Step 2: Prepare Countertop Cutout
For installation with a Bosch cooktop, refer
to Part A and Figure 7 (Page 12).
For installation with another brand of cook-
top, refer to Part B (Page 13).
For all installations verify that all cutouts will
clear the inside of the front countertop
support rail, and that the cooktop and vent
will be centered left to right within the
cutout. Also, make certain that the front
and rear cutouts are straight and parallel to
the front edge of countertop and the rear
backsplash and/or wall. Assure that the
side cutouts are square to the front and rear
cutouts. All illustrations and dimensions are
based on standard 24” deep by 36” high
American style base cabinets with 25”
countertops.
When installing laminated or solid surface
countertops such as Surell™ and Corian
®
,
be sure to follow the countertop
manufacturer’s instructions regarding
minimum comer radii, reinforcement of
corners, etc.
For overhead cabinet and cooktop side
clearances consult cooktop Installation
Instructions.
A. For installation with a cooktop (Figure 7
and Table 2)
Provide an opening in the countertop as
specified in Table 3 (Page 13). Make sure
that the distance from the front of the
countertop to the front of the cutout is
not less than dimension ”SB”. Verify that
the available flat countertop is
greater than dimensions “OW” by “OD”.
Make certain that the backsplash thickn-
ess does not exceed dimension “BT”.
