INSTALLATION
Preparing the Installation Site
Both types of built-in installation require the same general
cabinet specifications. The unit is designed to allow easy
removal of the electronic components from the underside of the
unit without having to remove the installed ceramic glass top.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that the installation location allows
access to the underside of the unit for maintenance and
cleaning after it has been placed into the countertop. Other
specifications include:
• Make sure a grounded electrical receptacle of the correct
voltage, size, and plug configuration is within reach of the
unit’s 71
″
(1800 mm) power cord inside the cabinet. See
the SPECIFICATIONS section for details.
• Make sure a vertical surface for control panel installation is
available in the cabinet within reach of the 78 ″ (2000 mm)
control cable that connects the induction dry well to the
control panel.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 1-1/2
″
(38 mm) will be
available between the front and back of the unit and any
interior surface.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 2
″
(51 mm) will be
available between the bottom of the unit and any interior
surface.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 1″ (25 mm) will be
available between the sides of the unit and any interior
surface.

2. Cut and drill the appropriate holes in the vertical surface
where the control panel will be installed. Refer to the
“Installing the Control Panel” procedure for cutout
dimensions.
3. Cut the required openings in the cabinetry to provide proper
ventilation to the induction dry well. Refer to the “Ventilation
Requirements” listed previously in this section.

underneath the countertop to ensure the countertop will
support the weight of the unit and its contents.

of the Induction Well.
