When installing a cooktop over a single oven, be sure to

installation manuals.
Never modify or alter the construction of the appliance.
The appliance should only be used if installed by a quali-
fied technician in accordance with these assembly instruc-
tions. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage
resulting from incorrect installation.

net.

Verify that cabinets above the cooktop are a maximum
