GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
The bare ground wire in the conduit is connected
to the cooktop frame. Effective January 1, 1996,
the National Electrical Code will not permit
grounding through neutral. If used in new
construction after January 1, 1996 or in a mobile
home, recreational vehicle or if local codes do not
permit grounding through the neutral white lead,
attach the appliance grounding lead (green or
copper) to the residence grounding conductor
(green or bare copper) in accordance with local
codes. When connecting to a 3 conductor branch
circuit, if local codes permit, connect the bare
ground connector lead of the cooktop to the
branch circuit neutral (gray or white in color).
IMPORTANT:
installed into a blind counter (one with no cabinet
opening below), wire connections must be made
before putting the cooktop into the cutout
opening.
