INSTALLING THE COOKTOP
INSTALLING THE COOKTOP
Lift the cooktop by the glass side edges as shown.
NOTE:
Do not use the glass top vent opening to lift
or move the cooktop into position.
Lower the cooktop into the countertop opening,
guiding it into position. Glass is fragile—do not allow
it to drop onto the countertop. Support from the
underside and lower slowly.
Carefully remove your fingers one corner at a time
to lower the cooktop into position.
NOTE: Do not use Silicone RTV or caulk to bond
cooktop glass to countertop.
CHECKING FOR FLATNESS
Inspect the cooktop glass for rocking or uneven
gap on all four sides at the countertop surface.
Do not attempt to force the glass to meet the
countertop.
Check for
uneven gaps
CAUTION:
DO NOT LIFT FROM
