cooktop may not be approved for use over an undercounter built-in oven.
Contact your dealer to confirm that your cooktop is approved.
●

on the top of the oven. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to
confirm that your oven is approved. Refer to oven manufacturer’s Installation
Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and proper cutout
dimensions.
●
The cooktop should be installed in a location away from strong draft areas,
such as windows, doors and strong heating vents or fans.
