BEFORE INSTALLATION
Before installation, please ensure the following:
A suitable disconnection switch is incorporated in the permanent wiring, mounted and
z
positioned to comply with the local wiring rules and regulations. A means of disconnection
with at least a 3 mm air gap contact separation in all poles must be incorporated into
the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules, unless the local wiring rules allow for
alternative means.
The benchtop is made of a heat resistant material.
z
The power supply cable is not accessible through cupboard doors or drawers.
z
There is adequate flow of cool air from the cabinetry to the base of the cooktop. You
z
may ventilate from adjacent cupboards, but ensure that the available air supply will not
be restricted.
The ventilation area must be at least two 50mm diameter holes or of an equivalent area.
z
the isolating switch is easily accessible by the customer.
z
You use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes (such as ceramic tiles) for the wall surfaces
z
surrounding the cooktop.
The cooktop will not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing
z
machine or clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the cooktop electronics.
If the cooktop is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.
z
The installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable standards
z
and regulations.
You consult local building authorities and by-laws if in doubt regarding installation.
z
During installation, please ensure the following:
Flush mounting or sealing this appliance into the bench with silicone or glue may make
z
future servicing difficult. Fisher & Paykel will not be liable for any costs associated with
removing or replacing a sealed-in appliance, nor for repairing any damage that may be
incurred by doing this.
Seal exposed bare edges of the cutout with an oil-based paint or moisture-proof
z
polyurethane to prevent possible moisture creeping between the cooktop trim and
the benchtop.
Take extreme care not to chip, crack, or break the top glass surfaces during installation.
z
A heavy metal tool or part accidentally dropped on the glass could damage it.
If, after following the instructions given, correct performance cannot be achieved, please
z
contact your nearest Fisher & Paykel Authorised Service Centre, Customer Care, or contact
us through our local website listed at the end of this document.
WARNING!
The owner carries all risk for flush mounting the cooktop. The owner must ensure the
cooktop has been cut out from the countertop before servicing can be carried out.
Fisher & Paykel will not be liable for any costs associated with removing or replacing a flush-
mounted and/or sealed-in product, nor for repairing any damage that may be incurred by
doing this.

INITIAL CONSIDERATIONS
We recommend installing products in separate cutouts with a minimum distance of 5mm
between the glass edges. If installing multiple products adjacent to each other within the
same cutout, a separate under-bench joining strip kit is required for installation (part number
534731). The kit is available from the nearest Fisher & Paykel Authorised Service Centre or our
website www.fisherpaykel.com.
If installing different products adjacent to each other (eg a wok burner next to an induction
cooktop), the minimum clearance measurements and cutout dimensions for the different
products may vary. Always use the greater distance.
