ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
All Cooktop models and the Wok require an electri-
cal circuit rated at 120 volts, 60 Hz., 10 Amps, ex-
cept models with electric griddle require 15 Amp cir-
cuits.
For personal safety, this appliance must be con-
nected to a properly grounded and polarized
electrical power supply.
Always disconnect the electrical plug from the wall
receptacle before servicing this unit.
See Installation Instructions for electrical
requirements and grounding instructions.
In Case of an Electrical Failure
If for any reason a gas control knob is turned ON and there is no electric power to operate the
electronic igniters on the cooktop burners, turn OFF the gas control knob and wait 5 min-
utes for the gas to dissipate before lighting the cooktop burner manually.
To light the cooktop burners and grill manually, carefully hold a lighted match to the burner ports
and turn the gas control knob to HI. During a power failure, you can manually light the standard
cooktop burners and grill only, but each must be lit with a match.
DO NOT attempt to light the two left burners manually. These burners are equipped with
the ExtraLow® feature and cannot be lit manually.
See Pages 11 and 29 for additional information on manually lighting the burners.
