INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
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.

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
