Remove the foam strip from the hardware package. Remove
the backing from the foam strip.
For countertop installations:
Apply the foam strip with the
adhesive side to the countertop within 1/16" (1.6 mm) of the
edge of the cutout, front, back, and sides.
For flush installations:
Apply the foam strip with the
adhesive side to the bottom of the cutout recessed area.
Save the excess foam strip for use with the mounting
bridge kit.
NOTE:
The foam strip helps keep the underside of the
cooktop frame free from debris and helps the cooktop
sit flat on uneven countertops. Do not silicone seal in place.
