INSTALLATION
• The electrical parts should always be
protected after the installation.
• The appliance should be connected
using a multipolar circuit breaker.
• If the appliance is not fitted with an
accessible plug, disconnecting means
must be incorporated in the fixed
installation, in accordance with the
installation regulations.
• The inlet hose must be positioned so
that it does not touch any of the hot
parts of the cooktop or oven.
This cooktop does not require a neutral
connection. If the cooktop is to be
completely enclosed in a cabinet, feed the
cooktop cable through the opening in the
cabinet. Make the electrical connection
following the appropriate steps for
your installation. Your cooktop must be
connected to the proper electrical voltage
and frequency as specified in the table on
the right.
Connect with copper wire only
If house has aluminum wiring, follow the
procedure below:
1. Connect the aluminum wiring to
the copper wire by using special
connectors designed and Underwriters
Laboratories-listed for joining
copper to aluminum. Follow the
electrical connector manufacturer's
recommended procedure.
2. Aluminum/copper connection must
conform with local codes and industry-
accepted wiring practices.
The flexible conduit (supplied) min. 4
feet long (120 cm) located at the right
rear of the cooktop bottom box should
be connected directly to junction box. Do
not cut the conduit. A U.L - or CSA - listed
conduit connector must be provided at
each end of the power supply cable (at
the cooktop and at the junction box.)
A time delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. Do not ground to a gas
pipe. Do not have a fuse in the grounding

A three-wire, single phase, 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.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified
technician or an authorized repair service.
