Step #4: Installing The Cooktop - Summit CR1115 Instruction Manual

Step #4
Installing the Cooktop
Strips of foam sealant have already been installed around the outer
1.
edge of the underside of the cooktop. This special sealant prevents
liquid from infiltrating into the cabinet. Additionally, the mounted sealant
helps prevent damage to the countertop if the cooktop should ever
need to be removed for servicing.
Attach the mounting brackets supplied with the SUMMIT cooktop (refer
2.
to Figs. 6-7-8) to the inside bottom surface of the cutout. The brackets
are to be mounted on opposing sides. Center the bracket in the
opening, flush with the countertop and secure with long self-tapping
screws (included). Position the cooktop in the cutout opening and press
firmly on all sides to seal the frame into the sealant strips. Secure the
cooktop to the brackets from underneath with the small sheet metal
screws that are supplied. There are two mounting brackets for the
single and double glass ceramic cooktops and four brackets for the
triple glass ceramic cooktop. These brackets are designed to tighten
the cooktop and then seal it onto the counter to avoid any movement of
the cooktop and to provide good insulation.
