Important Preparation Suggestions
- Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to prevent damage from chipping.
- Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth edges and prevent corner cracking. Recommend 1/4" or 3/8" diameter drill in each corner.
- Rough edges, inside corners which have not been rounded and forced fits can contribute to cracking of the countertop laminate.
This cooktop has been designed with wide tolerances of cut-out for when another brand is being replaced with a Hestan unit. For new installations, we recommend holding to the minimum cutout dimensions.
| Dim. | Inches | cm |
| • 30" | 28-15/16" x 19-9/16" | 73.5 x 49.7 |
| • 36" | 34-5/16" x 19-9/16" | 87.2 x 49.7 |
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].

CAUTION
- For solid surface material installations such as SurelTM 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.
NOTICE
THE CONDUIT IS 3 FEET LONG
The junction box must be located where it will allow sufficient slack in the conduit for serviceability.
WARNING
Disconnect power before servicing the product. Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.
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.

CAUTION
Improper connection of aluminum house wiring can result in a fire or shock hazard. Use only connectors designed and certified for connecting to aluminum wire, and installed by a qualified electrician.
NOTICE
This touch control works using optical light sensing technology. When first connecting electrically or after a power failure, any direct strong light over the sensor area may affect the touch control functionality. When powering on the unit make sure that no strong light is shining directly over the touch control zone, it can compromise the start-up sensor calibration resulting in an unresponsive touch control.
The flexible conduit (supplied) 3 feet long (100 cm) located at the right rear of the cooktop bottom box should be connected directly to 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.

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. Figures 13 and 14 and 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 (see figure 13).
-
If local codes permit, connect the green GROUND wire from the cooktop to the branch circuit neutral wire (gray or white colored wire).
-
Connect the red and black leads from the cooktop to the corresponding leads in the junction box.

4-Wire branch circuit
Refer to figure 14:
- Connect the green ground wire from the cooktop to the ground wire in the junction box (bare or green colored wire).
- Connect the red and black leads from the cooktop to the corresponding leads in the junction box.
- Terminate and insulate the neutral (gray or white colored wire) in the junction box.

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
When the cooktop is connected to the electrical voltage supply all lights and digits turn on to indicate a proper activation. This operation will be completed after few seconds, the control turns off automatically. Then the cooktop is ready for operations.
- Switch the Control ON
- If the commands are locked, touch the [LOCK] key for a few seconds. (See that the LOCK led is on and turns off after a few seconds.)
- Touch the main [ON/OFF] key to enable the single zones for selection.
- All the displays show power level "0". If you don't touch anything else, the control shuts down again after about 10 seconds.
- Select a zone and set power
- Touch the ON key (2) for the desired zone: the HOT SURFACE (3) indication starts flashing, waiting for user input.
- Touch the slide bar (7) to set the power level (levels 0 to 9). You can slide your finger along the bar to select the desired value.
- The display (4) and the "Peacock Tail" (6) shows the power level, updated in real time.
• After a 5 seconds time-out the value is accepted and the HOT SURFACE led stops flashing.
• The "Peacock Tail" disappears after some seconds more.
-
Verify that the indications perform as above and that the selected zone begins heating up.
-
Touch the OFF key for the selected zone to turn it off.
-
Touch the main [ON/OFF] key to turn the cooktop off.
Verify that the controls respond as above.
