Owner's Manual
For CookTek Single Hobs, Double Hobs, and Woks

PREPARING YOUR COOKTOP

CAUTION: Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Before operating your cooktop, do the following:
• Remove all packing material and save for subsequent shipment or in case of concealed shipping damage.
• Place the unit on a dry, level, hard, stable, and non-flammable surface.
• Keep unit away from other heat sources. See "Spacing Requirements" on page 3 of this manual for detailed
spacing and clearance information for all cooktop units.
Grounding Instructions:
The cooktop must be properly grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing a safe path for the electric current. The cooktop has a power cord with a 3-prong
grounding plug, which must be used in a compatible and properly grounded outlet. It is the owner's
responsibility to replace any 2-prong wall outlet with a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle. For your
safety, never cut, remove, or disable the electrical (ground) connection from the plug. Never use an adapter
plug or an extension cord with the cooktop.
WARNING: Electric shock can result from an improperly grounded plug. Please consult a qualified electrician if
you have any questions about these grounding instructions.
Before you Begin:
Some units may come equipped with a removable IEC power cord. Please make sure that this power cord is
firmly attached to your CookTek unit BEFORE plugging the unit into the power receptacle and before
attempting operation.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Every installation site has different electrical wiring. Because many different local codes exist, it is the
Owner and Installer's responsibility to comply with those codes. CookTek is not responsible for any
consequential damages as a result of failure to comply with installation requirements.
• Read all installation instructions carefully before starting installation.
• Remove cooktop carefully from carton.
• Remove all loose packaging and accessories and save for subsequent shipment or in case of
concealed shipping damage.
• It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with all federal, state and local codes.
• Any installation not matching the specifications discussed in this manual automatically voids the
product's warranty.
• CookTek recommends that a dedicated electrical line be used for each cooktop installed.
Electrical circuits should not be shared with any other electrical equipment.
