IMPORTANT NOTE: For electrical installation, attach the

conductors to the residence wiring in accordance with National Electrical Codes and all state, provincial, munici- pal and local codes. This appliance must be installed in accordance with National Electrical Codes, as well as all state, municipal and local codes. The correct voltage, frequency and amperage must be supplied to the appliance from a dedi- cated, grounded circuit which is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse. The proper voltage, frequency and power ratings are listed on the product rating plate, located on the underside of the cooktop. Refer to the illustrations on page 3 for location of the rating plate. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when electrical power is applied. Do not ground appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be utilized. If aluminum house supply wiring is utilized, splice the appliance copper wire to the aluminum house wiring using special connectors design and agency certified for joining copper and aluminum. Follow the connector manufacturer's recommended procedure carefully. Improper connection can result in a fire hazard.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Installation of the induction or electric

cooktop must meet location requirements shown in the installation illustration for your specific model on the following pages. All dimensions listed are minimum requirements for safe operation. Wolf induction and electric cooktops are intended for indoor use. For ease of installation, Wolf recommends using 33" (838) wide cabinets with 30" (762) cooktops and 39" (991) cabinets with 36" (914) cooktops. They are designed to fit a standard 24" (610) deep base cabinet with a 25" (635) deep countertop. Before making the countertop cut-out, verify that the cooktop will clear the side walls of the base cabinet. A minimum height clearance of 61/4" (159) is required from the top of the countertop to any combustible surface directly below the cooktop. For induction cooktops, if a shelf is installed below the unit, a 1" (25) gap at the rear of the shelf is necessary to allow for proper ventilation. Clearance is required for the conduit located at the right rear of induction and electric cooktops. Refer to the illus- tration below for dimensions. Failure to locate the cooktop without proper clearances will result in a fire hazard. It is recommended that you use a Wolf cooktop ventilation hood, pro hood or hood liner with induction and electric cooktops. Framed cooktops can accommodate a Wolf downdraft ventilation system. Refer to the Wolf design guide. 11/4" (32) 2" (51) 2" (51) Conduit dimensions.

Multiple Cooktop Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE: Unframed induction and electric cooktops are not designed to be installed in combination with other cooktops. If the framed induction or electric cooktop is to be used with any combination of additional cooktops or modules with a filler strip, the dimensions provided in the chart below are derived by adding 11/4" (32) additional space for each additional unit, to give you the total countertop cut- out width. Dimensions include the filler strip. IMPORTANT NOTE: For models CT15I/S and CT15E/S, the cut-out width should be increased from 133/8" (340) to 14" (356) when installed with multiple cooktops. When multiple cooktops are installed side by side, each unit must have its own separate recommended electrical circuit. When two or more modules are installed together, an integrated module filler strip is recommended. If a 30" (762) downdraft ventilation system is also installed, an inte- grated module support for downdraft ventilation is also required. The filler strip and other accessories are available through your authorized Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.

In either installation the countertop cut-out dimensions are the same. If the cooktop is to be mounted flush with the countertop, a recessed area surrounding the countertop cut-out must be provided. Refer to the installation illustrations on pages 12–13. IMPORTANT NOTE: An installation kit and additional instructions required for a flush mount installation are provided with the unframed cooktop. The template provided with the unframed cooktop is for reference only. Use the actual cooktop for marking the cut-out. Flush mount installations are intended for granite, solid surface or stone countertop surfaces only. Contact with hot cookware may cause damage to countertop surfaces that are not resistant to high heat.

FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION—OPTION 2

For this flush mount installation, the countertop cut-out will be the same size as the outer edge of the glass- ceramic top. It is recommended that unframed cooktop itself be used as the template for the cut-out. Turn the cooktop over and mark the opening using the glass- ceramic top as a template. It will be necessary to attach L-shaped cleats to the inner perimeter of the countertop cut-out to support the unframed cooktop. The top edge of the cleat can be no wider than 7/8" (22) and will be attached 5/16" (8) below the surface of the countertop. Refer to the illustration below. Attach the cleats wherever enough countertop material is present. For additional support in the cut-out area, adhere scrap countertop material to the bottom side of the countertop. Consult your countertop supplier for the proper methods of attachment. Cooktop Installation 15 wolfappliance.com/specs Unframed Installations FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION—OPTION 1 For this flush mount installation, a recessed area surrounding the standard countertop cut-out is required. Fabrication of the recessed area must take place before the final countertop installation. A template of the counter- top cut-out is provided with the unframed cooktop for fabrication purposes. IMPORTANT NOTE: This option is not recommended for molded backsplash style countertops. In order to rout the required recessed area for this flush mount installation, a second template must be made from 1/2" (13) plywood. The template will be used as a guide for a top-bearing router bit. Make the wood template wide enough so that clamps used to hold the template to the countertop do not inter- fere with the router base. The cut-out dimension of the wood template should match the outer perimeter of the template supplied with the cooktop. Center the wood template over the existing cut-out in the countertop and clamp. Use double-sided tape to adhere the template to the countertop to keep the template from shifting during routing. Make sure that the adhesive can be easily removed by testing it on a scrap piece of the countertop. Using a top-bearing router bit with the wood template as a guide, rout out a 5/16" (8) deep recessed area in the countertop cut-out. 7/8" (22) 5/16" (8) L-SHAPED CLEATS Support cleats.

Install the Cooktop

Attach the foam strip to the underside of the cooktop frame. Refer to the illustration. For unframed cooktops, be sure to adhere the foam strip to the outer edge of the glass-ceramic top, not the support frame. Gently lower the cooktop into the cut-out area in the countertop and center. Check that the front edge of the cooktop is parallel to the front edge of the countertop. Check that all required clearances are met. Attach the brackets to the bottom of the cooktop, as shown in the illustration. Install clamping screws into the brackets and tighten until the screws contact the under- side of the countertop. Do not overtighten screws. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not seal the cooktop to the coun- tertop. It must be removed if service is necessary. FOAM STRIP COOKTOP FRAME Foam strip. Installation brackets.

Verify Cooktop Operation

Before operating the induction or electric cooktop, be sure to read the entire use & care guide included with the cooktop for important safety, operating and warranty information. Clean the glass-ceramic surface as recommended in the induction or electric cooktops use & care guide. The cooktop surface must be free of any foreign substances, especially those that could melt and permanently adhere to the glass-ceramic. Turn on the electrical supply to the cooktop. Check opera- tion of the controls and verify that each of the elements is coming up to temperature. IMPORTANT NOTE: A small amount of smoke and odor may be noticed during the initial break-in period. Do not operate the cooktop if the glass-ceramic surface is broken. Contact Wolf factory certified service. Cooktop Removal IMPORTANT NOTE: Cooktop removal should only be done by Wolf factory certified service. If it is necessary to remove the cooktop for cleaning or service, disconnect the electrical supply. Remove the mounting brackets and remove the cooktop. Reinstall in the reverse order. For flush mount installations, use a razor blade to carefully cut around the perimeter seal. A new RTV installation kit will be required to reinstall the cooktop. This kit and other accessories are available through your authorized Wolf dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
