Installation above a drawer

drawer is deep enough to clear the power base before cutting. If necessary, make
a cutout in the back of the drawer as shown so that it will clear the
P
ower
B
ase
when the drawer is opened.
Installation inside a drawer
The
P
ower
B
ase can also be installed inside a deep drawer so that the keypad
is flush with the top of the drawer as shown. Consult with your installer to make
sure that the drawer has the minimum necessary dimensions and airflow and that
a suitable insert can be placed into the top of the drawer to support the weight of
the
P
ower
B
ase. The drawer must extend at least 16” inches past the counter top.
CAUTION
Make sure that the power cord has space to move freely without snagging
when the drawer is opened and closed.
