WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• Do not remove the grounding prong.
• Do not use an adapter or an extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged power plug, power cord, or loose power outlet.
• Do not modify the power plug, power cord, or power outlet in any way.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
• Use a dedicated 120-volt, 60-Hz, 20-amp, AC, fused electrical circuit for this
cooktop. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Do not plug more
than one appliance into this circuit.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water
pipes.
• This cooktop must be Earth grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path
for the electric current. This cooktop is equipped with a cord having a grounding
plug. The plug must be rmly plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the local codes and ordinances. If you are unsure
whether your electrical outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a licensed
electrician.
• The cooktop is supplied with a 3-pronged grounded plug. This cord must be
plugged into a matching, grounded 3-prong outlet that meets all local codes and
ordinances. If codes permit the use of a separate ground wire, we recommend
that a qualied electrician determine the proper path for this ground wire.
• Electrical service to the cooktop must conform to local codes. Barring local codes,
it should meet the latest ANSI/NFPA No. 70 – Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the
Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions.
• It is the personal responsibility of the cooktop owner to provide the correct
electrical service for this cooktop.
Gas safety
