Installation notes

Seal between cooktop and counter-
top

Damage caused by incorrect in-
stallation.
Using sealant under the cooktop
could result in damage to the cook-
top and the countertop if the cook-
top ever needs to be removed for
servicing.
Do not use sealant between the
cooktop and the countertop.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the cooktop provides a sufficient seal
for the countertop.
Sealing strip
Dismantling the cooktop for service
purposes may damage the sealing
strip underneath the edge of the
cooktop.
Always replace the sealing strip be-
fore reinstalling the cooktop.
Tiled countertop
Grout lines  and the shaded area un-
der the cooktop frame must be smooth
and even. If they are not, the cooktop
will not sit flush with the countertop and
the sealing strip underneath the cook-
top will not provide a good seal be-
tween the cooktop and the countertop.
