power at the main circuit breaker or fuse box
before installing.
r_ EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL listed ]-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord and that the
current carrying rating of the cord in amperes be
equivalent to or greater than the branch circuit
rating. Such extension cords are obtainable
through your local appliance dealer.

PERSONAL SAFETY,THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED.
[Z] ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AND OUTLET
An adequate electrical supply and outlet must
be used to operate the electrical parts of your
cooktop.

B]
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which must
be used with a properly grounded 3-hole
outlet with a standard 120 Volt, 60 cycle AC
household current.
If you do not have a 3-hole grounded outlet,
have a qualified electrician change your old
one.
[]
A grounding adaptor will be needed to convert
the old one until the outlet can be replaced.
This method is only temporary, and a qualified
electrician should test it to be sure it meets
requirements.

r_ TWO-PRONG WALL RECEPTACLE
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with
a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove
grounding prong from the cooktop cord. Failure
to provide proper polarization may create a
hazardous condition.
