Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See the “Electrical Requirements” section.

LocationRequirements

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. When installing cooktop, use minimum dimensions given.

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over the heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

The cooktop must be a specified cooktop that is approved to be installed either alone or over an undercounter built-in oven. Check the cooktop base for an approved installation label. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your cooktop is approved.

The cooktop must be installed in a level countertop.

Ovens approved for this type of installation will have an approval label located on the top of the oven. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your oven is approved. Refer to oven manufacturer’s Installation Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and proper cutout dimensions.

The cooktop should be installed away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors, fans or strong heating vents. The cooktop should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.

Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are minimum clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance.

Grounded electrical supply is required. See “Electrical Requirements” section.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.
