WARNING

DANGER

Proper installation is your responsibility. Make
sure you have everything for correct installation.
It is the responsibility of the installer to comply
with the installation clearances specified in these
instructions.

Cooktop installed over oven installation: Only
certain specified cooktop and oven models are
approved for cooktop over oven installations.
Cooktops approved for this type of installation
will have an approval label located on the outside
of the burner box. If you do not find this label,
contact your dealer to confirm that cooktop is
approved. The label on the bottom of your
cooktop lists the cooktop and oven combinations
that are approved for this type of installation.

Ovens approved for this type of installation will
have an approval label located on top of oven. If
you do not find this label, contact dealer to
confirm that oven is approved. Refer to oven
manufacturer’s Installation Instructions for
approval for built-under use and proper cutout
dimensions.

When installing cooktop over a built-under
oven
, Do Not fasten cooktop to countertop with
clamps. Cooktop then will be easy to remove if
servicing is ever necessary.

Check location where cooktop will be installed.
The location should be away from strong draft
areas, such as windows, doors and strong
heating vents or fans. The cooktop should be
located for convenient use in the kitchen.

“Electrical requirements,” Panel B.

Important:
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Failure to meet governing codes and
ordinances could lead to fire or electrical
shock.

When installing a cooktop under existing
cabinets and the installation does not meet the
minimum cabinet clearances. Install a range
hood above the cooktop to avoid burn hazards.

Countertop opening dimensions that are
shown must be used. Given dimensions are
minimum clearances and provide required 0" 
(0 cm) clearance.

New installations — follow minimum
dimensions given.

(3.8 cm) back from front edge of countertop.
