electrical inspector’s use.
Installation
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.
To prevent appliance damage, the
cabinetry and venting hood should
be installed first.
The countertop must be bonded
with heat resistant (212 °F/100 °C)
adhesive to prevent distortion.
The cooktops should only be
installed with the required safety
distances shown. Do not install the
cooktop between 2 tall cabinets as this
is a fire hazard.
