CAUTION

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD

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

CUT HAZARD

Beware of sharp edges. Use the polystyrene ends when carrying the product. Failure to use caution could result in minor injury or cuts.

Always consult the countertop manufacturer for specific instructions.

• Ensure the countertop is square and level and ensure no structural members interfere with space requirements.
  • Prepare the cut-out according to the instructions (see cut-out dimensions).
• Make sure the wall coverings, countertop and cabinets around the cooktop can withstand heat (up to 200°F / 93°C).

NOTICE

• THE ELECTRICAL CONDUIT IS 3 FEET LONG.
- The junction box must be located where it will allow considerable slack in the conduit for serviceability.

NOTICE

• For solid surface material installations such as Surel™ and Corian®, consult with solid surface manufacturer. Apply heat reflective tape such as Scotch® Aluminum Foil Tape #425 or #427 around the cutout so that it folds over on the top and sides.
• Do not wrap the tape underneath the cooktop.
• Be sure the tape extends beyond the outermost flange of the cooktop. All corners should be covered with tape.

General information

NOTICE

The models may be powered at 240V or 208V.

This cooktop does not require a neutral connection. If the cooktop is to be completely enclosed in a cabinet, feed the cooktop cable through the opening in the cabinet. Make the electrical connection following the appropriate steps for your installation. Your cooktop must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified in the table on the right.

The flexible conduit (supplied) 3 feet long (100 cm) located at the right rear of the cooktop bottom box should be connected directly into a junction box. Do not cut the conduit. A U.L - or CSA - listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction box.) A time delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Do not ground to a gas pipe. Do not have a fuse in the grounding or neutral circuit. Fuse both supply (phase) lines.

NOTICE

Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to the copper leads can result in a serious problem such as an electrical fire.

A three-wire, single phase, 240 Volt 60 cycle electrical system (properly circuit protected to meet Local Codes of NFPA No.70) must be provided. Unit must be properly grounded in accordance with local wiring code. The chart below recommends the minimum circuit protector and wire size if the appliance is the only unit on the circuit. If smaller sizes of wire are used, the unit efficiency will be reduced and a fire hazard may be created. It is advisable that the electrical wiring and hookup be accomplished by a competent electrician.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician or an authorized repair service. This cooktop does not require a neutral connection. If the cooktop is to be completely enclosed in a cabinet, feed the cooktop cable through the opening in the cabinet. Make the electrical connection following the appropriate steps for your installation.

This appliance is manufactured with a green ground wire connected to the cooktop chassis. After making sure that the power has been turned off, connect the flexible conduit from the cooktop to the junction box using a U.L. listed conduit connector. The instructions provided below present the most common way of connecting the cooktops. Your local codes and ordinances, of course, take precedence over these instructions. Complete electrical connections according to local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

Risk of Electric Shock, frame grounded to neutral of appliance through a link.

Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and recreational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.

3-Wire branch circuit

Where local codes allow the connection of ground wire from the cooktop to the branch circuit neutral wire (gray or white colored wire) proceed as follows.

1. If local codes permit, connect the green GROUND wire from the cooktop to the branch circuit neutral wire (gray or white colored wire).
2. Connect the red and black leads from the cooktop to the corresponding leads in the junction box.

Cable from power supply Red Wires Junction box Twist-on connector White Wires Bare or green wires 3-Wire cable from cooktop U.L.-or CSA-listed conduit connector Black wires Where local codes permit connecting the frame-ground conductor to the neutral (white) junction box wire. (Not used for Canadian installations)

4--Wire branch circuit

1. Connect the green ground wire from the cooktop to the ground wire in the junction box (bare or green colored wire).
2. Connect the red and black leads from the cooktop to the corresponding leads in the junction box.
3. Terminate and insulate the neutral (gray or white colored wire) in the junction box.

Cable from power supply Red wires Junction box White wire Bare or green wires 3-Wire cable from cooktop Twist-on connector Black wires U.L. - or CSA-listed conduit connector

CLEANUP, VERIFY POWER

Remove any final packaging materials and protective film from all exterior areas.

Check the electrical requirements for the correct electrical supply and that the cooktop is properly grounded.

Check power at the junction box wires using a voltmeter having a range of 0-250 VAC.

• A 240 Volt supply should read 220 to 240 Volts between the black and red wires (Line to Line).
  • A 208 Volt supply should read 190 to 208 Volts between the black and red wires.

FUNCTIONAL TEST

1. Fill an induction-capable cooking utensil with 1/2 - 1" [1.2-2.5 cm] of water and place it on one of the cooking zones.

2. Switch the Control ON by touching the [ON OFF] key(1).

3. If the commands are locked, touch the lock key(2) for a few seconds. (See that the LOCK indicator (3) is on and turns off after a few seconds.) Then the controls should respond.

4. Touch the zone select key (6) for the cook zone where the utensil is.
5. Touch the power slider for that zone and set it to a level between 3 and 9.
6. Observe that the display responds to the power setting, and observe that the cooking utensil begins to heat up.
7. Touch the selector key (6) for that zone to turn it off.
8. Touch the [ON OFF] key to turn the cooktop off.
