Note to the installer:
Please leave this instruction book
with the consumer for the local
electrical inspector’s use.
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.
The cabinetry and venting hood
should be installed first to prevent
damage to the appliance.
~
The countertop must be bonded
with heat resistant (212°F/100°C)
adhesive to prevent distortion or
dissolving.
Any back splashes must be
heat-resistant as well.
~
The appliance must not be installed
over a dishwasher, washer, dryer,
refrigerator or freezer. Heat radiated by
the appliance may damage them.
~
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire
by reaching over heated surfaces
cabinet storage space above the
appliance should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is necessary, the risk can be
reduced by installing a venting hood to
project horizontally a minimum of 5"
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
~
This appliance must not be used in
a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
~
You must ensure the power cord for
the appliance will not be subject to any
mechanical strain after installation.
~
If a protective base is installed
beneath the appliance, a minimum
distance of 1
9
/
16
" (40 mm) between the
top of the protective base and the
bottom of the appliance must be
maintained.
~
The appliance must not be
permanently sealed into the countertop
when installed. The sealing strip under
the edge of the appliance provides a
sufficient seal for the countertop. See
"Sealing".
Keep this instruction book in a safe
place for reference and pass it on to
any future user.
