IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the
possibility of electric shock.
• Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids should not be placed on the
cooktop surface because they can get hot.
• After use, switch off the cooktop element by its control. Do not rely on the pan detector.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separated
remote-control system.
• Danger of fire: Do not store items on the cooking surfaces.
WARNING

a fire hazard.
• If the appliance is used intensively for a long time, the effectiveness of the ventilation will
have to be increased, for example by opening a window or increasing the power of the
range hood operating above.
• Flammable materials and liquids should not be stored on the appliance or near surface
units. This includes paper, plastic, and cloth items, as well as cookbooks, plastic ware,
and towels. Do not store explosives such as aerosol cans on or near the appliance.

• If the cooktop is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.
• The installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable standards
and regulations.
• A suitable means of disconnection providing full isolation from the electrical supply must
be incorporated into the permanent wiring and installed in accordance with applicable
local codes and regulations.
• The disconnecting means must be of an approved type and capable of disconnecting all
ungrounded (hot) conductors supplying the appliance.
• A means of disconnection from the electrical supply must remain readily accessible after
installation.

Pre-Installation Notes

INSTALLATION
CUTOUT DIMENSIONS
• IMPORTANT: Save for the local electrical inspectors' use.
• To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5" (127 mm) inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
• Cut out the work surface according to the sizes shown in the drawing.
• For the purpose of installation and use, a minimum of 2" (50 mm) space shall be
preserved around the hole.
• Be sure the thickness of the work surface is at least 1 3/16" (30 mm). Please select heat-
resistant work surface material to avoid larger deformation caused by the heat radiation
from the cooktop.
