PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
Prior to installing your cooktop, ensure the following:
The local distribution conditions (nature of gas and pressure) and the adjustment of
z
the appliance are compatible. For adjustment conditions for this appliance see 'Gas rate
summary'.
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 3mm 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.
There is a power outlet within reach of the power supply cable. This must be accessible
z
after installation. The power supply cable should not touch any metal parts.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available
z
from authorised Fisher & Paykel Service Agents.
The supply connection point (gas shut-off valve) is accessible after installation.
z
The benchtop is made of a heat-resistant material.
z
The installation complies with all the requirements of Australian and New Zealand Gas
z
Installation Standards (AS/NZS 5601.1.2010), including that the product has to be installed
so that the surface temperature of any nearby combustible surface will not exceed 65 OC
above ambient. Refer to 'Clearance Dimensions'.
If installed with an approved flexible hose, the hose should not come in contact with
z
the bottom of the appliance or any sharp edges. Flexible hose assemblies should be
AS/NZS 1869 Class B or Class D certified with a maximum length of 1.20m.
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.
Remove all internal and external packaging and recycle it responsibly where possible.

INITIAL CONSIDERATIONS
During installation, please ensure the following:
Seal the 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 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.
