Installation

The minimum distances given in
these Installation Instructions must
be observed in order to ensure safe
operation. Failure to do so increases
the risk of fire.

To prevent damage to the cooktop,
the cabinetry and venting hood
should be installed first.

Gas appliances should only be
installed in a well ventilated area.

The countertop must be bonded
with heat resistant (212 °F/100 °C)

adhesive to prevent distortion or
dissolving.

The cooktops should only be
installed as shown in the

illustrations, while maintaining the
required safety distances shown. Do
not install the cooktop between two tall
cabinets as this is a fire hazard.

a

= minimum distance between

cooktop and a tall cabinet:
6" (152 mm)

Deep fat fryers must not be
installed next to gas cooktops. Gas

flames can ignite splattering oil. A
distance of at least 6" (152 mm) should
be maintained between these two
appliances. The minimum distance
between two cooktops must be 4"
(10 cm).
