Island Installation:
To provide an optimum installation, the
top surface of the countertop must be level
and flat (lie on the same plane) around the
3 sides that are adjacent to the range
cooktop. Proper adjustments to make the
top flat should be made or gaps between
the countertop and range cooktop may
occur. Forcing the cooktop to fit may cause
excessive gaps and could break the glass
and void the warranty.
To obtain kits, visit the GE Website or call
the GE Answer Center (800.432.2737), or
contact your dealer.
•
Move range indoors in front of cabinet
opening.
(Do not use hand trucks when moving the
unpackaged range. Cooktop glass may be
broken.)
•
Protect the kitchen floor!
Flatten and place
a piece of the shipping carton in front of the
installation location to protect the flooring.
