Installation
The minimum distances given in
these instructions must be observed
to ensure safe operation and to
reduce the risk of fire.
To prevent damage, install cabinetry
and the venting hood before
installing the cooktop.
The countertop must be bonded
with heat resistant (212 °F/100 °C)
adhesive to prevent distortion or
dissolving.
The cooktop should only be
installed as shown in the
illustrations, while maintaining the
required safety distances shown. Do
not install the cooktop between two tall
cabinets, this is a fire hazard.
a A minimum distance of 2"
(50 mm) from the cooktop to the rear
wall and a side wall or cabinet must
be maintained for safety.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire
by reaching over heated surfaces,
cabinet storage space above the
cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is necessary, the risk can be
reduced by installing a venting hood to
project horizontally a minimum of 5"
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
