Electric Safety
WARNING
Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on power
supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF position.
If required by the National Electrical Code (or Canadian
Electrical Code), this appliance must be installed on a
separate branch circuit.
The circuit breaker should have a contact separation of
at least 3 mm on all poles.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE
Frame grounded to neutral through a ground strap.
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.
For installations where grounding through the neutral
conductor is prohibited,
a. disconnect the link from the neutral,
b. use grounding terminal or lead to ground unit,
e. connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral
in usual manner (when the appliance is to be
connected by means of a cord kit, use a UL listed 4-
conductor cord for this purpose).
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician. Installation, electrical
connections and grounding must comply with all
applicable codes.
Before installing, turn power OFF at the service panel.
Lock service panel to prevent power from being turned
ON accidentally.
Installer - show the owner the location of the circuit
breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
Related Equipment Safety
The appliance is only guaranteed safe to use if installed
by a specialist in accordance with these installation
instructions. The installer is liable for any damage
resulting from incorrect installation.
Never modify or alter the construction of the appliance.
For example, do not remove leveling legs, panels, wire
covers or anti-tip brackets/screws.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by
installing a hood that projects horizontally a minimum of
5 inches (127 mm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
Verify that cabinets above the cooktop are a maximum of
13" (330 mm) deep.
Under the stovetop, no refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens
without ventilation or washing machines must be
installed.
Note: We strongly recommend the installation of a
ventilation system with this appliance.
