INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Install Cooktop
Decide on the final location for the cooktop.
1. Open carton as instructed on product packaging.
2. Remove shipping materials and tape from cooktop.
3. Remove the removable grease filter by lifting the filter out.
4. For island or peninsula installations, go to the “Rotate Blower
- Optional” section.
5. (For some installations only): Installation of the lower
control panel is required for installations when the cabinet
front cutout is greater than 5¾" (14.6 cm) from the top of the
countertop.
a.) Install the lower control panel in the bottom of the cabinet
cutout as shown in the following illustration using the
screws from the hardware pack.
b.) Position the cooktop in the countertop cutout. The main
control panel should overlap the top of the lower control
panel as shown in the following illustration.
NOTE: For some cabinet styles, it may be necessary to
reinforce the front of the cabinet by attaching a brace from
front to rear inside the cabinet under the burner box.
6. Using 2 or more people, remove the cooktop from the carton.
REMEMBER: An undercounter built-in oven cannot be
installed under this cooktop.
7. Place cooktop right side up into the cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is
parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is
needed, lift entire cooktop up from the cutout to avoid
scratching the countertop.
8. Connect blower exhaust scroll to ducting.
9. Use vent clamps to secure the ducting to the blower exhaust
scroll.
10. Reinstall grease filter.
11. Reinstall vent grille.

by loosening the nuts around the blower inlet, accessible inside
