Step 4
Preparing the Countertop
Clearance between inside front of cabinet and
rear of countertop cutout must be 2@A" in order
to accommodate cooktop depth.
Min.
A 1/2" wideflat area is required around the edge of
opening for support of the unit. The cooktop unit
must be level and sit squarely intocountertop
opening.
Carefully cut countertop opening according to the
dimensions shown in the illustration. Be sure that
opening is cut squarely, with sides parallel to each
other and rear exactly perpendicular to sides.

Preparing for Ductwork
NOTE: Ductwork MUST be vented to
outside. DO NOT vent into a wall, ceiling,
crawlspace, attic or any concealed space.
Cut hole in cabinet wall or floor as appropriate
for your installation. Make sure exhaust duct is
located between wall studs or floor joists.

Step5A
Attach the Blower Transition Duct
Use the blower transition duct that is packed with
your cooktop for all downward duct installations
(on other side)
to connect to 5" round standard ductwork.
Install the transition duct to the blower outlet
with four (4) sheet metal screws. Secure all
joints with duct tape to assure an airtight seal.
Step 5B
Blower to Ductwork Alignment
In general, the use of flexible ducting is
discouraged because it can cause severely
restricted airflow. However, if the blower outlet
and the floor or wall duct location do NOT align
well, then flexible METAL ducting can be used
to adapt to an offset. Good alignment without
use of flexible ducting is best.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum recommended
offset of 3".
• Do not allow the flexible ducting to kink or
collapse.
• Do stretch the flexible ducting as much
as possible to eliminate as much of the
corrugation as possible.
• Do rotate blower slightly to minimize offset
(see Step 6).
