Electrical connection
IMPORTANT Please read carefully.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong grounding wall receptacle to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from the appliance.
The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed,
it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded
3-prong wall receptacle.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Disconnect electrical supply cord from
wall receptacle before servicing cooktop.

Cabinet Construction
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by
reaching over heated surface units, do not have cabinet
storage space above the range. If there is cabinet
storage space above range, reduce risk by installing a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5"
(12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
Countertop Preparation
• The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout
edge of your countertop.
• If you have a square finish (flat) countertop, no
countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay
directly on edge of countertop.
• Formed front-edged countertops must have molded
edge shaved flat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from each front corner
of opening (Figure 2).
• Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9
cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge
flattened (Figure 2).
• If the existing cutout width is greater than
30 1/16" (76,4 cm), reduce the ¾" (1.9 cm)
dimension.
• Countertop must be level. Place a level on the
countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If the
countertop is not level, the range will not be level.
The oven must be level for satisfactory baking results.
Cooktop sides of range fit over edges of countertop
opening.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
• Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils
before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess
spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the Use
and Care Guide.
• Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP
IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove the
cooktop.
