Electrical Requirements
CAUTION:,.,~..s....
SAFETY,
REMOVE HOUSE F USE ORCIRCUIT
BREAKER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and
frequency, as listed with Step 9, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a
circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Proper electrical ratings
should be verified with listing on product's rating plate.
Wiring must conform to the requirements of the National
Electrical Code. If the electric supply provided does not meet
the above specifications, call a licensed electrician.
WARNING:
Any home ventilation system, such as a cooktop with
a downdraft exhaust mechanism, may interfere with
the proper flow of exhaust products or combustion
air required by gas furnaces, gas water heaters,
fireplaces, or other naturally vented systems. To
minimize the chance of interference with such
naturally vented systems, follow the heating equip
ment manufacturer's guidelines, and local codes.
Also follow the guidelines in ASHRAE Standard 62-
1989. "Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air
Quality," section 5.8. When following these guide-
lines, be sure
to
test for proper airflow direction into
the draft hood of a naturally vented gas furnace or
water heater. This can be checked by striking a match,
blowing it out, and while it is still smoking, holding
it
near the draft hood relief opening. If smoke is drawn
into the opening, vent flow is in the proper direction.
If the ASHILAE Standard 62 guidelines are not
satisfied, a positive supply of outside air may have to
be supplied.
