Installing Built-In Models

Built-In models require installation into a countertop before
operation. Two types of built-in installation are available, flush
mount and trim ring. Use the following information and the
appropriate procedure to install a built-in unit.
Preparing the Installation Site
Both types of built-in installation require the same general
cabinet specifications. The unit is designed to allow easy
removal of the electronic components from the underside of the
unit without having to remove the installed ceramic glass top.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that the installation location allows
access to the underside of the unit for maintenance and
cleaning after it has been placed into the countertop. Other
specifications include:
• Make sure a grounded electrical receptacle of the correct
voltage, size, and plug configuration is within reach of the
unit's 1800 mm (71") power cord inside the cabinet. See
the SPECIFICATIONS section for details.
• Make sure a vertical surface for control panel installation
is available in the cabinet within reach of the combined
1397 mm (55") control cables that connect the induction
range to the control panel.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 38 mm (1-1/2") will
be available between the sides of the unit and any interior
surface.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 51 mm (2") will be
available between the front and back of the unit and any
interior surface.
• Make sure a minimum clearance of 114 mm (4-1/2") will be
available between the bottom of the unit and any interior
surface.

Ventilation Requirements
Proper ventilation of the cabinet below a built-in unit is required
to prevent over-heating the electronics in the unit. Proper
ventilation provides cool, intake air to the front of the unit and
an escape for the hot, exhaust air from the back of the unit.
• For standard installations, a ventilation opening with a
minimum size of 10 x 25 cm/258 square cm (4" x 10"/40
square inches) is required behind the air exhaust openings
on the back of the unit, starting no more than 51 mm (2")
down from the top of the unit. An additional 10 x 25 cm/
258 square cm (4" x 10"/40 square inch) ventilation opening
is required in the front of the cabinet to provide cool intake
air. Louvered or grill-style panels should be installed in the
openings.
• For installations where the cabinet is against a wall or no
rear ventilation is possible, keep the front control-side of
the cabinet open. If the front cannot be left open, install two
ventilation openings in the front panel of the cabinet, one
at the bottom of the cabinet and one near the control panel
at the top of the cabinet. Each opening must be a minimum
size of 10 x 25 cm/258 square cm (4" x 10"/40 square
inches). DO NOT install a shelf, partition, or any other
equipment inside the cabinet underneath the unit—the
space must remain wide open for air circulation.
NOTE: Make sure the interior temperature of the cabinet
does not rise above 50°C (122°F) while the induction
range is operating. If the temperature rises too high,
additional ventilation openings or forced air cooling will
be required.
