Installation
Preparing the counter
Create the counter cut-out as shown
in the cooktop diagram and in the de-
tailed drawing. Remember to main-
tain a minimum safety distance (see
"Safety clearances").
Seal any wooden counter surfaces
with a special varnish, silicone rub-
ber, or resin to help prevent swelling
from moisture. The sealant must be
temperature resistant.
Ensure that the sealant does not get
on the top surface of the countertop.
The sealing tape guarantees a non-
slipping seat of the cooktop in the cut-
out. The gap between the frame and
counter reduces with time.
Installing the cooktop
Feed the appliance power cord down
through the counter cut-out.
Center the cooktop in the cut-out.
Make sure that the seal under the
cooktop sits flush with the counter on
all sides. This is important to ensure
an effective seal.
NEVER seal the cooktop using addi-
tional sealing material such as sili-
con!
If during installation the seal around
the frame does not sit flush with the
countertop in the corners, the corner
radius, maximum 3/16" (4 mm), can be
carefully filed down to fit.
Connect the cooktop to the electrical
power supply.
Check that the cooktop works.
