Installation Preparation

INSTALLATION BELOW A COUNTERTOP

*NOTE: When installing the warming drawer below a cooktop, a solid barrier
must be installed at least 1” from the lowest point of the bottom of cooktop
burner box to the top of cutout. Use any solid material such as 1/4” thick
plywood. Allow at least 1/4” air gap between the barrier and the top of the
warming drawer. See label on top of the warming drawer for approved
cooktop models.

Installation below a cabinet drawer:

The warming drawer may be installed beneath a cabinet

drawer. In this installation, a solid barrier should be installed

above the warming drawer to block access. Use any solid

material such as 1/4” thick plywood. Allow at least 1/4”

air gap between the barrier and the top of the warming

drawer. Observe the 5” min. above the floor or 1” above the

toekick minimum installation height.
NOTE: If you are installing in frameless cabinets, it may

be necessary to install 1/2” wide cleats to accept drawer

mounting screws. See drawer to find exact locations of

mounting screws.

Side to Side Installation:

Install two warming drawers in separate cutouts.

Allow 2” min. between cutouts.
