Safety; Electrical Requirements - GE Appliances JP3021 Manuel D'utilisation Et Instructions D'installation

FOR YOUR SAFETY
• F or Personal Safety, remove house fuse or open
circuit breaker before beginning installation.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
• B e sure your cooktop is installed properly by a
qualified installer or service technician.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire due to
reaching over heated surface elements, cabinet
storage located above the surface units should
be avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum
of 5" beyond the bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet
installation above the cooktop may be no deeper
than 13".
• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings around
the cooktop can withstand the temperatures (up to
200°F) generated by the cooktop.
• Always disconnect the electrical service to the
cooktop before repairing or servicing the cooktop.
This can be done by disconnecting the fuse or
circuit breaker. Failure to do this could result in a
dangerous or fatal shock. Know where your main
disconnect switch is located. If you do not know,
have your electrician show you.
