Cooktop
A= 30² (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between the top of
the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected wood
or metal cabinet.

metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4²
(0.635 cm). FLAME RETARDANT millboard covered
with not less than no. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015²
(0.038 cm) stainless steel, 0.024² (0.061 cm)
aluminum or copper.
* To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is to be provided, t he risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

Installer Installation Suggestions
1. Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to
prevent damage from chipping.
2. Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth
edges and prevent corner cracking.
3. Rough edges, inside corners which have not been
rounded and forced fits can contribute to cracking of
the countertop laminate.
4. Countertop must be supported within 3² (7.62 cm) of
cutout.
CAUTION
Warranty is void on equipment installed other
than as recommended by manufacturer.
Electrical Wiring Information
The neutral of this unit is grounded to the frame through
the green grounding wire. If used on new branch-circuit
installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, recreational
vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor, untwist or
disconnect the green wire and connect the green wire to
ground in accordance with local code. Connect the white
neutral to the service neutral. Connect all wires to the
branch circuit with approved connectors. Use copper or
aluminum wire. If aluminum wire is used, use connectors
recognized for joining aluminum to copper.
Proper Electrical Supply
You must provide an adequate electrical supply system
as required for your cooktop. All wire connections must be
in accordance with local codes and properly insulated.
Check with local utility for governing electrical codes and
ordinances. In the absence of local electrical codes, the
National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, governing electric
range installations must be followed. A copy of the
National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, can be obtained
by writing to:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269
A three-wire, single phase, A.C. 120/240 volt 60 cycle
electrical system (properly circuit protected to meet Local
Codes of NFPA No. 70) must be provided. Unit must be
properly grounded in accordance with local wiring code.
The chart below recommends the minimum circuit
protector and wire size if the appliance is the only unit on
the circuit. If smaller sizes of wire are used, the unit
efficiency will be reduced and a fire hazard may be
created. It is advisable that the electrical wiring and
hookup be accomplished by a competent electrician.
