Owner's Manual
For CookTek Single Hobs, Double Hobs, and Woks
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES FOR ALL COOKTOPS AND WOKS
Please follow the listed guidelines below to ensure product reliability:
Spacing Requirements
• All units require a minimum clearance of two 2" (51 mm) between all sides of the housing and any
surface or obstacle.
IMPORTANT: If the unit is being placed near a grill or stove, a divider must exist between the unit and
the open heat source, with a minimum of 6" (153 mm) between the unit and the divider. If the unit is
placed near a fryer, a divider must exist between the unit and fryer, with a minimum of 12" (305
mm) between the unit and the divider.
• All drop-in units require a minimum clearance of open space below the unit of 6" (152 mm). The
space must have openings allowing for the flow of cool air (ambient temperature not to exceed
50˚C/122˚F) to the cooktop housing intake vents. If either the air intake or exhaust outlet is blocked,
the internal temperature will rise, causing an error code to occur (NOTE: The 6" (152 mm) can be
reduced if additional fans and ducting are added to provide forced ventilation).
• Do not install the unit near other equipment that generates excessive heat or grease that can be
pulled into the CookTek unit by its fan (i.e. griddles, fryers, etc.).
• Do not place the unit near items that generate excessive steam that can be pulled into the
CookTek unit by its fan (i.e. pasta cookers, steam baths, dishwashers, etc.).
Electrical Requirements
• Line voltage should never exceed 265VAC for 200-240VAC units and 132VAC for 100-120VAC units.
• Always provide a dedicated electrical circuit for the equipment.
• Never use an extension cord or power strip.
General Maintenance
• If your unit comes equipped with a grease filter on the bottom of the unit, please read the section on
cleaning and maintenance of the grease filter (page 5).
• All units should be checked for build up and debris around the intake and exhaust vents on the bot-
tom of the unit.
• If debris is found on the vents, you should unplug the unit and clean away the debris with a dry cloth
to ensure proper airflow is provided to the equipment.
Air Flow and Ambient Temperature
• Avoid ambient temperatures exceeding 50˚C/122˚F.
• Units dropped into the counter will require the following:
• Single units require a minimum 70CFM (2.0m3/min) of fresh air to the unit
• Double units require a minimum of 140CFM (4.0m3/min) of fresh air to the unit.
General
• Never leave an empty pan on the unit.
• Always turn the unit off when not in use.
