It is recommended that all electrical connections be made
by a licensed, qualified electrical installer.
Location Requirements
Make sure you have everything needed for correct installation.
It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with the
installation clearances specified in these instructions.
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 for your cooktop model number and approved
combinations of cooktops and ovens that can be installed.
If you do not find this label, your cooktop may not be
approved for use over an undercounter built-in oven.
Contact your dealer to confirm that your cooktop
is approved.
■
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.
■
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.
Given dimensions are minimum clearances.
■
Grounded electrical supply is required. See “Electrical
Requirements” section.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with
your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials
used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.
