INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE YOU START
Ensure the countertop is square and level and ensure no
US
structural members interfere with space requirements.
Ensure that there is a power supply receptacle (110-120V 60Hz)
within reach of the cooktop power cord (30" from the middle of
the product). The main cable should not touch any hot metal parts.
Make sure the cooktop is connected to a power supply socket
that is electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or
in the absence of local codes, with the National Electric Code
ANSI/FPA 70 or CSA 22.2 (Canada).
Make sure the countertop is made of a heat resistant material.
We recommend that the exposed bare wood edges of the
cutout be sealed with an oil based paint or moisture proof
polyurethane to prevent possible damage from moisture
creeping between the cooktop trim and the benchtop.
We recommend using easy-to-clean finishes for the wall
surfaces surrounding the cooktop to aid removal of any cooking
stains resulting from use of the cooktop.
