INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Install L-Brackets
1. Measure and mark a line on each of the side cabinets at least
18
¹⁄₈
" (46.0 cm) above the surface of the cooktop. See
“Installation Dimensions” in the “Location Requirements”
section.
Make sure each line is level front to back, and that the lines
are level to each other.
2. Hold L-bracket against the side cabinet, with the bottom of
the horizontal arm aligning with the line drawn in Step 1, and
the vertical arm against the rear wall.
NOTES:
■
If installing into frameless or flush face-frame cabinetry (no
front face or protruding trim), position each bracket so that
the narrow arm is horizontal, and the wide arm is against
the rear wall.
■
If installing into face-frame cabinetry, position each
bracket so that the wide arm is horizontal, and the narrow
arm is against the rear wall.
3. Mark 3 holes through the horizontal arm onto the side cabinet,
then mark 2 holes through the vertical arm onto the side
cabinet, 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom.
4. Using 2 mm drill, drill holes marked in Step 3.
5. Secure L-brackets to side cabinets with ten 16 mm wood
screws, 5 in each L-bracket.
Prepare Upper Cabinet
1. Find the centerline of the installation space. Mark the
centerline on the bottom of the upper cabinet.
2. Measure and mark the power cord and vent holes, as shown,
making sure they are centered on the centerline.
3. Cut the power cord hole using the 1
¹⁄₂
" (3.8 cm) hole drill bit.
4. Cut 3/4" (19 mm) hole at one corner of the vent hole marking.
5. Using a keyhole saw, cut out the rectangular vent area.
