Installation Instructions

INSTALLING THE JUNCTION BOX

Install an approved junction box where it will be
easily reached through the front of the cabinet
where the cooktop will be located. The cooktop
conduit is 58

long.

IMPORTANT:

The junction box must be

located where it will allow considerable slack in the
conduit for serviceability.

INSTALLATION OVER GSM2100 DISHWASHER

The center of the junction box should be 5

″ to 7″

below the cooktop lip, so it does not interfere with
the dishwasher, installation or operation.

Electrical connections must be made before placing
the cooktop into the cutout.

cooktop (both sides). Do not tighten. Turn the
