Electrical Installation Requirements - Berghoff Tronic Series Manual

4. Preparing your induction cooktop for use
Before the operation of your new induction cooktop begins, you must first do the following:
1. Remove all packing materials.
2. The cooktop must be placed on a dry, level, stable and non-flammable surface.
3. The cooktop must be kept away from other heat sources allowing 2 inches on all sides (front,
rear and sides) for proper air circulation. If the air intake or exhaust outlet are blocked, the
internal temperature will rise resulting in an error code.
4A. Grounding
The induction cooktop must be properly grounded. This provides safety for you as the user,
reducing the risk of electrical shock should an electrical short occur. The cooktop has a grounding
plug which must only be used with a compatible outlet. It is the reponsibility of the owner of this
cooktop to check the wall receptacle. Never cut, remove or disable the electrical connection from
the plug. Also never use an extension cord or adapter with the induction cooktop.
Check your cooktop for a removable IEC Power Cord. Before operating your unit, make sure that
this power cord is firmly attached before plugging into the receptacle. Note: Not applicable for
all models.
4B. Electrical Installation Requirements:
Because every installation site is wired differently, and your local codes may vary, it is the owner's
responsibility to comply with those codes. BergHOFF is not responsible for any damages resulting
from failure to comply with proper installation.
