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.
It is the installer's responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial rating plate is located on the underside of the
cooktop burner box.

Check the cooktop base for an approved installation label.
Verify approved oven model number that can be installed with
your cooktop model number. If you don't find this label, your
cooktop should not be used over a built-in oven.
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.
When installing cooktop over an undercounter built-in oven,
do not fasten cooktop to countertop with clamps or seal
cooktop to countertop. This will make the cooktop easier to
remove if future servicing becomes necessary.
Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with
these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are minimum
clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance.
Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical
Requirements" section.
