Installing the Cooktop
If the home electrical service does not meet the Electrical
Specifications (Pg. 5), postpone the installation until a licensed
electrician has installed the required wiring.
IMPORTANT
• Before installing the cooktop, verify that all minimum clearances
are met as specified on Pgs. 7 – 9.
• Do not use hardening compound, glue, or caulk to seal the cooktop
in place. The cooktop must be easily removable for service. Removal
of improper sealant to service the unit will be charged to the owner.
1. Peel the backing from the foam tape provided, and
attach the tape to the bottom of the cooktop mounting
surface (as near the edge of the glass as possible).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
2. Keeping the cooktop centered, lower it into the cutout.
3. With the two hold-down brackets provided, secure the
cooktop to the countertop.
4. Slide the brackets into the slots on the left and right sides of
the chassis, then snug (do not overtighten) the screws to the
underside of the countertop.
Connecting the Cooktop Wiring
• To prevent electric shock, fire hazard, or appliance damage, turn
off power at the circuit-breaker or fuse box before connecting the
cooktop wiring.
• Connect the cooktop's ground (green) wire to a grounded, metallic,
permanent wiring system or grounding conductor. Do NOT ground
the cooktop to a neutral (white) house-supply wire. You must use a
separate ground wire.
• The cooktop must be properly grounded per these instructions
whenever power is applied.
• For aluminum house-supply wiring, splice the cooktop copper wires
to the aluminum house wiring with special connectors designed
and agency-certified for joining copper and aluminum. Follow the
connector manufacturer's recommended procedure carefully to
avoid creating a fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
Leave enough slack in the conduit so the cooktop can be removed for
service without disconnecting the conduit.
1. At the circuit breaker or fuse box, turn off power to the circuit
to which the cooktop will be connected.
2. Feed the appliance conduit into the junction box, and attach it
using a UL-certified strain relief.
3. Following local codes, use one of the methods on the next
page to connect the appliance to the junction box.
