of the cooktop glass from debris and helps the cooktop sit flat on uneven counters.
