INSTALLING THE COOKTOP

8INSTALLING THE COOKTOP

CAUTION:

DO NOT LIFT

FROM

VENT OPENING.

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.

9CHECKING 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

If the cooktop is perfectly flat with the countertop surface, skip to Step 10.

If there is any rocking or an uneven gap, then use a 1⁄4″ nut driver to loosen the eighteen (18) sheet metal screws on the bottom panels of the cooktop while it is still in the countertop.

Loosen each bottom panel screw 1 or 2 turns. After all eighteen (18) screws are loosened, recheck the cooktop for flatness with the countertop surface.

Gently bump your hand along the outside edge of the cooktop if needed to help it settle evenly onto the countertop surface.

Retighten all eighteen (18) sheet metal screws.
