STEP 5: Electrical Requirements, Connection & Grounding
•
Always disconnect appliance
electric supply cord from wall
receptacle before servicing this
appliance.
•
All cooktop models must be
plugged into a mating 3-Prong,
Grounding-Type Receptacle.
The receptacle must be con-
nected to a properly grounded
and polarized electrical power
supply rated at 120VAC, 15
Amps, Single Phase, 60HZ.
Maximum current rating of the
appliance is 7 Amps.
•
Improper polarization or
grounding of the 120VAC elec-
trical supply circuit will cause
malfunction (such as continu-
ous sparking of the burner ig-
niters), may damage this ap-
pliance, and could create a con-
dition of shock hazard at the
igniter of each burner. If the
circuit is not correctly
grounded and polarized, it is
the responsibility and obliga-
tion of the installer or user to
have the existing receptacle
changed to a properly
grounded and polarized recep-
tacle in accordance with all
applicable local codes and or-
dinances by a qualified electri-
cian. In the absence of local
codes and ordinances, the re-
ceptacle replacement shall be
in accordance with the Na-
tional Electric Code.
•
Observe all governing codes
and ordinances when ground-
ing. In the absence of these
codes or ordinances observe
National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA No. 70 Current Issue.
See Fig. 13 for recommended
grounding method.
•
An electrical wiring diagram and
schematic have been attached
to the bottom of the cooktop
chassis for access by a qualified
service technician. Do not re-
move or discard this important
information.
Grounding Method
The cooktop is factory equipped
with a power supply cord with a
three-prong grounding plug (with
polarized parallel blades). IT MUST
BE PLUGGED INTO A MATING,
GROUNDING TYPE RECEP-
TACLE THAT IS CONNECTED
TO A CORRECTLY POLARIZED
120 VOLT CIRCUIT. (See Fig. 11).
Improper grounding or polar-
ization will cause malfunction
(such as continuous sparking
of the burner igniters), may
damage this appliance, and
could create a condition of
shock hazard at the igniter of
each burner.
If the circuit does not have a
grounding type receptacle, it is the
responsibility and obligation of the
installer or user to have the existing
receptacle changed to a properly
grounded receptacle in accordance
with all applicable local codes and
ordinances by a qualified electrician.
In the absence of local codes and
ordinances, the receptacle
replacement shall be in accordance
with the National Electric Code.
THE THIRD GROUND
PRONG SHOULD NOT BE
CUT, UNDER ANY CIRCUM-
STANCES, OR REMOVED.
