Install Cooktop - Jenn-Air JEI0430ADS0 Installation Instructions Manual

NOTES: After making 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 51/s'' (13 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required.
If installing a hood above the cooktop, follow hood instructions for
dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Use 8 gauge copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
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,
ANSl/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-1atest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

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, 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.
• 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.

Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. Decide on the final location for the cooktop.
2. Using 2 or more people, place the cooktop upside down on a
covered work surface.
3. Remove the heat shield from the cooktop. Set the 2 screws
aside for reattaching the heat shield.
