GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
The bare ground wire in the conduit
is connected to the cooktop frame.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code will not permit grounding
through neutral. If used in new
construction after January 1, 1996 or in
a mobile home, recreational vehicle or if
local codes do not permit grounding
through the neutral white lead, attach
the appliance grounding lead (green or
copper) to the residence grounding
conductor (green or bare copper) in
accordance with local codes. When
connecting to a 3 conductor branch
circuit, if local codes permit, connect
the bare ground connector lead of the
cooktop to the branch circuit neutral
(gray or white in color).
IMPORTANT: If the cooktop is being
installed into a blind counter (one
with no cabinet opening below), wire
connections must be made before putting
the cooktop into the cutout opening
