When installing the cooktop into a laminated (Formica, etc.) or synthetic (Corian,
etc.) countertop, radius the corners of the cutout to prevent cracking of the
countertop.
Follow the countertop manufacturer's instructions regarding the minimum corner
radius, use of heat reflective tape, reinforcement of corners, etc.
If cabinet storage space is to be provided directly above the cooktop, the risk of
personal injury may be reduced by installing a ventilating hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the face of the cabinets.
Both models are designed to allow installation in standard 24 inch deep base
cabinets with 25 inch overall depth countertops. Deeper cabinets and
countertops may be used to provide required clearances to combustible rear wall
materials or for design purposes.
The specified cabinet dimensions must be provided. The cabinet and/or
countertop must completely enclose the recessed portion of the countertop.
All contact surfaces between the appliance and the countertop must be solid
and level.
