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.
