KitchenAid 30-Inch 4 Element Induction Cooktop, Architect® Series II Guía De Instalación

IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood 
combination above the range, follow the range hood or 
microwave hood combination installation instructions for 
dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.

NOTES: After you make the countertop cutout, some 
installations may require notching down the base cabinet side 
walls to clear the cooktop base. To avoid this modification, use a 
base cabinet with sidewalls wider than the cutout.

If cabinet has a drawer, a 5

¹⁄₈" (13 cm) depth clearance from the 

countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base 
cabinet is required.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is 
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that 
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local 
codes.

Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the 
cooktop is properly grounded.

It is not recommended to have a fuse in the neutral or ground 
circuit.

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:

National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02169-7471

CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575

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, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only 
electrical supply is required on a separate, 50-amp circuit 
(36" [91.4 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 
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. The length of conduit provided is for 
serviceability of the cooktop.

■

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.
