Summit CR424WH Instruction Manual page 7

Before making the countertop cutout, check for clearance. See if the cooktop will
clear the front and side walls of the base cabinet. It is also important to provide
enough ventilation.
Adequate ventilation of the space below the countertop must be provided to
ensure proper operation of the cooktop. Heat transferred from the cooktop
bottom pan during operation will overheat an improperly ventilated area.
Allow a 2" (51mm) minimum clearance between the bottom of the metal pan of
the cooktop and any combustible surface located below, e.g., the upper edge of
a drawer installed below the cooktop. Failure to provide proper clearances and
ventilation may result in a fire hazard.
Countertop cutout dimensions are shown in the figure below.
Note : When making the countertop, put a radius at the corners of the cutout (a
radius of ¼" is typical). This will keep the countertop from cracking.
Follow the countertop manufacturer's instructions regarding the minimum
corner radius and reinforcement of corners.
