A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-ampere,
fused electrical supply is required. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Electronic ignition systems operate within
wide voltage limits, but proper grounding and
polarity are necessary. In addition to checking
that the outlet provides 120-volt power and is
correctly grounded, the outlet must be
checked by a qualified electrician to see if it is
wired with correct polarity.
The wiring diagram is located on the inside of
the terminal box cover.

grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must
be grounded. This appliance is equipped with
a power supply cord having a 3-prong
grounding plug. To minimize possible shock
hazard, the cord must be plugged into a
mating 3-prong grounding-type wall
receptacle, grounded in accordance with
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 —
latest edition* and all local codes and
ordinances. See Figure 1. If a mating wall
receptacle is not available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have a properly grounded, 3-prong wall
receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
