Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are 
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, 
ANSI/NFPA 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.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Before You Make the Electrical Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of 
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions 
provided for it here.
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only 
electrical supply is required on a separate, 40-amp circuit 
(45" [114.3 cm] models) or 40-amp circuit (30" [76.2 cm] 
models), fused on both sides of the line. 
The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box 
in the cabinet through the flexible metal conduit. The flexible, 
armored cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker 
box should be connected directly to the cooktop wiring box.
Locate the junction box in the cabinet 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.
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be 
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the 
cooktop wiring box and at the junction box in the cabinet). 
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
Decide on the final location for the cooktop.
1. Open product as instructed on product packaging.
2. Remove shipping materials and tape from cooktop.
3. Remove vent grille and grates if present.
4. Remove the removable grease filter by lifting the filter out.
5. Using 2 or more people, remove the cooktop from the carton.
6. Use foam end caps from the packaging as a work surface for 
the floor or countertop.
7. Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop on the foam end 
caps.
8. Avoid placing the cooktop face down on the control knobs.
9. Turn tie down bolt on each end of cooktop burner box bottom 
counter clockwise so the bolt does not protrude beyond the 
side wall of the buner box bottom.
10. For island or peninsula installations, go to the “Rotate Blower 
- Optional” section.
A. Vent grille (already removed)
B. Grates
C. Removable grease filter
D. Radiant element cartridge
