Whirlpool JIC4536XB Induction Cooktop 36 Inches Black

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL JIC4536XB is a 36-inch black induction cooktop designed for residential kitchen installation. Induction cooking uses electromagnetic energy to heat cookware directly, providing fast, precise temperature control without an open flame or radiant surface element. This unit features a black finish and is built for drop-in installation in standard kitchen countertop cutouts. Licensed kitchen and appliance installers, as well as qualified electricians handling the dedicated circuit work, are the typical trades involved in setup.

The JIC4536XB is sized for wider kitchen configurations that require a 36-inch cooktop footprint. Its black surface suits both residential remodels and new construction applications where a flush, built-in induction cooktop is specified. This model is appropriate for kitchens where gas is unavailable or where induction is the preferred cooking technology.

Key Features

• 36-inch wide induction cooktop with black surface finish
• Electromagnetic induction heating for fast, responsive temperature control
• Drop-in installation design for standard countertop cutouts
• Low-profile depth of 3.375 inches below the countertop surface
• Smooth cooktop surface simplifies cleaning between uses

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style drop-in replacement or new installation induction cooktop for 36-inch residential countertop cutout configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance installer or licensed electrician, as induction cooktops require a dedicated 240-volt circuit sized per NEC requirements. Power must be shut off at the breaker panel before beginning any wiring work. Verify the countertop cutout dimensions against the manufacturer specifications before installation. Induction cooktops require magnetic-compatible cookware — confirm cookware compatibility before commissioning the unit.
