Installation
22
Before making the countertop cutout, check
for clearance. Check to see if the cooktop
will clear the front and side walls of the base
cabinet. It is also important to provide enough
ventilation.
Adequate ventilation of the space below the
countertop must be provided to ensure proper
operation of the cooktop. Heat transferred
from the cooktop bottom pan during operation
will overheat an improperly ventilated area.
Allow a 2” minimum clearance between the
bottom of the metal pan of the cooktop and
any combustible surface located below, ie:
the upper edge of a drawer installed below
the cooktop (
see figure below
). Failure to
provide proper clearances and ventilation may
result in a fire hazard.
Countertop Preparation
Continued...
Attach the two mounting brackets as shown
(
see figure below
) to the inside vertical
surface of the cutout. The brackets are to be
mounted on opposing sides. If your counter
material is granite you will need to glue two
wood strips underneath the counter to accept
the mounting brackets. Center the bracket in
the opening,
flush with the countertop
and
secure with #6 self-tapping screws that are
provided. Position the cooktop in the cutout
opening and press firmly on all sides to seal
the glass into the bedding compound.
Secure the cooktop to the brackets from
underneath with the small sheet metal
screws that are supplied.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO
OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREWS.

Installing the Cooktop
4
The cooktop is supplied with two metal
mounting brackets. These brackets are
designed to hold the cooktop firmly in place.
The cooktop does not have a metal frame and
should be sealed to the countertop.
Use a soft
bedding compound that will prevent
damage if later removal for service is
necessary. We recommend a nonadhesive
type of sealant, such as plumber’s putty,
maximum compressed thickness of 1/16”.
