Installation

Allow a 2” minimum clearance between the
bottom of the metal pan of the cooktop and
any combustible surface located below, ie:
the upper edge of a drawer installed below
the cooktop (see figure below). Failure to
provide proper clearances and ventilation may
result in a re hazard.
Countertop Preparation

Attach the two mounting brackets as shown
(see figure below) to the inside vertical
surface of the cutout. The brackets are to be
mounted on opposing sides. If your counter
material is granite you will need to glue two
wood strips underneath the counter to accept
the mounting brackets. Center the bracket in
the opening, ush with the countertop and
secure with #6 self-tapping screws that are
provided. Position the cooktop in the cutout
opening and press rmly on all sides to seal
the glass into the bedding compound.
Secure the cooktop to the brackets from
underneath with the small sheet metal
screws that are supplied.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO
OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREWS.

Installing the Cooktop

The cooktop is supplied with two metal
mounting brackets. These brackets are
designed to hold the cooktop rmly in place.
The cooktop does not have a metal frame and
should be sealed to the countertop. Use a soft
bedding compound that will prevent
damage if later removal for service is
necessary. We recommend a nonadhesive
type of sealant, such as plumber’s putty,
maximum compressed thickness of 1/16”.

Since the appliance requires a sufcient
supply of fresh air to operate at maximum
performance, the cabinet must be designed
accordingly. The following is required for this:
• The cabinet must have a minimum of two
openings; one to allow fresh air to enter
and the other for hot air to escape the
cabinet.
• Opening sizes must be equal to 8
square inches each. This is for ambient
temperatures of 85ºF / 30ºC and below.
If the ambient temperature around the
appliance is above 85ºF / 30ºC then larger
ventilation opening sizes may be required.
