INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Cooktop for Installation
Write down the model and serial numbers before installing the
cooktop. Both numbers are located on the center underside of
the burner box.
Unpack the parts supplied with your cooktop. The parts shipped
with the cooktop depend on the model ordered. See the “Tools
and Parts” section for a complete list of parts supplied with the
cooktop.
Decide on the final location for the cooktop. Locate existing
wiring to avoid drilling into or severing wiring during installation.
1. 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.
Install Cooktop
NOTE: For multi-unit installations, a mounting bridge kit is
required. See the “Tools and Parts” section.
1. Install the cooktop into the countertop cutout by tilting one
end of the cooktop into the cutout, then lowering the other
end into the cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is
parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning
is needed, lift the entire cooktop up to avoid scratching the
countertop.

the cooktop burner box.
2. Attach the two hold-down brackets to the burner box.
3. Install the cooktop into the countertop cutout by tilting one
